Environmental racism and air pollution: Pre and post the COVID‐19 economic shutdown
Abstract Decades of research demonstrates that minoritized groups are disproportionately affected by swathes of harmful pollutants, including air pollution, even controlling for low income. Would significantly reducing individual car traffic help reduce the EJ gap?

调查物种种群数量及适宜生境分布是合理保护野生动物和制定管理对策的基础。为了解鹅喉羚(Gazella subgutturosa)在哈密市的种群数量与适宜生境,2022年 7—9月,采用样线法对哈密市鹅喉羚种群数量和地理分布开展调查,采用Distance软件和MaxEnt模型对鹅喉羚的种群数量及适宜生境进行计算。结果表明:调查中发现鹅喉羚303群,共1 029只。鹅喉羚适宜生境主要位于天山南侧的荒漠地区,面积为1.725 9万 km2,占哈密市面积的12.15%,估算哈密市的种群密度为(2.013±0.

Opportunities, research gaps, and risks in allogenic ecosystem engineer mimicry
Abstract In an age of anthropogenically driven species loss and increasingly novel ecosystems, ecosystem engineer restoration is a process‐based approach to supporting ecosystem function. Many ecosystem engineers have low or declining population sizes.

Exploring gaps, biases, and research priorities in the evidence for reptile conservation actions
Abstract With over 21% of reptile species threatened with extinction, there is an urgent need to ensure conservation actions to protect and restore populations are informed by relevant, reliable evidence. We examined the geographic and taxonomic distribution of 707 studies that tested the effects of actions to conserve reptiles synthesized in ...

Assessing limits of sustainable seed harvest in wild plant populations
Abstract Seed harvesting from wild plant populations is key for ecological restoration, but it may threaten the persistence of the source populations. Consequently, several countries have set guidelines limiting the proportions of harvestable seeds. However, these guidelines are inconsistent and lack a solid empirical basis.

A global indicator of species recovery
Abstract Monitoring progress toward meeting global biodiversity goals involves several indicators, including, at the species level, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List Index (RLI) and the Living Planet Index (LPI). However, at present, there is no indicator specifically for tracking species recovery, despite this being ...

Finding floral and faunal species richness optima among active fire regimes
Abstract Changing fire regimes have important implications for biodiversity and challenge traditional conservation approaches that rely on historical conditions as proxies for ecological integrity. This historical‐centric approach becomes increasingly tenuous under climate change, necessitating direct tests of environmental impacts on biodiversity.
