The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

中国黑叶猴圈养种群现状分析

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2014
应用种群管理软件SPARKS 1.6及PMX对中国黑叶猴圈养种群的现状进行了统计分析。截至2012年12月31日,黑叶猴谱系记录了574只个体,目前种群存活个体数量为318只,分布在34家动物园或机构中。圈养种群野外捕获个体主要来源于20世纪70~90年代,目前保持稳定状态。圈养出生个体数则一直保持上升状态,是维持黑叶猴圈养种群增长的主要来源,2012年圈养出生数量占种群总数的87.4%。种群周期增长率λ=1.042,性比M:F=1:1.04,目前种群中能够繁殖的个体共110只(♂48只,♀62只 ...

An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure.

Constructed value of information with iterative scoring and parametric uncertainty to identify management‐relevant research priorities for a declining raptor species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

中国动物园大猩猩圈养种群现状分析

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2015
物种谱系是种群管理的必要前提,大猩猩被列为IUCN极危物种。中国动物园大猩猩圈养种群始于1973年,截至2013年12月31日,共有8只存活个体。为了更好地科学管理中国动物园大猩猩圈养种群,对收集到的大猩猩中国区谱系及其扩展谱系进行了统计学与遗传学分析。结果表明,种群平均增长率λ=0.968,呈下降趋势。种群奠基者共14只,潜在奠基者1只。种群保留了野生个体87.24%的基因多样性,无近亲繁殖情况。根据现状分析结果,中国动物园大猩猩圈养种群是一个极小的种群,该种群的发展壮大有待于加强国内自身繁殖 ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

陕西府谷杜松自然保护区杜松种群结构与生命表分析

open access: yes四川大学学报. 自然科学版, 2008
为了阐明杜松(Juniperus rigida)种群的年龄结构和未来发展趋势,合理保护现有资源,编制了该种群的静态生命表,绘制了存活曲线和死亡率曲线,以及4种生存函数曲线.结果表明:杜松种群数量少,幼苗更新不良,属于衰退型种群.杜松种群的存活曲线属于左偏正态型,该种群的死亡率与消失率变化趋势基本一致.龄级Ⅰ与Ⅱ的值为负,在Ⅵ龄级达到最大.导致种群衰退的原因有种子萌发和幼苗生长困难和比较严重的人为干扰.应当提高种子的萌发率,人工培育幼苗,形成不同龄级的种群更新体系,减少人为干扰,以达到保护杜松的目的 ...

浙江长兴扬子鳄种群遗传多样性研究

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2022
为有效保护浙江长兴尹家边扬子鳄保护区扬子鳄(Alligator sinensis)种群,丰富野放扬子鳄的遗传多样性,利用13个微卫星标记分析了该种群的遗传多样性,比较核心区和野放区种群的遗传多样性差异。结果显示:保护区扬子鳄种群共检测到31个等位基因,其中含2个稀有等位基因。野放区种群的平均有效等位基因数量(1.82)、平均观测杂合度(0.49)、平均期望杂合度(0.43)、平均多态信息含量(0.34)和平均香农信息指数(0.64)均低于核心区(1.89、0.52、0.46、0.37和0.70 ...
