Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

Linguistic Analyses of Written Corrective Feedback for Chinese as a Second Language: ChatGPT Versus Human Teachers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study conducted linguistic analyses of the written corrective feedback (WCF) for Chinese as a second language (CSL) provided by chat generative pre‐trained transformer (ChatGPT) and human teachers (including preservice teachers and senior teachers).

Making Interview Multilingualism Visible: Transnational Chinese Language Teacher Identity Construction

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines multilingual practices in research interviews, focusing on English lexical insertions in Chinese‐language research interviews with teachers of Chinese in Australian secondary schools, and treating these code‐switches as analytically meaningful rather than incidental.

Examining the multi‐disciplinary origins of biophobia towards threatening and non‐threatening wildlife in a highly urbanised city in China

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2338-2352, July 2026.
Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping how people experience wildlife, reducing our shared spaces with local biodiversity. Fewer opportunities for human–wildlife interactions weaken our emotional attachments to nature and precipitate a loss of species knowledge and familiarity.

固態硼氫化鈉之溶解擴散模式建立與操作分析 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
本研究利用氫氧化鈉水溶液注入管中,管內置放之固態硼氫化鈉進行溶解實驗,固態錠表面溶解後,飽和硼氫化鈉濃度透過濃度差,擴散進入氫氧化鈉水溶液中。了解硼氫化鈉濃度擴散的情況,有利進行後續固態硼氫化鈉錠水解產氫實驗。利用質傳方程式建置系統之數學模式,系統之邊界條件為位置之函數,在假設濃度邊界層內之硼氫化鈉濃度分布為正弦函數下,解出濃度邊界層厚度為:擴散係數、氫氧化鈉水溶液流速及流動距離之函數。利用求得之濃度界層厚度關係,代回質傳方程式,可得系統內硼氫化鈉濃度對位置之關係,並計算出口溶液中硼氫化鈉之平均濃度 ...

Biodiversity‐driven spatial conservation planning to delineate temporally stable regions

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The accelerating loss of biodiversity underscores the critical need for effective conservation strategies, particularly in the face of climate change and anthropogenic pressures. We devised a conservation planning framework that adopts a temporal stacking approach to species distribution models and landscape connectivity analyses. These models

Internal physiological drivers of leaf development in trees: Understanding the relationship between non‐structural carbohydrates and leaf phenology

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1151-1164, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology is crucial for understanding plant growth and climate feedback. It affects canopy structure, surface albedo, and carbon and water fluxes. While the influence of environmental factors on phenology is well‐documented, the role of plant intrinsic factors ...

Investigating Drivers of Tiger Bone Glue Consumption in Vietnam 调查越南虎骨胶消费的驱动因素 Điều Tra Nguyên Nhân Dẫn Đến Tình Trạng Tiêu Thụ Cao Hổ Cốt Tại Việt Nam

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 115-124, March 2026.
We found the estimated use of tiger bone glue within the last 12 months to be 6.9%. We found a stated motivation of taking TBG to improve health, and by the suggestion of one's social group. We suggest reducing the acceptability of TBG as medicine and encouraging non‐animal‐based medicinal alternatives.

老化态度与老老年人工作记忆老化之间的关系

open access: yes, 2014
目的考察老化态度在工作记忆老化中的作用。方法分别使用横断数据和干预数据分析老化态度对工作记忆老化的影响模式。对43名75~95岁城市养老院老老年人实施数字工作记忆广度和老化态度测验。随机选取20名被试者作为干预组接受工作记忆训练。结果积极的内隐老化态度与较大的数字工作记忆广度关系密切。工作记忆训练取得中度效果(ES=0.59);但内隐与外显老化态度得分与工作记忆干预收益相关均不显著。结论老化态度在工作记忆老化中的作用可能更多地表现为对固有工作记忆能力的保护。

The Rhetoric of Disenchantment: Ghost Belief and Secular Critique in Early Twentieth‐Century China

open access: yesCognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract This study presents the first large‐scale empirical analysis of how ghosts and spirits were debated during China's early twentieth‐century secular transformation. Using a novel dataset of over 2000 digitized texts—including newspapers, periodicals, and essays from 1890 to 1949—we combine close reading, AI‐assisted annotation, and statistical ...
