Assessing the Corn Belt as an anthropogenic barrier to migrating landbirds in the United States
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Migrating landbirds adjust their flight and stopover behaviors to efficiently cross inhospitable geographies, such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Sahara Desert. In addition to these natural barriers, birds may increasingly encounter anthropogenic barriers created by large‐scale changes in land use. One such barrier could be the Corn Belt in the

Study on the construction of environmental education system in Futian Mangrove Nature Reserve [PDF]
, 2013 环境教育是红树林自然保护区主要的功能之一，一些发达国家或者红树林保护开展较早的国家都在红树林湿地环境教育方面取得了很好的效果。在我国，从20世纪80年代中期以来，各省红树林自然保护区的环境教育已开展并取得了一定的成效，积累了一定的经验，对于红树林湿地知识的普及、环境保护意识的提高起到了重要的作用。随着红树林自然保护区的发展以及公众生态保护意识的提高，红树林自然保护区中的环境教育价值正在被社会广泛认可。 福田红树林自然保护区是以保护、研究、教育为目的而规划、建设和管理的特定区域 ...

On the normative roles of biodiversity and naturalness in conservation
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Nature is an opaque concept. Consequently, the term biodiversity conservation has replaced nature conservation in most conservation contexts. We review the conceptual indeterminacies that plague the terms nature and natural but then show that comparable difficulties plague biodiversity.

Research on Management Problem and Countermeasures of China Marine Protected Areas——In Binzhou Chenier Island and Wetland National Nature Reserve as an Example [PDF]
, 2015 海洋蕴藏的巨量资源是人类未来发展的物质基础，合理开发与保护海洋资源是人类实现永续发展的必然选择。面对海洋资源日益枯竭，海洋环境压力日益增大的现状，海洋保护区的建设和管理已经成为全球性的热点问题。然而，由于我国海洋保护区建设起步时间晚，海洋资源环境压力巨大等原因，导致海洋保护区管理过程中出现诸多问题，海洋保护区的建设和管理并未达到预期的保护效果。本文通过研究国内外海洋保护区的发展历程、概念、分类和作用，以滨州贝壳堤岛与湿地国家级自然保护区(以下简称：滨州贝壳堤岛与湿地保护区 ...

Exploring gaps, biases, and research priorities in the evidence for reptile conservation actions
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.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 ...

Evaluation System of Marine Protected Area Based on Social-ecological Systems（SESs） [PDF]
, 2016 海洋保护区是保护典型海洋生态系统和生物多样性、拯救珍稀濒危物种的重要工具。目前海洋保护区数量和面积不断增加，但许多海洋保护区并未得到有效的管理，“纸上公园”式的保护区仍大量存在，保护效果不理想。保护区管理效果差的重要原因之一是缺乏定期的跟踪或对比评估，对管理中存在的问题认识不清；因此开展保护区评估对促进管理行动的适应性调整、提升管理水平非常重要。 当前保护区管理效果评估研究存在的主要问题是：评估研究对象以陆地类型的保护区为主，缺乏适用于海洋保护区特性的评估体系；评估偏重管理过程 ...

Evaluation of Marine Protected Area and its Application:A Case Study of Xiamen [PDF]
, 2010 我国从20世纪80年代末就开始着手海洋保护区建设，目前已建立了19个国家级海洋自然保护区和52个地方级海洋自然保护区。这些自然保护区涵盖了中国海洋主要的典型生态类型，保护了许多珍稀濒危海洋生物物种，对海洋生物多样性和生态系统的保护发挥了重要作用。但是，近年来由于开发强度的加大，海洋自然保护区不断受到人类活动的侵害，保护区的生态安全受到严重威胁。 海洋自然保护区生态损害补偿是规范人们利用海洋保护区行为的有效手段。我国学术界和管理界虽然对海洋生态系统服务的价值评估已经进行了较深入的研究 ...

Evaluating protected areas’ coverage of threats to terrestrial biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and have expanded globally. However, increasing pressures on biodiversity make it difficult to achieve conservation goals. Using threat probability maps based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List and the World Database of Protected Areas, we analyzed the ...
