Abstract The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is the European Union's main instrument for agricultural planning, with a new reform approved for 2023–2027. The CAP intends to align with the European Green Deal (EGD), a set of policy initiatives underpinning sustainable development and climate neutrality in the European Union (EU), but several flaws cast

The uses and implications of avian vocalizations for conservation planning
Abstract There is a growing recognition that animal behavior can affect wildlife conservation, but there have been few direct studies of animal behavior in conservation programs. However, a great deal of existing behavioral research can be applied in the context of conservation. Research on avian vocalizations provides an excellent example.

Climate suitability as a predictor of conservation translocation failure
Abstract The continuing decline and loss of biodiversity has caused an increase in the use of interventionist conservation tools, such as translocation. However, many translocation attempts fail to establish viable populations, with poor release site selection often flagged as an inhibitor of success.

聚水阻渗措施对矮砧密植苹果园土壤水分、硝态氮及果树细根的影响
为提高土壤水肥利用效率,探索适宜渭北地区苹果园发展的聚水阻渗措施。通过大田试验,以矮砧密植苹果园为研究对象,分析不同聚水阻渗措施对土壤水分、硝态氮和果树细根的影响。结果表明:在垂直方向,防渗层、起垄+防渗层、起垄+覆膜+防渗层处理均可有效提高0-40 cm土层土壤含水量、硝态氮含量和细根根长密度,其中,起垄+防渗层和起垄+覆膜+防渗层处理土壤含水量和细根根长密度高于防渗层处理,硝态氮含量则低于防渗层处理。在50-100 cm土层,3种处理措施均降低土壤硝态氮含量,有效缓解硝态氮淋溶累积。在水平方向上 ...

Abstract Achieving global conservation policy goals requires the ability to set and measure progress toward science‐based targets for biodiversity. The species threat abatement and restoration (STAR) metric was developed to enable actors to set science‐based targets for species.

Elephant barrier behaviors in response to conflict mitigation fences
Abstract Human–wildlife conflict is a major conservation issue, particularly in lower income countries, where it affects marginalized people and leads to the extirpation of threatened species. Managers increasingly use fences to reduce this conflict but lack evidence on the effectiveness of these barriers, especially on whether this reduces the number ...

Freshwater biodiversity in China is threatened by multiple anthropogenic factors, and while there are some reasons to suppose it may be possible to bend the curve of biodiversity loss, the variety of threats and their likely interactions with ongoing climate change provide little basis for optimism. For example, the historic overexploitation of Yangtze

Abstract In recent years, the pace of Internet regulation around the world has quickened, with states increasingly confident that they can and should hold major platform companies to account. New laws have been developed to address the risks of digital technologies and law‐makers have drawn on familiar regulatory principles and legacy frameworks in ...

Social participation challenges and response strategies identified by adults aging with a disability
Abstract Social participation is likely to decrease among older adults as disability levels increase. However, it is a modifiable determinant of health that can impact older adults' well‐being and quality of life. Thus, this secondary data analysis aimed to understand what challenges older adults aging with a mobility or vision disability face with ...

笔者对云南电网采用的线路杆塔接地电阻的降阻措施进行全面总结,并着重对降阻措施进行评价。通过首次采用杆塔接地电阻分级,开创性地提出了"单位降级投入成本"指标,将杆塔降阻改造投入成本与产生效果进行综合考虑,提出了实用的杆塔降阻效果评估的新方法。同时,采用"成本(C)/效用(B)"评价方法进行经济性分析,对杆塔降阻效果量化评估。笔者分别对常用的4种杆塔降阻措施进行综合分析,总结了各降阻措施的优缺点。分析结果表明,在综合考虑接地电阻、改造经济性分析、腐蚀情况等条件下,根据杆塔接地电阻的超标情况选择不同的降阻措施,
