Spectacled Flying‐fox conflicts—tucker, totem, taunt and threat 眼镜狐蝠的冲突——食物、图腾、挑战与威胁
Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 112-118, September 2023., 2023 Flying‐foxes worldwide have suffered population declines, including the Spectacled Flying‐fox of north‐east Australia which experienced a population crash of over 75% in <15 years. Persuading people that the Spectacled Flying‐fox is important, even vital for the rainforests and tall forests that they love, takes engagement, narrative and story‐telling.

World Water Policy, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 456-480, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Groundwater is a vital resource under threat in island communities. Karainagar, a 22 km2 island, is one of seven islands off the coast of Jaffna in Northern Sri Lanka, with its population of just about 11,000 persons, experiences seasonal water shortage, and salinity in groundwater as twin threats impacting on their lives.

Disasters, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 95-118, January 2022., 2022 This paper presents evidence relating to a forecast‐based cash and non‐food item distribution among vulnerable herder households during the 2017–18 dzud (extreme winter) season in Mongolia, and analyses the results of a quasi‐experimental study evaluating its impacts. An innovative approach in disaster risk reduction, forecast‐based financing (FbF) can

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 125-136, March 2026.We collated detections of the sun bear from new and previously published camera trap studies across its range. We then analysed these detections at two different spatial scales to assess the habitat associations and diel activity of this species. We found that the sun bear is tolerant to moderate habitat disturbances. ABSTRACT Degraded tropical forests,

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 362-380, September 2025.Occurrences of dust storms and long‐distance movement of dust across landscapes is constantly increasing in south Asia. This dust is expected to have profound impact on vegetation health and sustainability as dust may contribute to nutrient budgets of the forest ecosystems, while it could impart various stresses to the plants.

Multiple global change factors alter the scaling of nitrogen to phosphorus in alpine plants
Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 2044-2055, August 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometry and allometry of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) reflect nutrient absorption and dynamic allocation by plants, and can be regulated by global change factors (e.g. nitrogen enrichment, climate warming and altered precipitation). Yet, how multiple global

Pensando - Revista de Filosofia, 2016 Não parece haver, ao menos num primeiro olhar, qualquer ponto de convergência entre a literatura de Lampedusa e a filosofia de Kierkegaard. Contudo, com um pouco mais de investigação, tal percepção revela-se falsa. Ambos os autores situam-se no século XIX e, nesse sentido, há forte conexão entre ambos a partir de uma análise histórica, filosófica e ...

, 2014 土石流災害發生受到降雨的強度和空間變異性影響。因此，了解降雨的空間變異性特性是土石流減災的先決條件。在本研究中，針對不同降雨類型使用地理統計進行降雨空間變異特性分析，分別對夏季對流雨、颱風、梅雨和冬季鋒面雨進行分析，選取較適合的降雨空間變異特性。結果發現夏季對流雨的影響範圍最小 (約55 公里)，代表其空間變異大，而其他三種降雨類型影響範圍較大 (約69 公里) 則空間分布較均勻。因此，在研究中建議以夏季對流雨的空間變異特性，進行台北市雨量站網的評估。The intensity and spatial ...
