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

open access: yesIntegrative 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.

Ecohydrological characteristics of biocrusts explain divergent responses of biocrusts and grasses to rainfall reduction

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Drylands are mainly structured by both vascular plants and biological soil crusts (biocrusts), the latter often regarded as a self‐organizing component of these ecosystems.

From Crisis to Resilience: Rethinking Urban Flooding and Groundwater Recharge in Bengaluru City, India

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bengaluru, a primary metropolitan centre in India, is currently grappling with the dual crises of urban flooding and severe groundwater depletion. These challenges are driven by rapid urbanization, which has seen built‐up areas increase from 42% to 86% over two decades, resulting in a dramatic loss of vegetation and wetlands.

Generation cycles in experimental populations of a multivoltine insect

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 782-794, May 2026.
Although theory suggests various mechanisms by which environmental and ecological factors may drive generational fluctuations, our field‐cage experiment is the first to demonstrate how internal dynamics and external disturbances jointly produce synchronised, large‐scale outbreak cycles.

Sun Bear Ecology and Conservation: Multiscale Habitat Associations in Southeast Asia 马来熊的生态与保护:东南亚地区的多尺度生境关联研究

open access: yesIntegrative 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,

Reoccurrence of Dust Storms in South Asia and Their Implications for Vegetation Health 南亚沙尘暴的再次出现及其对植被健康的影响

open access: yesIntegrative 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

open access: yesFunctional 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

Incorporating cyclone risk in the design of marine protected and conserved areas as an ecosystem‐based adaptation approach

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) are promoted as an ecosystem‐based adaptation (EbA) approach to increase community and ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, traditional approaches to MPCA design typically do not consider climate risk or habitat condition under a climate threat.

降雨因子对粉煤灰产流产渣的影响

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2017
为研究降雨因子对粉煤灰产流产沙的影响,揭示粉煤灰产流产渣的规律,采用径流小区定位观测试验,研究雨季期粉煤灰径流小区在自然降雨条件下的产流产渣特征。结果表明:(1)观测期内总降雨量为1 160.0 mm,侵蚀降雨量为720.7 mm,7月份降雨、侵蚀降雨均为最多,分别为409.6 mm和217.1 mm,暴雨的侵蚀降雨量最大,为280.1 mm;(2)7月份产流产渣最多,3个小区的产流产渣量分别为0.72,1.06,0.67 m3和0.30,0.90,0.21 kg,暴雨的产流产渣量最大,分别为0.62 ...

Predicting Democracy Support in the Middle East and North Africa

open access: yesWorld Affairs, Volume 188, Issue 3, Fall 2025.
ABSTRACT Democracy support among Arab citizens has decreased noticeably in the past decade. The Arab Barometer data demonstrates more than an average of 15–30 points drop‐in democracy support depending on the country considered. The present research utilizes the seventh wave data set offered by the Arab Barometer conducted between October 2021 and July
