Rural household's willingness to pay for irrigation water use: An application of contingent valuation method, in the case of North Shewa zone, Ethiopia

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 9, Issue 4, Page 943-959, November 2023., 2023
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate household's willingness to pay (WTOP) for irrigation water use (IWU) per timad (0.25 ha) of the irrigable land per year and to analyze determinants of WTOP for IWU at individual households based on the contingent valuation method (CVM).

Tropical and subtropical Asia's valued tree species under threat

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 3, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Tree diversity in Asia's tropical and subtropical forests is central to nature‐based solutions. Species vulnerability to multiple threats, which affect provision of ecosystem services, is poorly understood. We conducted a region‐wide, spatially explicit assessment of the vulnerability of 63 socioeconomically important tree species to ...

Named Entity Recognition of Ancient Poems Based on Albert‐BiLSTM‐MHA‐CRF Model

open access: yesWireless Communications and Mobile Computing, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The extraction and construction of the knowledge graph related to the entity of ancient poems are helpful to excavate the connection between ancient poems, and it is of great significance to inherit the traditional Chinese culture. This paper proposes an Albert‐BiLSTM‐MHA‐CRF model for entity extraction in ancient poems.

Natural enemies have inconsistent impacts on the coexistence of competing species

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 90, Issue 10, Page 2277-2288, October 2021., 2021
Using a large competition experiment and a modern coexistence theory framework, the authors tested the impact of a generalist parasitoid wasp on competition between Drosophila hosts. They found the generalist natural enemy could alter the fitness differences between Drosophila species, but that the impact on pairwise coexistence was mixed. Abstract The

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
