Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 71-78, June 2023., 2023 Oaks are often removed as part of longleaf pine restoration; however, it is unclear if oak patches produce important resources for native wildlife. We studied wildlife use of the transition between longleaf pine woodlands and hardwood hammocks. We found these areas support a variety of wildlife species and future management and restoration of longleaf ...

Modeling total predation to avoid perverse outcomes from cat control in a data‐poor island ecosystem
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Data‐hungry, complex ecosystem models are often used to predict the consequences of threatened species management, including perverse outcomes. Unfortunately, this approach is impractical in the many systems that have insufficient data to parameterize ecosystem interactions or reliably calibrate or validate such models.

Unravelling the processes between phenotypic plasticity and population dynamics in migratory birds
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 91, Issue 5, Page 983-995, May 2022., 2022 This work highlights the critical role of the stopover stage of northward migration in the influence of migration tactics and population dynamics of migratory birds across the whole annual cycle. The authors also demonstrate the key processes linking individual migration tactics and population dynamics.

Ecological Applications, Volume 31, Issue 6, September 2021., 2021 Abstract Species loss has attracted much attention among scientists for more than half a century. However, we have little information on the trends in phylogenetic and functional changes behind the species loss although this information is always asynchronous and important for conservation and management. We measured community trends in Anatidae (ducks

Using Wikipedia to measure public interest in biodiversity and conservation
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 412-423, April 2021., 2021 Abstract The recent growth of online big data offers opportunities for rapid and inexpensive measurement of public interest. Conservation culturomics is an emerging research area that uses online data to study human–nature relationships for conservation. Methods for conservation culturomics, though promising, are still being developed and refined.

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 115-129, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Anthropogenic noise is a globally widespread sensory pollutant, recognized as having potentially adverse effects on function, demography, and physiology in wild animals. Human population growth and associated changes in urbanization, transportation, and resource extraction all contribute to anthropogenic noise and are predicted to increase in ...

Effects of spatial autocorrelation and sampling design on estimates of protected area effectiveness
Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 1452-1462, December 2020., 2020 Abstract Estimating the effectiveness of protected areas (PAs) in reducing deforestation is useful to support decisions on whether to invest in better management of areas already protected or to create new ones. Statistical matching is commonly used to assess this effectiveness, but spatial autocorrelation and regional differences in protection ...

Guanotrophy: Waterbirds Pay for Using Resources at Their Wintering Habitats 鸟粪营养学 ：水鸟在越冬栖息地使用资源后留下回报
Integrative Conservation, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 382-397, December 2024.Significant waterbird colonisation was recorded in the wintering period (October through March in 2018–2019 and 2019–2020) in wetlands on Central Asian and East Australasian Flyways. Different limnochemical conditions influenced nitrate and phosphate concentrations.

Review of hyperdispersal in wildlife translocations
Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.Abstract Species translocation is a common tool to reverse biodiversity loss, but it has a high failure rate. One factor that contributes to failure is postrelease hyperdispersal, which we define as the long‐distance movement of individuals resulting in their failure to contribute to population establishment.
