Human‐Caused Leopard Deaths in Sri Lanka Are Concentrated in Central Highlands' Estate Mosaics: Evidence From 17 Years of Mortality Records 人为因素导致斯里兰卡豹死亡事件集中于中部高地种植园镶嵌景观:来自 17 年死亡记录的证据

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Human‐caused leopard deaths in Sri Lanka averaged 9.65 ± 4.5 records year−1 over 17 years (2008–2024; n = 164), with records highly clustered in the central highland mosaic ecosystem. Mortality was dominated by adult males and driven primarily by snaring in plantation landscapes, and indicating an increase approximately 0.7–0.8 deaths per year.

Nitrogen addition alters adaptive strategies of a dominant plant species in an alpine meadow via shifts in traits and trait coordination

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nitrogen (N) deposition significantly impacts plant functional traits in alpine meadows, yet the adaptive strategies of dominant species remain unclear. Understanding these strategies is crucial for predicting alpine grassland vegetation changes and ecosystem ...
