Pangolin Distribution and Predicted Habitat Loss From the Nagmati Dam in Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park, Nepal. [PDF]
Ecol EvolChinese pangolin burrows in Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park showed a clumped distribution influenced by slope and NDVI. The proposed Nagmati Dam and reservoir will inundate key pangolin habitats, causing significant habitat loss. The environmental impact assessment of the dam ignored these threats, highlighting the need for urgent reassessment to ...

Provenance Variation in Functional Traits of European Forest Trees: Meta-Analysis Reveals Effects of Taxa and Age Despite Critical Research Gaps. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis meta‐analysis on intraspecific variation in European trees studied the frequency of provenance variation, provenance–environment interaction, clinal variation along the climate of origin or transfer distance. While identifying trait group specific patterns of variation, research gaps have been identified in terms of age and geographical ...
