Aquatic protected area system in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau: establishment, challenges and prospects

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Conservation of wetlands on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau is vital to the ecological security of China and even all of Asia. In this study, we investigated the aquatic protected area system established by the Chinese government in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau ...

Priorities for translating goodwill between movement ecologists and conservation practitioners into effective collaboration

Conservation Science and Practice, 2023
Addressing ongoing biodiversity loss requires collaboration between conservation scientists and practitioners. However, such collaboration has proved challenging.

The potential for voluntary instruments to achieve conservation planning goals : the case of conservancies in South Africa [PDF]

, 2011
Spatial prioritizations and gap analyses are increasingly undertaken to allocate conservation resources. Most spatial prioritizations are conducted without specifying the conservation instruments to be implemented and gap analyses typically assess ...

Filling the Gap, Evolutionarily Conserved Omp85 in Plastids of Chromalveolates [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Chromalveolates are a diverse group of protists that include many ecologically and medically relevant organisms such as diatoms and apicomplexan parasites. They possess plastids generally surrounded by four membranes, which evolved by engulfment of a red alga.

Coupling Biodiversity and Human Pressures to Indicate Conservation Priorities for Threatened Waterfowl Species: A Case in the Henan Yellow River Wetland National Nature Reserve

Land, 2023
Following severe anthropogenic pressure from rapid economic development, wetland biodiversity is now decreasing alarmingly, thus leading to adverse effects. Protected areas (PAs) can be crucial conservation tools to secure wetland biodiversity.

SL(2, Z) Multiplets of Type II Superstrings in $D < 10$ [PDF]

, 1997
It has been shown recently that the toroidally compactified type IIB string effective action possesses an SL(2, R) invariance. Using this symmetry we construct an infinite family of macroscopic string-like solutions permuted by SL(2, Z) group for type II

Gap analysis of social science resources for conservation practice [PDF]

Conservation Biology
Abstract Conservation is an inherently social process—people collectively endeavor to enact conservation. Yet, in conservation social science, research methodologies, training, and competency are less common than in natural sciences.

Calibrating an occupancy metric to monitor elusive territorial species at large scale: Application to the grey wolf population in France

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
Monitoring species in time and space is vital to identify changes in their status and to help define management measures to improve their conservation. Abundance is often used to monitor species at the population level. However, this metric is costly and

Effective interactions and fluctuation effects in spin-singlet superfluids

, 2013
We derive and evaluate one-loop functional flow equations for the effective interactions, self-energy and gap function in spin-singlet superfluids. The flow is generated by a fermionic frequency cutoff, which is supplemented by an external pairing field ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
