Drivers of Nature‐Related Investment Strategies Among Institutional Investors

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Institutional investors are increasingly responding to biodiversity loss through nature‐related investment strategies. Using survey data from 557 institutional investors, this study examines the drivers of strategy selection and how biodiversity risk is integrated across investor types, sizes, and regions.

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...

High Grazing Pressure of Geese Threatens Conservation and Restoration of Reed Belts

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Reed (Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud.) beds are important habitat for marsh birds, but are declining throughout Europe. Increasing numbers of the native marsh bird, the Greylag goose (Anser anser L.), are hypothesized to cause reed bed ...

Hesperetin Mitigate Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis by Regulating Gut Microbiota and Acetate and Butyrate Levels via the Gut‐Lung Axis

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Hesperetin inhibits bleomycin‐induced idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis by regulating gut microbiota and acetate and butyrate levels via the gut‐lung axis. ABSTRACT In the post‐epidemic and aging era, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has become one of the major diseases endangering human health.

Mechanism of Alfalfa in Enhancing Goose Egg Yolk Flavor: An Analysis Based on Metabolomics and Quantitative Lipidomics

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organic egg production requires daily provision of coarse feed, fresh or dried forage, and silage to poultry. This study employed flavoromics, metabolomics, and quantitative lipidomics to investigate the effects of replacing 0% (CK), 10% (T10), and 20% (T20) of the basal diet of laying geese with alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) on the sensory ...

Demographic consequences of translocation of overabundant Canada geese breeding in urban areas

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Translocation is a common tool for managing nuisance Canada geese (Branta canadensis) in urban areas across North America. However, no previous research has assessed how translocation affects survival and philopatry at donor and release sites.
