Seasonal drivers of plant–soil–microbial community structure and functions in Western Himalayan grasslands, Pakistan

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Plant species richness was greater in summer in both alpine and subalpine grassland ecosystems. Soil moisture demonstrates significant positive correlations with soil organic carbon and total nitrogen across seasonal periods. Microbial α‐diversity peaks during summer but maintains functional stability across seasons.

Grazing effects on feeding guilds of ground‐dwelling arthropods vary with season and vegetation types in Mongolian grasslands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Seasonal variations in grazing impacts on vegetation in drylands vary with vegetation types. In Mongolian grasslands, seasonal variations in grazing effects on vegetation are greater in summer, when vegetation is more developed, than in spring; however, in desert steppe regions, where vegetation is sparse, these seasonal variations are smaller.

Impact of Sovereign Debt Maturity on Fiscal Sustainability

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study is the first to investigate the impact of the term structure of public debt on fiscal sustainability. We adopt the widely used backward‐looking measure of fiscal sustainability—fiscal responsiveness as proposed by Bohn. Using data from De Graeve and Mazzolini and focusing on a sample of 19 most developed countries, we demonstrate ...

Sexual dimorphism in hormone–gut microbiome associations across reproductive states in wild giant pandas

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Gut microbiota–host endocrine interactions in wild mammals remain poorly understood. Giant pandas experience seasonal dietary shifts and constrained annual reproduction, offering an ideal model to investigate microbiome–endocrine coupling. We integrated fecal hormone profiling, microsatellite‐based individual identification, and gut microbiome ...

Seasonal Spatial Population Density Distribution Dynamics of Lynx and Ungulate Prey in Cold‐Temperate Coniferous Forests 寒温带针叶林猞猁和有蹄类猎物种群密度空间分布的季节性动态研究

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
This study used camera trap data from 6 years between 2016 and 2021 and generalized linear mixed models to explore the factors that influence the spatial density distribution of lynx and its prey populations in warm and cold seasons in Inner Mongolia Hanma National Nature Reserve, China.

Burrow‐Based Monitoring of Chinese Pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) Reveals Importance of Core Natural Habitat in Hong Kong 中華穿山甲 (Manis pentadactyla)洞穴監測揭示香港內陸郊野地帶的重要性

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
Relatively little is known about the distribution or habitat requirements of Hong Kong's population of the Chinese pangolin. Between 2018 and 2021 we searched for pangolin burrows and deployed camera traps on the burrows. We then analyzed habitat suitability at multiple scales to determine the factors that are key in driving pangolin distributions in ...
