Niche Partitioning and Facilitative Coexistence of Two Sympatric Pheasants Across a Gradient of Human Disturbance. [PDF]
This study reveals that Hainan Peacock‐Pheasants and Silver Pheasants coexist through distinct temporal and spatial niche partitioning. However, human disturbance disrupts their positive association, as the sensitive Peacock‐Pheasant avoids high‐impact areas while the tolerant Silver Pheasant persists. Consequently, anthropogenic pressure renders their

Study on Life History Strategies of Anurans in Tropical Rainforest: Lifespan and Age at Sexual Maturity. [PDF]
This study presents the first comprehensive analysis of lifespan and age at sexual maturity in seven common anuran species from Hainan Island's tropical rainforest, filling a critical gap in tropical amphibian ecology. The results reveal significant interspecific variation in lifespan (5 ~ 9 years) and maturity age (3 ~ 5 years), indicating a “slow ...

Scale Dependence of Woody Plant β-Diversity in a Tropical Rainforest Metacommunity. [PDF]
Using a scale‐explicit metacommunity framework in a tropical rainforest, we examined how woody plant compositional dissimilarity and its replacement and richness‐difference components vary across spatial extents. Compositional dissimilarity increased modestly with extent but remained consistently dominated by species replacement, while environmental ...

Population Status and Recovery Potential of <i>Dalbergia odorifera</i> Under Anthropogenic Disturbance: Evidence From Hainan Island, China. [PDF]
To explore the survival status and dynamics of wild populations of Dalbergia odorifera on Hainan Island, this study adopts field sampling combined with demographic analysis such as age class division and life table analysis. Results show that although the population is of growing type with abundant young individuals, there are structural gaps and false
