Applying the Metacoupling Framework to Multi-Scalar Conservation Planning: An Analysis for the Endangered Indiana Bat

open access: yesSustainability
The ongoing biodiversity crisis, driven by human activity, climate change, and disease spread, is reflected by the rapid decline of animal populations across all phylogenetic groups. Bats exemplify a group highly susceptible to these threats. While threats to bats are often studied locally, global interactions remain overlooked.

Metacoupling of Water Transfer: The Interaction of Ecological Environment in the Middle Route of China's South-North Project. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Environ Res Public Health, 2022
At present, nearly half of the population of China live in water-deficient areas where water needs to be transferred from surrounding or remote water sources to meet local water demands.

Engineering Pt Single-Atom Doped SeS<sub>2</sub>/Ti<sub>3</sub>CNT<sub>x</sub> MXene with Molecularly Imprinted Polymer for Precision Pancreatic Cancer Diagnostics: DFT and Molecular Dynamics Perspectives. [PDF]

open access: yesSmall Methods
A novel approach is developed to pancreatic cancer screening by targeting the cyclophili‐B (CypB)protein using a molecularly imprinted polymer with the electrode material containing Pt single‐atom‐doped/SeS2‐Ti3CNTx MXene. The quantification of CypB in pancreatic cancer tissues provide an insight into the association of CypB with pancreatic cancer ...

Geography in the Anthropocene: Transforming our world for sustainable development

open access: yesGeography and Sustainability, 2022
The world is changing at an accelerating pace due to increased human exploitation of the earth's resources and the consequent climate change and biodiversity loss crises. As a transdisciplinary discipline studying the coupled human and nature systems and

Conflict or Coordination? The Spatiotemporal Relationship Between Humans and Nature on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 11, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Abstract As the Earth's Third Pole and the Asian water tower, the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP) plays a key role in global climate regulation and biodiversity maintenance. Living in harmony with nature is vital for local and global sustainable development. Current research on the conflicted or coordinated relationship between humans and nature on the QTP

A Hierarchical Framework for Unpacking the Nitrogen Challenge

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Abstract To feed the world population while mitigating pressing nitrogen (N) pollution problems, tremendous efforts have been devoted to developing and implementing N‐efficient technologies in crop or livestock production, but limited progress has been made.

A framework for lotic macrosystem research

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 12, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Abstract We analyze here the nature of research in freshwater macrosystem biology (especially lotic studies) from both conceptual and current research perspectives. The boundaries of permanent and transitional lotic macrosystems from the smallest to largest spatial extents are described. We contrast ecosystem vs.

Linking Multiscalar Fisheries Using Metacoupling Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Marine fisheries are social-ecological systems important for human health and livelihoods. However, research approaches that consider human–nature interactions within as well as between adjacent and distant fisheries are scarce.
