Linking Ecosystem Risk, Health, Services to Ecological Security Assessment in the Yellow River Basin: Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Nonlinear Driving Characteristics

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A scientific assessment of ecological security (ES) and its nonlinear mechanism for key driving factors in the Yellow River Basin (YRB) is of great significance for ecological protection and sustainable development. This study proposes an ES assessment framework, which links ecosystem risk (ER), ecosystem health (EH), and ecosystem services ...

Land‐Use Thresholds and Spatial Regulation Oriented Toward Ecosystem Service Supply–Demand Balance: A Case Study of Jiangxi Province

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Imbalances between ecosystem service (ES) supply and demand constrain ecological governance and sustainable development. While spatial patterns of these imbalances have been widely studied, less attention has been paid to the land‐use thresholds and regulatory mechanisms needed to maintain ES balance. Using Jiangxi Province as a case study, we

The epigenetic landscape of plant defense: Unlocking nature's toolkit for new plant protection

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review examines how epigenetic mechanisms regulate plant immune gene activation, repression, and priming, then links these natural regulatory layers to emerging epigenetic editing, discussing their potential for precise, heritable crop protection and the challenges.

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Trait convergence under warming: drought tolerance, not thermal limits, mediates native–invader dynamics in alpine ecosystems

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climate warming and plant invasions jointly alter alpine ecosystems, but the mechanisms underlying these interactions remain unclear. A key to predicting ecosystem vulnerability is whether native and invasive species can sustain performance as conditions warm.

Plasma cathecolamines and nucleotide-related purine bases during mountain climbing

open access: yes, 1998
Climbing is a high-expenditure sport, consisting of aerobic and anaerobic exercise, performed at variable strain, sometimes for a long time. We aimed at defining the physiological changes to mountain climbing, related both to physical strain and acute ...

Transforming a Poaching Hotspot: Embedded NGO Governance Between State and Community in Southern China

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how a local environmental NGO in southern China transformed Guantouling Hill, once a prominent poaching hotspot along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, into a recognised model of community‐based biodiversity conservation.

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...
