Heatwaves in Peninsular Malaysia: a spatiotemporal analysis. [PDF]

Sci Rep
AbstractOne of the direct and unavoidable consequences of global warming-induced rising temperatures is the more recurrent and severe heatwaves. In recent years, even countries like Malaysia seldom had some mild to severe heatwaves. As the Earth's average temperature continues to rise, heatwaves in Malaysia will undoubtedly worsen in the future.

Roadkills in Northern Peninsular Malaysia [PDF]

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
As Malaysia’s economy continues to grow, an ever-expanding road network is being built to support the new developments. Whilst roads increase accessibility to resources and connect human communities, they also bring with them a host of environmental problems such as destruction and fragmentation of habitat, poaching, pollution, and roadkills. Of these,

Using a crime prevention framework to evaluate tiger counter-poaching in a Southeast Asian rainforest

Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2023
Tigers are a conservation-reliant species, as multiple populations face the risk of local extinction due to poaching arising from the continued demand for their body parts. Preventing tiger poaching poses a challenge for the rangers responsible for their
