Exploring saiga horn consumption in Singapore [PDF]

Oryx, 2018
AbstractThe Critically Endangered saiga antelope Saiga tatarica faces an uncertain future, with populations dwindling from epidemics in its range countries, and ongoing demand for its horns in the traditional Chinese medicine trade. Singapore is a major hub for the global trade in saiga horn and an important consumer country, with saiga horn products ...

Making vertebrate fossil radiocarbon dates more useful for global scientific research

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 1309-1335, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of bones is essential for reconstructing timelines of species' occurrences, domestication, extinction, migrations, and interactions with Quaternary environments. Many studies compile these chronologies at continental to global scales by aggregating radiocarbon dates from various sources, often balancing data quantity and ...

Why Conservation of Australian Native Temperate Grasslands Needs to Occur at Different Scales—From Landscapes to Patches, and From Governments to Individuals

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Native temperate grasslands are among the most widespread biomes in Australia, and they have been extensively modified, primarily for livestock grazing and cropping on the fertile soils ideal for agriculture. In the 1980s and 1990s, foundational work by Jamie Kirkpatrick and others brought attention to the widespread loss of these ecosystems ...

A global indicator of species recovery

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Monitoring progress toward meeting global biodiversity goals involves several indicators, including, at the species level, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List Index (RLI) and the Living Planet Index (LPI). However, at present, there is no indicator specifically for tracking species recovery, despite this being ...

Seismic Anisotropy in the Mantle Wedge Revealed by Tectonic Tremors Beneath Bungo Channel, Southwest Japan

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 18, 28 September 2025.
Abstract Tectonic tremors, which are dominated by shear‐wave (S‐wave) energy, provide a valuable tool for measuring seismic anisotropy. We performed continuous S‐wave splitting analysis using seismic data from stations above the tremor belt in the Nankai Trough subduction zone.

Study of Saiga Horn Using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
The saiga horns have been investigated the using of modern analytic methods. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with mass-spectrometric (MS and MS/MS) detection and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) were used.
