Mapping landowners' willingness to allow recreational deer harvest on their property for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We demonstrate an approach for mapping the probability of landowners' willingness to allow wildlife management actions on their property using chronic wasting disease as a case study. Larger property sizes were associated with higher landowner willingness. We mapped predictions across the contiguous United States at the census tract level.

Modeling localized deer removal strategies for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used an agent‐based model developed for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Midwestern white‐tailed deer to assess localized deer removal strategies and how local conditions affect management outcomes. Parcel‐based and ring culling were most effective at reducing CWD prevalence and persistence, and transmission was always greater at greater deer ...

The Impact of Urban Land Use Patterns on the Synergy of Pollution Reduction and Carbon Mitigation

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To tackle global climate change and fulfill China's dual carbon objectives, the coordinated abatement of pollution and carbon emissions has emerged as a pivotal focus for sustainable urban development. Land use patterns and pollutant emissions are deeply connected within cities, making them a crucial lever for advancing synergistic pollution ...

Significant Imbalance Between Human Activities and Ecosystem Services in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China: Evidence From an Improved Coupling Coordination Degree Model

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maintaining balanced interactions between humans and ecosystems in plateau regions is critical to achieving global sustainable development. However, existing methodologies are insufficient to fully elucidate the complex coupling and coordination relationships between human activities and ecosystems, as well as the sustainable development ...

Assessing Land Use Conflict in the Yangtze River Middle Reaches Megalopolis for 2030: Integrating Landscape Pattern Analysis and Scenario Simulation to Address Uncontrolled and Severe Conflict Zones

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land use conflicts (LUCs) significantly impact regional food security and ecological security. Identifying LUCs helps cut down ecological risks. This study focuses on the Yangtze River Middle Reaches Megalopolis (YRMRM) as a case, employing a landscape pattern approach to construct a land use conflict measurement model.

Ecological Functional Zoning and Multi‐Scenario Prediction in the Core Economic Region of a Tropical Island: A Case Study of the Haikou Economic Circle, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecological zoning, by accurately identifying regional ecological issues, supports the mitigation of ecological and environmental challenges brought by rapid urbanization. It plays a crucial role in advancing national ecological civilization and high‐quality urban development.
