It is widely recognised that palaeoecology holds great potential to inform and support nature conservation, but that there are difficulties in knowledge exchange between academia and practitioners that inhibit the operationalisation of research. To facilitate the integration of palaeoecology into the conservation toolkit, it is essential to underst...

Introduction An understanding of animal behavior is critical to determine their ecological role and to inform conservation efforts. However, observing hidden behaviors can be challenging, especially for animals that spend most of their time underwater. Animal-borne devices are valuable tools to estimate hidden behavioral states. Methods We investig...

It is of important theoretical and practical value to scientifically evaluate tourism ecological security for the sustainable development of tourist cities. The study focuses on the “characteristics of the impact factors on tourism ecological security at different levels” of tourism ecological security that have been neglected in the previous liter...

Barriers such as hydroelectric dams inhibit migratory pathways essential to many aquatic species, resulting in significant losses of species, their unique life-history forms, and genetic diversity. Understanding the impacts of dam removal to species recovery at these different biological levels is crucial to fully understand the restoration respons...

The persistence of coral reefs requires the survival of adult coral colonies and their continued sexual reproduction despite thermal stress. To assess the trophic pathway (i.e., autotrophy and/or heterotrophy) used to develop gametes following bleaching, we thermally stressed Montipora capitata for one month at a time when corals in Hawai’i typical...

Despite global conservation efforts, biodiversity continues to decline, causing many species to face extinction. These efforts include designing protected areas to function as ecologically connected networks for habitat and movement pathway conservation. Ecological connectivity is defined as the connectivity of landscapes and seascapes that allows ...

Introduction Climate change caused by carbon emission and their impact on social and economic system have garnered global attention, particularly from the world's largest emitters. Therefore, knowledge of both driving factors and reduction potential for carbon emission is crucial to revise climate policies. The transportation industry plays a major...

Soil stoichiometric characteristics and aggregate stability are affected by vegetation restoration in degraded land. Yet, it is not known that how the aggregate stability is related to soil stoichiometric characteristics under different vegetation restorations. A 5-year in situ experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of vegetation resto...
