Constructing habitat networks to protect endangered migratory birds in the Jiaozhou Bay area by Xinyu Liu, Ye Zhao, Lin Fan

“…Our findings revealed that (1) land use, food source, and human disturbance are the three primary environmental variables influencing habitat suitability; (2) habitat networks in the bay area are centered around estuarine wetlands and mudflats, with a fragmentation trend of habitats from the ocean to inland areas; and (3) habitat patches and corridors closer to the ocean have higher centrality levels in the network compared to those further inland. …”

Tree seed dispersal modes affect forest resilience along savanna-forest boundaries by Max van der Ree, Gerard T Barkema, Arie Staal

“…In addition, these effects are more pronounced for larger forest patches that are spaced further apart. Moreover, recruitment and resilience in bird-dispersed forests display high sensitivity to bird behavioral parameters, suggesting that the community composition of frugivorous birds may be an important indirect driver of forest resilience. …”

Quantifying the impact of urban blue-green spaces on humid-heat exposure risk: A case study of Nanjing’s central urban area by Yueyue Ma, Chenfeng Xu, Zhijie Yang

“…The results indicated that high-risk humid-heat exposure areas were mainly concentrated in densely populated urban centers with fragmented UBGS; green spaces played a dominant role in regulating humid-heat exposure, with green area size being the most influential factor, while the regulatory effect of existing blue spaces was relatively limited; and the effectiveness of UBGS was significantly influenced by its spatial configuration, with complex-shaped and clustered green patches enhancing cooling efficiency. This study provides a novel perspective on the dynamics and driving mechanisms of urban UBGS and offers a scientific foundation for its future planning, conservation, and sustainable development.…”
