Animals such as koalas, sea turtles, and polar bears find themselves at the heart of the crisis, and those three are just a start. Some reports say a third of the world's animal species will become extinct by the middle of the century if humans continue to release harmful greenhouse gases...
of the western Great Basin. Over the next one hundred years, Lahontan cutthroat were extirpated from 9 lakes. The mountain ecosystems of Independence Lake (California) and Summit Lake (Nevada), representing only 0.4% of the historic lake habitat, contain the last native self-sustaining adfluvial...
Major infrastructure projects, such as dams in Laos, also endanger the animals' fragile recovery. Eng Cheasan, the director of Cambodia's fisheries administration, hailed the dolphins as a "national treasure" and said the government was committed to "eliminating all threats to the survival of thi...
“This is the first strategic national assessment ever done for Australian freshwater fish and is a wake-up call,” Professor Lintermans said. “Of note is the fact that 27 of the 88 threatened fishes are currently undescribed or described since 2010, highlighting that we have likely lost seve...
forward: reducing threats, boosting hatchling numbers and greater coordination can turn the fate of the leatherback turtle around. We have it within our power to protect these animals and enable them to thrive, but all those who have a hand in shaping their future need to work together to do...
An almost neglected aspect of climate change is its effects on sensory ecology and sexual signals of animals. Signals used in intraspecific communication a... José,Martín,Pilar,... - 《Functional Ecology》 被引量: 46发表: 2013年 A physico-chemical survey of inland lakes and saline ponds: ...
For example, after the Ice Ages, when the great glaciers melted and the earth became warmer, many species died because they could not live in a warmer climate. Newer species that could survive a warmer environment took their places. People can also cause the extinction of plants and animals....
Early-Māori were prolific users of aquatic resources43,44 and were adept at food cultivation and translocation. The Polynesian explorers who settled New Zealand (the first Māori) brought with them plants (sweet potato, taro and yam)45,46 and animals (Pacific dogs and rats)47. Post settlement...
Understanding the distributions of animals in space and over time has become increasingly important to evaluate ecological processes, to understand how species may respond to anthropogenic threats, including climate change, and to measure the impact of conservation efforts [1]. Knowledge gaps in geograph...
