| 1 | Population trends, threats, and conservation recommendations for waterbirds in China显示文摘Background: China is one of the countries with abundant waterbird diversity. Over the past decades, China's waterbirds have suffered increasing threats from direct and indirect human activities. It is important to clarify the population trends of and threats to waterbirds as well as to put forward conservation recommendations.Methods: We collected data of population trends of a total of 260 waterbird species in China from Wetlands International database. We calculated the number of species with increasing, declining, stable, and unknown trends. We collected threatened levels of waterbirds from the Red List of China's Vertebrates(2016), which was compiled according to the IUCN criteria of threatened species. Based on literature review, we refined the major threats to the threatened waterbird species in China.Results: Of the total 260 waterbird species in China, 84 species(32.3%) exhibited declining, 35 species(13.5%) kept stable, and 16 species(6.2%) showed increasing trends. Population trends were unknown for 125 species(48.1%). There was no significant difference in population trends between the migratory(32.4% decline) and resident(31.8% decline) species or among waterbirds distributed exclusively along coasts(28.6% decline), inland(36.6% decline), and both coasts and inland(32.5% decline). A total of 38 species(15.1% of the total) were listed as threatened species and 27 species(10.8% of the total) Near Threatened species. Habitat loss was the major threat to waterbirds, with 32 of the total 38(84.2%) threatened species being affected. In addition, 73.7%(28 species), 71.1%(27 species), and 57.9%(22 species) of the threatened species were affected by human disturbance, environmental pollution, and illegal hunting, respectively.Conclusions: We propose recommendations for waterbird conservation, including(1) strengthening conservation of nature wetlands and restoration of degraded wetlands,(2) enhancing public awareness on waterbird conservation,(3) improving the enforcement of Wildlife Protection Law and cracking down on illegal hunting,(4) carrying out longterm waterbird surveys to clarify population dynamics,(5) restoring populations of highly-threatened species through artificial intervention, and(6) promoting international and regional exchanges and cooperation to share information in waterbirds and their conservation. | Xiaodan Wang Fenliang Kuang Kun Tan Zhijun Ma | 2018 | Avian Research2018,9,2: | 12 |
| 2 | Fluvial terraces and their implications for Weihe River valley evolution in the Sanyangchuan Basin显示文摘Fluvial terraces are important geomorphic markers for modern valley development.When coupled with numeric ages,terraces can provide abundant information about tectonic,climatic,paleohydrological and the paleoenvironmental changes.On the basis of the paleomagnetic,electron spin resonance(ESR) and optically stimulated luminescence(OSL) dating,in addition to an investigation of local loess-paleosol sequences,we confirmed that 13 fluvial terraces were formed,and then preserved,along the course of the Upper Weihe River in the Sanyangchuan Basin over the past 1.2 Ma.Analyses of the characteristics and genesis of these terraces indicate that they resulted from the response of this particular river system to climate change over an orbital scale.These changes can further be placed within the context of local and regional tectonic uplift,and represent an alternation between lateral migration and vertical incision,dependent upon the predominance of climatic and tectonic controls during different periods.Most of the terraces are strikingly similar in that they have several meters of paleosols which have developed directly on top of fluvial deposits located on the terrace treads,suggesting that the abandonment of terraces due to river incision occurred during the transitions from glacial to interglacial climates.The temporal and spatial differences in the distribution patterns of terraces located on either side of the river valley indicate that a tectonic inversion occurred in Sanyangchuan Basin at-0.62 Ma,and that this was characterized by a transition from overall uplift to depression induced by fault activity.Synthesized studies of the Basin's terraces indicate that formation of the modern valley of the Upper Weihe River may have begun in the late Early Pleistocene between1.4-1.2 Ma. | GAO HongShan LI ZongMeng LIU XiaoFeng PAN BaoTian WU YaJie LIU FenLiang | 2017 | Science China Earth Sciences2017,60,3: | 9 |
| 3 | Quantitative analysis of planation surfaces of the upper Yangtze River in the Sichuan-Yunnan Region, Southwest China显示文摘Identification of the planation surfaces (PSs)is key for utilizing them as a reference in studying the long- term geomorphological evolution of the Upper Yangtze River Basin in the Sichuan-Yurman region,Southwest China.Using a combined method of DEM-based fuzzy logic and topographic and fiver profiles analysis and based on a comprehensive analysis of four morphometfic parameters:slope,curvature,terrain raggedness index, and relative height,we established the relevant fuzzy membership functions,and then calculated the membership degree (MD)of the study area.Results show that patches with a MD>80% and an area>0.4 km^2 correspond well to the results of Google Earth and field investigation,representing the PS remnants.They consist of 1764 patches with an altitude,area,mean slope,and relief of mostly 2000-2500 m above sea level (asl),0-10 km^2,4°-9°,0-500 m,respectively,covering 9.2% of the study area's landscape,dipping to southeast,decreasing progressively from northwest to southeast in altitude,and with no clear relation between each patch's altitude and slope,or relief.All these results indicate that they are remnants of once regionally continuous PSs which were deformed by both the lower crust flow and the faults in upper crust,and dissected by the network of Upper Yangtze River.Additionally,topographic and river profiles analysis show that three PSs (PS1-PS3)well developed along the main valleys in the Yongren-Huili region, indicating several phases of uplift then planation during the Late Cenozoic era.Based on the incision amount deduced from projection of relict river profiles on PSs, together with erosion rates,breakup times of the PS 1,PS2,and PS3 were estimated to be 3.47 Ma,2.19 Ma,and 1.45 Ma,respectively,indicating appearance of modem Upper Yangtze River valley started between the Pliocene to early Pleistocene. | Fenliang LIU Hongshan GAO Baotian PAN Zongmeng LI Huai SU | 2019 | Frontiers of Earth Science2019,13,1: | 7 |
| 4 | Seasonal and population differences in migration of Whimbrels in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway显示文摘Background:Conserving migratory birds is challenging due to their reliance on multiple distant sites at different stages of their annual life cycle.The concept of“flyway”,which refers to all areas covered by the breeding,nonbreeding,and migrating of birds,provides a framework for international cooperation for conservation.In the same flyway,however,the migratory activities of the same species can differ substantially between seasons and populations.Clarifying the seasonal and population differences in migration is helpful for understanding migration ecology and for identifying conservation gaps.Methods:Using satellite‑tracking we tracked the migration of Whimbrels(Numenius phaeopus variegatus)from nonbreeding sites at Moreton Bay(MB)and Roebuck Bay(RB)in Australia in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.Mantel tests were used to analyze the strength of migration connectivity between the nonbreeding and breeding sites of MB and RB populations.Welch’s t test was used to compare the migration activities between the two populations and between northward and southward migration.Results:During northward migration,migration distance and duration were longer for the MB population than for the RB population.The distance and duration of the first leg flight during northward migration were longer for the MB population than for the RB population,suggesting that MB individuals deposited more fuel before departing from nonbreeding sites to support their longer nonstop flight.The RB population exhibited weaker migration connectivity(breeding sites dispersing over a range of 60 longitudes)than the MB population(breeding sites concentrating in a range of 5 longitudes in Far Eastern Russia).Compared with MB population,RB population was more dependent on the stopover sites in the Yellow Sea and the coastal regions in China,where tidal habitat has suffered dramatic loss.However,RB population increased while MB population decreased over the past decades,suggesting that loss of tidal habitat at stopover sites had less impact on the Whimbrel populations,which can use diverse habitat types.Different trends between the populations might be due to the different degrees of hunting pressure in their breeding grounds.Conclusions:This study highlights that conservation measures can be improved by understanding the full annual life cycle of movements of multiple populations of Whimbrels and probably other migratory birds. | Fenliang Kuang Jonathan TColeman Chris JHassell Kar‑Sin KLeung Grace Maglio Wanjuan Ke Chuyu Cheng Jiayuan Zhao Zhengwang Zhang Zhijun Ma | 2020 | Avian Research2020,11,3: | 2 |

| 9 | Soil bacterial communities interact with silicon fraction transformation and promote rice yield after long-term straw return显示文摘Returning crop straw into the soil is an important practice to balance biogenic and bioavailable silicon(Si)pool in paddy,which is crucial for the healthy growth of rice.However,owing to little knowledge about soil microbial communities responsible for straw degradation,how straw return affects Si bioavailability,its uptake,and rice yield remains elusive.Herein,we investigate the change of soil Si fractions and microbial community in a 39-year-old paddy field amended by a long-term straw return.Results show that rice straw return significantly increased soil bioavailable Si and rice yield from 29.9%to 61.6%and from 14.5%to 23.6%,respectively,when compared to NPK fertilization alone.Straw return significantly altered soil microbial community abundance.Acidobacteria was positively and significantly related to amorphous Si,while Rokubacteria at phylum level,Deltaproteobacteria,and Holophagae at class level was negatively and significantly related to organic matter adsorbed and Fe/Mn-oxide-combined Si in soils.Redundancy analysis of their correlations further demonstrated that Si status significantly explained 12%of soil bacterial community variation.These findings suggest that soil bacteria community and diversity interact with Si mobility by altering its transformation,thus resulting in the balance of various nutrient sources to drive biological Si cycle in agroecosystem. | Alin Song Zimin Li Yulin Liao Yongchao Liang Enzhao Wang Sai Wang Xu Li Jingjing Bi Zhiyuan Si Yanhong Lu Jun Nie Fenliang Fan | 2021 | Soil Ecology Letters2021,3,4: | 0 |
| 10 | Detecting the non-breeding region and migration route of Whimbrels(Numenius phaeopus rogachevae)in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway显示文摘Determining the migration routes and connections of migratory birds at the population level helps clarify intraspecific differences in migration.Five subspecies have been recognized in the Whimbrel(Numenius phaeopus)in Eurasia.Ssp.rogachevae is the most recently described subspecies.It breeds in Central Siberia,while its non-breeding region and migration routes are still unclear.We tracked the migration of Eurasian Whimbrels captured at three non-breeding sites(Moreton Bay in east coast of Australia,Roebuck Bay in Northwest Australia and Sungei Buloh Wetland in Singapore)and two migration stopover sites(Chongming Dongtan and Mai Po Wetland in China).We determined the breeding sites and inferred the subspecies of the tagged birds in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway(EAAF)based on the known breeding distribution of each subspecies.Of the 30 tagged birds,6 and 21 birds bred in the breeding range of ssp.rogachevae and variegatus,respectively;one bred in the presumed transition area between the breeding range of ssp.phaeopus and rogachevae,and two bred in the region between the breeding range of ssp.rogachevae and variegatus.The birds that bred in the ssp.rogachevae breeding range spent their non-breeding season in the northern Sumatra,Singapore,East Java and Northwest Australia and mainly stopped over along China's coasts during migration.None of our birds bred in the exclusive breeding range of the phaeopus subspecies.Previous studies have predicted that rogachevae whimbrels migrate along the Central Asian Flyway and spend the non-breeding season in West India and East Africa.We found that at least some rogachevae whimbrels migrate along the EAAF and spend the non-breeding season in Southeast Asia and Australia.The ssp.phaeopus is at best sparsely distributed in the EAAF in the west region,or possibly does not occur at all. | Fenliang Kuang Wei Wu David Li Chris J.Hassell Grace Maglio Kar-Sin K.Leung Jonathan T.Coleman Chuyu Cheng Pavel S.Tomkovich Zhijun Ma | 2022 | Avian Research2022,13,1: | 0 |
