Published in 2023 at "Advanced Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adma.202211103

Abstract: Academician Tao Zhang from China and co‐workers designed the first Pt1/FeOx single‐atom catalysts (SACs) in 2011, and they proposed the concept of “single‐atom catalysis” in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. Generally, it is easy for… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10085

Abstract: Abstract Phenotypic divergence is an important consequence of restricted gene flow in insular populations. This divergence can be challenging to detect when it occurs through subtle shifts in morphological traits, particularly in traits with complex… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3092

Abstract: Abstract Earthquake‐generated tsunamis threaten coastal areas and low‐lying islands with sudden flooding. Although human hazards and infrastructure damage have been well documented for tsunamis in recent decades, the effects on wildlife communities rarely have been… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4680

Abstract: Abstract Aim The final island ontogeny of the general dynamic model (GDM) (i.e., before island submergence) in tropical oceans corresponds to the coral atoll stage. Here, we examined whether the species richness of native vascular… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6510

Abstract: Abstract Fern gametophytes have often been neglected in research; however, studies on gametophytes are crucial for a better understanding of the evolution of ferns. During their life cycle, some gametophytes produce large and long‐lived populations… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9814

Abstract: Abstract Although island endemic bats are a source of considerable conservation concerns, their biology remains poorly known. Here, we studied the phenology and roosting behavior of a tropical island endemic species: the Reunion free‐tailed bat… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of medical virology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.27422

Abstract: Pteropine orthoreovirus (PRV) is an emerging zoonotic respiratory virus that can be transmitted from bats to humans. In Malaysia, aside from PRV2P (Pulau virus) being isolated from Pteropus hypomelanus sampled in Tioman island, PRV3M (Melaka… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Wildlife Management"

DOI: 10.1002/jwmg.21370

Abstract: Nest monitoring at Anacapa Island, California, USA, in 2001–2010 documented considerable benefits for Scripps's murrelets (Synthliboramphus scrippsi) following the eradication of black rats (Rattus rattus) in 2002. In 2014, post-eradication monitoring resumed at Anacapa to… read more here.
