Shallow subsurface structure detection in coastal zones serves as a critical foundation for resource development and engineering construction. However, conventional geophysical methods exhibit significant limitations in land–sea transition zones, where pronounced “boundary effects” create substantial “exploration gaps” due to difficulties in merging terrestrial and marine datasets. To achieve truly seamless subsurface imaging...

Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China. We identified areas of conservation priority for 16 primate species and determined which other threatened and endemic terrestrial vertebrates and see...
