Giant Nuthatch (Sitta magna) is a globally endangered species, and much of the knowledge necessary for their long-term management remains unavailable. We propose to obtain nest characteristics and reproductive success data at a key site dominated by mature pine (Pinus kesiya) plantations. Our study found that the nest survival rate of Giant Nuthatch in mature pine plantation was 23.65%, similar to other tropical birds. Although our results indicated no strong effect of most nest characteristics on survival, Giant Nuthatches seemed to prefer nest trees with a high percentage of crown touching, which may protect the cavity from severe weather. They also preferred nest sites with a moderate density of large trees and could nest in both pine and broadleaved trees. This study is a crucial step in preventing the extinction of this endangered species by increasing our understanding of how plantations are utilized for nesting.United Nation (UN) members commit to Paris Agreement towards Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). Each nation then announces net-zero strategy in the distinctive year depending on several factors; however, the common factor to success in net-zero path rests upon the readiness of bottom-up (firm) climate risk adaptation and mitigation strategies. Even several databases are collected interim goal of carbon neutrality in country level, there still remains a need for firm climate data relevant to measuring the climate situation. Therefore, this study aims to 1) assessing the firm climate maturity evaluated by the firm’s ability to mitigate and adapt to physical and transition risks 2) analyzing the determinants of climate change risk mitigation and adaptation using Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Our quantitative model using clustering displayed the low maturity of the Thai firms. Climate strategy and climate metrics are significant factors in enhancing climate risk maturity.Globally, fishing cat populations have declined due to habitat loss and mortality from conflicts. These threats continue unabated hence it is urgent to understand how the populations respond. We applied an open population capture-recapture analytical framework to estimate the apparent survival of fishing cats, using camera trap data, in southwestern Thailand. We also conducted interviews among adjacent communities to better understand their perspectives toward fishing cats and conflicts with people. The apparent survival rate in the second period was lower (14%) than the first period. Male survival rate was higher (17%) than the female. Safeguarding important existing habitats will probably help improve the positive shift in the population dynamics, while implementing outreach programs may mitigate negative attitudes. Our results improve knowledge on how demographic changes in responding to threats, which are crucial information for long-term conservation planning.80112Daphawan KHAMCHA113Patipan SAE-LIM114Wanlop CHUTIPONGThe globally Endangered Giant Nuthatch (Sitta magna): breeding ecology, nest-site characteristics and the role of mature pine plantation, one of the key factors for its conservation(Project 2022)Are We Ready for Climate Change?
