Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2617-2627, August 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root activity creates unique microbial hotspots in the rhizosphere by influencing the metabolic activities of surrounding soil microorganisms, profoundly regulating the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC). However, how root economic strategies affect the formation and

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2590-2601, August 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.

Gaoya dianqi, 2009 憎水性图像水珠形状提取是绝缘子憎水性等级评价的重要前提。Snake模型在提取边界轮廓时存在着对初始轮廓敏感、边界信息捕捉能力较差等问题,为此笔者在S-L模型的基础上,利用水珠图像的先验信息来改进S-L模型对水珠形状的提取过程,在一定程度上克服了Snake模型的缺点,提高了轮廓形变过程中的拓扑能力,提高了形状提取的精确度。实验结果表明,该方法有效地实现了水珠形状的提取,为后续绝缘子性能的等级评价提供依据。

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.Ectomycorrhizal roots of Pinus armandii release more carboxylates than non‐mycorrhizal root segments, mobilizing Al‐bound inorganic P. Under the lowest available P conditions, they also secrete more phosphatase, promoting the mineralization of Al‐bound organic P.

Inferring alternative ecosystem states with field survey data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2256-2276, August 2026.Abstract Many ecosystems potentially exhibit alternative stable states, where distinct states can coexist under identical environmental conditions. While simulation models have generated key hypotheses in alternative stable states theory, they often rely on scale‐free parameters disconnected from real ecosystems.

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Although significant biodiversity has been safeguarded by protected areas (PAs), biodiversity trends continue downward. Within the frameworks of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the new EU Restoration Regulation (2024), conserving critical biodiversity areas is essential.

Exploring legal‐ and health‐risk messaging to reduce demand for elephant skin
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are poached for an illegal trade in their skins, which are used in traditional medicine in Africa and Asia. We explored whether messages about the legal and health risks of using elephant skin for medicinal purposes (stomach illness) could reduce such consumption.

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1283-1293, August 2026.Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) depletion preserves endogenous proteins at their predicted molecular weights and enhances detectable enzymatic activities. (a) Less RbcL crosslinking in ppo mutant of Nicotiana benthamiana. Leaf extracts were incubated for 1 h, separated on protein gels, stained with Coomassie or analyzed by Western blot with the anti‐RbcL ...

Moving in Cycles: Explaining the Failure of Militarization to Address Illegal Mining in Ghana
Politics &Policy, Volume 54, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Mining contributes to Ghana's economic growth but also imposes significant social costs—land dispossession and unemployment—which have fueled the rise of illegal mining (galamsey). Galamsey, which intensified during the commodity boom of the 2010s, provides livelihoods while simultaneously worsening environmental degradation and social ...
