Ancient Plumage Colour Genetics Reveal Goose Domestication and Hybridization

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In archaeological assemblages, differentiating the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser), has been challenging due to their similar skeletal morphologies. A short region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysed from ancient DNA (aDNA) has been shown to distinguish wild greylags from domestic geese, but ...

For Goodness' Sake: The Coloniality of Research Ethics in Biological Anthropology

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Modern science has emerged in relation with European colonization whereby virtuous logics have often animated dis/possessions and governing authorities over Indigenous Peoples and their territories. Indigenous Peoples have long resisted extractive and exploitative scientific practices.

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 2053-2076, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Niche Conservatism Shapes Invasion Patterns of Opuntia Species Despite Interspecific Differences in Expansion Dynamics

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates an integrative framework combining ensemble species distribution models, PCA‐env niche quantification, and MESS similarity mapping to assess niche dynamics across four globally invasive Opuntia species. Results reveal predominant niche conservatism (89.6%–98.2% stability) with soil nutrient availability identified as ...

Evaluating the U.S. Geological Survey's Earthquake Shaking Hazard Forecasts and Their Implications on Seismic Risk

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
We analyze the last six update cycles of the long‐term probabilistic earthquake shaking hazard forecast from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and discuss the changes in hazard estimates from the 1996 to the latest 2023 update of the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for the conterminous United States.

Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 915-932, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

Systemic bio‐inequity links poverty to biodiversity and induces a conservation paradox

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2700-2719, August 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity is declining globally while inequity is growing, and poverty rates are not improving. Global sustainable development and conservation initiatives aim to address biodiversity loss and poverty simultaneously. Through text analysis of global biodiversity policies, we identified a consistent narrative that countries with high ...

Using Machine Learning to Predict Phytoplankton Blooms in the Salish Sea

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Strong phytoplankton blooms occur every spring in the Salish Sea, but vary significantly, spatially and temporally. Natural variability and climate change make the prediction of the bloom challenging, as they affect both atmospheric drivers and nutrient interactions that contribute to the growth of phytoplankton. Understanding these drivers is
