, 2019 [Resumen]El agua de lastre es un recurso que permite mejorar la estabilidad del buque cuando este navega sin carga, representando un peso adicional que mejora las condiciones de la navegación. Sin embargo, la posible transferencia de agentes patógenos y organismos acuáticos contenidos en el agua de lastre y sedimentos de los buques durante las ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8950-8962, September 2026.The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Fluid Toxicities: Violent Affective Ecologies in Cartagena, Colombia
Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.ABSTRACT Water is at the centre of climate change emergency concerns in coastal cities. It constitutes here a fluid entry point to investigating the socio‐ecological politics of toxicities for residents dwelling with and against contaminated waters in Cartagena, Colombia's urban extensions.

Régimen jurídico de las aguas de lastre en Colombia
Revista Ciencias Marinas y CosterasIn the context of globalization, 80% of world trade is conducted via the oceans. This implies that navigation constitutes not only one of the drivers of the global economy but also one of the factors with the greatest impact on marine ecosystems. From a technical navigation perspective, ships require mechanisms to stabilize themselves and their cargo ...

Maximum water stress is decoupled from climate, traits, and growth in a xeric oak
New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2392-2406, September 2026.We sampled sites across the geographic distribution of blue oak (Quercus douglasii) in California, USA, which spans a large range of mean annual precipitation. Summary Our ability to explain and predict the spatial patterns of forest mortality remains limited.

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Vitex L. is a pantropical genus of Lamiaceae comprising 209 taxa. Brazil harbors 35 species, representing nearly 50% of the genus richness in the Neotropics, with the Amazon showing the highest richness, followed by the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado domains. Nevertheless, most taxonomic studies of the genus have been conducted in Africa and Asia.

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...
