Monitoring mercury across the National Wildlife Refuge System using a biosentinel approach

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
We measured mercury concentrations in 1,356 dragonfly larvae collected from 30 National Wildlife Refuges across the United States and found wide variability among refuges, spanning the full range reported for other protected lands. Using a management‐focused mercury impairment index, 80% of refuges contained sites classified as moderate or higher risk.

Warming and freshening coastal waters impact harmful algal bloom frequency in high latitudes

Communications Earth & Environment
Harmful algal blooms contaminate seafood with toxins and poison humans and wildlife upon consumption. Toxic algae niches are projected to expand in high latitudes, but how the frequency of their blooms will evolve is still little known.

Divergent responses of the diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii to ocean acidification during light and dark periods

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Given the limited understanding of discrepancies in responses of diatoms to ocean acidification (OA), we comparatively investigated the physiological and transcriptional performances of a diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii acclimated to OA (pHt drop of 0.35–0.41) between day and night periods.

Toxic Algae Contamination and Demand for Shellfish: A Case Study of Demand for Mussels in Montreal [PDF]

Toxic algae blooms are a worldwide phenomena, which appear to be increasing in frequency and severity. These natural events cause product contaminations that often have significant economic consequences, including supply interruptions due to closed ...

Seasonal differences and potential biological drivers of the methane paradox in two peri‐Alpine lakes

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Seasonal variations and the biological drivers underlying the methane paradox in freshwater lakes are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the relationship between subsurface methane inventories and phytoplankton in two peri‐Alpine lakes across different seasons.

Blue Nitrogen: Global Rates and Economic Importance

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen (N) pollution drives widespread coastal ecosystem collapse. In this paper, we argue that mangrove forests represent an undervalued natural mitigation solution for N pollution. By performing a comprehensive global meta‐analysis, we reveal that mangroves remove 870 Gg N annually, which represents an economic value reaching $8.7 billion ...

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1424-1437, May 2026.
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

Metacaspases contribute to the cellular response to heat stress in a marine diatom

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2357-2367, May 2026.
Summary Climate‐driven marine heatwaves (HW) are extreme, large‐scale events characterized by elevated ocean temperatures lasting from days to months. Despite their importance, little is known about the molecular mechanisms of algal response to marine HW. Recent studies suggest that metacaspases play an important role in thermotolerance.

How Plants May Maintain Protein Homeostasis Under Rising Atmospheric CO2

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 2654-2672, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Vascular plants may employ several physiological mechanisms to stabilize their protein contents as atmospheric CO2 concentrations change over a day, year, decade, or century. One mechanism is that plants may rely more on soil ammonium as their nitrogen source when CO2 increases.
