Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.Through a survey of small mammals in the western Tianshan Mountains, we discovered that the synergy between deterministic and neutral processes drives the turnover‐dominated beta diversity of small mammals. ABSTRACT Exploring multifaceted beta diversity, including its turnover and nestedness components, is crucial for elucidating the drivers of ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 8, November 2026.We estimated the distribution of the federally threatened wolverine (Gulo gulo) across the western United States in 2022, evaluated changes in distribution since 2017 (the last survey), and made inference on drivers of wolverine occurrence. This monitoring program and subsequent results are used by states to make management and conservation decisions ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 8, November 2026.Caribou forage lichens were present in post‐burn lodgepole pine stands multiple decades before stem‐density was likely open enough to attract wintering caribou. We posit that the prolonged self‐thinning of lodgepole pine after fire may be a greater limiting factor than lichen abundance for habitat recovery in lodgepole pine forests.

Nonlinear interactive effects of temperature and soil moisture on plant biomass and carbon fluxes
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.Climate warming is affecting plant growth and CO2 fluxes in high‐latitude ecosystems. However, soil moisture – and how it responds to warming – can alter the shape of the relationship between temperature and both plant performance and ecosystem processes. We conducted a microcosm experiment to test the interactive effects of temperature, soil moisture,

Competition and soil conditions limit the growth of High Arctic non‐native plants
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.Non‐native vascular plant species in the High Arctic are currently restricted mainly to settlements and other anthropogenically disturbed areas. The reasons for this remain unclear, but climate or dispersal do not appear to be the main limiting factors. Instead, biotic interactions combined with soil conditions may play important roles.

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 11, November 2026.ABSTRACT Species in the Rosaceae tribe Spiraeeae occupy diverse habitats and vary strikingly in growth form and leaf morphology. Still, no reference transcriptomes have been published for the tribe, and its transcriptome‐level variation is uncharacterized.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.This research shows high gastrointestinal parasitic infections in the endangered Himalayan musk deer, indicating a significant risk of cross‐transmission from sympatric livestock (chauri and horses). Moreover, distinct host‐specific parasite dominance and habitat‐dependent infection patterns accentuate the need for minimising livestock‐wildlife contact

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 11, November 2026.Abstract Large‐scale, high‐resolution estimation of snow water equivalent (SWE) in mountainous regions remains challenging. Continental‐scale approaches, including SWE reconstruction and regional climate model (RCM) simulations, are computationally expensive at high resolutions.
