Cultural and ecological baselines inform an eco‐cultural vision for Weka (Gallirallus australis) restoration in southern New Zealand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Eco‐cultural restoration requires targets that reflect cultural values and ecological conditions. We present an integrative approach combining cultural and ecological baselines to inform future eco‐cultural restoration of Buff weka (Gallirallus australis hectori), a flightless bird of deep cultural significance to the Ōtākou Māori

Beach Gold and Heavy Mineral Concentrates on Tiwai Spit Gravel Strand Plain, Southland, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Holocene Tiwai Spit on Foveaux Strait is a 12 km by 2 km gravel‐dominated strand plain, ∼10 m above present sea level. Gravel clasts are dominated by well‐rounded quartz cobbles, pebbles and granules derived from Otago Schist 200 km to the north in evolving river drainage systems during late Cenozoic.

Assessing the Distribution, Density and Ecological Impacts of Feral Deer in Urban and Peri‐Urban Areas of Lake Macquarie, New South Wales, Australia

Ecological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Feral deer are associated with a range of environmental impacts including overgrazing and trampling of native vegetation, increased insolation, ringbarking, creation of wallows, erosion and stream degradation. Consequences of invasive deer impacts can threaten vulnerable ecological communities and have the potential to alter long‐term ...

Total Ozone Reactivity Measurements Reveal Knowledge Gap in Volatile Organic Compound Emissions and Their Reactions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Total ozone (O3) reactivity monitors (TORMs) were used to investigate biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions from several ecosystems. Measurements were conducted in temperate deciduous North American forests, during the CABINEX and SOAS campaigns, on tundra vegetation emissions at Toolik lake field station (TFS) in Alaska, and in ...

Coupling Water Purification and Carbon Sequestration at Various Spatial Scales From Supply and Demand Perspective

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 8986-9007, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Balancing ecosystem‐service supply and demand is central to understanding both the natural and social dimensions of ecosystem services and to enhancing human well‐beings. Concurrently, collaborative efforts are underway to improve multiple ecosystem services, including the promotion of carbon neutrality and water purification (WP) within basin
