Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.Abstract Introduction Restoration of marine and freshwater wetlands for shorebirds is essential for the recovery of their declining populations. An ongoing approach is to restore shorebird habitats by large‐scale engineering, expecting the return of birds once suitable abiotic conditions are (re)established.

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Wetland‐dependent birds play crucial ecological roles and are highly influenced by local environmental factors such as depth, salinity and microhabitat availability. Although the importance of these environments for biodiversity is already recognized, studies on the spatiotemporal dynamics of these assemblages in Maranhão remain scarce.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...

Comparative Genomics Reveals Genetic Adaptations to Diving‐Associated Foraging in Anseriformes
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We conducted a comparative genomic analysis of 25 Anseriformes species with diverse foraging strategies to uncover the genetic basis of diving adaptation. Diving waterfowl exhibited signatures of positive selection and functional enrichment in metabolic regulation, transmembrane transport, and neural processes essential for hypoxia tolerance.
