Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.

Testing the Dry Refuge Model: Paleoecological Insights From Late Pleistocene Gomphotheres in Ecuador
We present paleontological evidence that may prove the Dry Refuge Model in Ecuador during the Late Pleistocene. ABSTRACT Paleoenvironmental records indicate that Neotropical regions near the Equator experienced reduced rainfall during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). However, some records show conflicting environmental signals.

Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance
ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

Secondary weathering of alluvial‐fan surfaces records the relative, and even absolute, ages of deposited sediments up to 300 ka. Hyperspectral imagery quantifies evolving mineral‐weathering pathways to unlock high‐resolution mapping and dating of these sedimentary landscapes.
