Fluvial deposits of the Ahr river (western Germany) reveal recurring high‐magnitude flood events over the last 1,500 years

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.
Floods are one of the most critical environmental threats in Central Europe. We show the importance of geomorphological records from Ahr flood deposits for reconstructing past high‐magnitude flood events. Our chemolithostratigraphical analysis shows that centennial to millennial scale high‐energy flooding is not the exception but the rule in the Ahr ...

Performance of Two Custom Probe Kits for In‐Solution Enrichment of Ancient Avian DNA

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis remains challenging due to low endogenous DNA content of degraded samples. Hybridisation‐based in‐solution enrichment has emerged as an effective tool for targeting genomic regions, enhancing endogenous DNA yield while minimising overall sequencing effort.
