Uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains: Evidence for an Evolving and Long‐Lived Rayleigh‐Taylor Instability

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rayleigh‐Taylor instabilities within the upper mantle are investigated as a mechanism for the uplift of rift‐margin mountain ranges within the continents. Our focus is on the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM). These mountains form at the margin between East and West Antarctica and have been free from the effects of subduction for about 500 ...

Kamafugite Magma Pathways and Lava‐Flow Paleotopography From Three‐Dimensional Audiomagnetotelluric Imaging Constrained by Borehole Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract An audiomagnetotelluric (AMT) survey was conducted within the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province, southeastern Brazil, to delineate shallow occurrences of kamafugite, a rare ultrapotassic volcanic rock worldwide. A dense grid of AMT stations was deployed, allowing the construction of a high‐resolution 3D electrical resistivity model ...

Long‐term changes in functional diversity and its implications for mammalian conservation and ecological restoration in a grassland ecosystem

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2379-2391, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Paleontological data provide information on natural environments prior to human influence, which are useful for tracking changes in ecosystem functioning through time. During the Late Pleistocene, about 10% of terrestrial mammalian species were extinct in South America.

Informal supply chains of wild meat from rural Amazonia and food security in an urban center

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Iquitos, the most populated city in the Peruvian Amazon, is a hub in the regional supply chain of wild meat and supplies urban consumers. Studies on wild meat consumption have focused primarily on markets, limiting the scope of species considered to those that are economically valuable and potential inferences from those data.

Are we there yet? Reliable occupancy modeling from AI‐labeled trail camera data

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Even low false‐positive rates in AI‐labeled camera‐trap data can bias occupancy estimates, particularly for rare species. Our results show that false positive informed occupancy models can substantially improve inference, underscoring the need to evaluate AI classifiers according to the assumptions of downstream ecological analyses.

The Effects of Microplastics and Additives on Ecosystem Function, Structure, and Signaling

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Microplastics disrupt ecosystem signaling through olfactory traps, altering predator–prey signaling and disrupting microbial communication and quorum sensing. ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) and their associated chemical additives are pervasive contaminants whose ecological impacts extend beyond organismal toxicity to fundamentally alter ecosystem ...

Etymology and entomology: The semiotics and ethics of multispecies gene nomenclatures

open access: yesJournal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract This article examines controversies surrounding gene names that are perceived as humorous in the context of fruit flies but are considered rude in the clinical context of human medicine. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in insect laboratories, interviews with entomologists and geneticists, and an analysis of scientific and clinical ...
