Historical Climate and Biome Association Drove Phylogeographic Patterns in the Dwarf Swamp Frog (Anura: Leptodactylidae)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 220-231, March 2026.
ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...

Origins of Precipitation in the World's Water Towers

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract High‐mountain systems act as the planet's vital water towers, sustaining freshwater supplies for billions of people. Climate change is exacerbating hydrological imbalances in these regions, yet the moisture sources maintaining their precipitation—the primary water input—remain poorly quantified.
