Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Future recovery of baleen whales is imperiled by climate change
Global Change Biology, 2019 Historical harvesting pushed many whale species to the brink of extinction. Although most Southern Hemisphere populations are slowly recovering, the influence of future climate change on their recovery remains unknown.

Acoustic indices are not useful for biodiversity research
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1506-1518, May 2026.Abstract Biodiversity assessment using passive acoustic monitoring has historically been challenging due to the limited availability of multi‐species acoustic detectors. In this context, acoustic indices were introduced as an alternative way to represent species diversity in acoustic datasets.

Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and
