Navigating Practical, Political, and Ethical Challenges of Long‐Term Human Biology Field Research: The Shuar Health and Life History Project

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Major advances in understanding human biology and health have been made possible by long‐term field research projects with Indigenous peoples, whose ecological settings and lifeways are distinct from majority populations in high‐income settings.

Welcome to Hotel Hymenoptera: monitoring cavity-nesting bee and wasp distribution and their trophic interactions using community science and metabarcoding

Metabarcoding and Metagenomics
Abstract Essential ecosystem services are provided by many interactions, including plant-pollinator, predator-prey, and host-parasitoid. These services support food and natural systems through pollination and pest control, however they are challenging to qualify, and previous observational studies may underestimate their complexity.

Landscape and local factors influence solitary bee nesting, but reported effects show little consistency across studies

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Collectively, these findings indicate that agri‐environment schemes aiming to support solitary bees should integrate the provision of nesting resources with proximity to floral resources. The heterogeneity among studies highlights the need for solitary bee conservation measures to be tailored to local conditions and to the local fauna.

Feature Selection Based on Artificial Bee Colony and Gradient Boosting Decision Tree for Hotel Reservation Cancellation Prediction Using Random Forest

MATICS: Jurnal Ilmu Komputer dan Teknologi Informasi (Journal of Computer Science and Information Technology)
This study focuses on predicting hotel booking cancellations using machine learning to improve accuracy and operational efficiency. The methods used include Random Forest, Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), and Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT). ABC, which excels in optimization but is prone to local optima, is combined with GBDT for feature selection ...

Estimating the Impact of Socioeconomic Drivers on Land Degradation in Italy via Spatio‐Temporal Additive Expectile Regression

Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate changes, soil degradation, and desertification increasingly threaten the entire territory of Italy due to the complex interplay between natural processes and anthropogenic forces. Motivated by this pressing issue, this paper investigates how land‐use and socioeconomic drivers have shaped desertification dynamics across Italian ...

The Harawayan Bee Hotel: a tool to catalyse emancipatory change within and beyond the Education for Sustainable Development agenda in pre-service teacher training

Global Social Challenges Journal
The notion of the Anthropocene has become a popular (and contested) term to describe the times we live in; among other things, it alerts us to the damage mainstream Western-centred anthropocentrism has wreaked on nature: in so doing, the Anthropocene signals that for life as we know it to continue, a more sustainable relationship with nature must be ...
