Climate and Land‐Use Change May Reshape the Biogeography of Freshwater Crabs Across China
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.We employed ensemble species distribution models to investigate how climate and land‐use change will impact habitat suitability for two freshwater crab families (Potamidae and Sesarmidae) across China. Temperature emerged as the dominant driver, with cropland and urban land having strong, family‐specific effects on suitability. Future scenarios predict

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.For the first time in Gammarus insensibilis, a single‐organism 1H NMR metabolomics approach was applied to investigate the intrapopulation variability in growth trajectories showing how divergent size classes, despite being of the same age, reflect alternative resource‐allocation strategies.

Catchment Influences on Carbon Stable Isotope Variation in Trout; Might It Be Methane?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Trout stable carbon isotope values vary significantly and appear to relate to catchment characteristics. Low carbon stable isotope values are linked to catchments with low drainage soil and high cover of pasture land use. This is likely to be linked to high levels of methane‐derived carbon entering the stream food web.

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.
