The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Environmental governance in the face of collapse: The case of Acapulco, Mexico, between tourist splendour and ecological risk

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
Underwater clean‐up efforts in Acapulco Bay reveal the visible consequences of chronic coastal pollution. This study shows how Environmental Risk Assessments (ERAs) can integrate scientific evidence, regulatory frameworks and practitioner experience to identify pollution sources and guide more effective coastal governance in cities of the Global South.

Population structure of the pearly razorfish, Xyrichtys novacula (Actinopterygii: Labridae), in sand-seagrass mosaics: spatial variation according to habitat features and sampling techniques

Scientia Marina, 2015
Habitat structure affects the distribution of fishes, particularly across reef-dominated habitats, but few studies have connected patterns in the abundance of soft-bottom fishes with the structure of the habitat.

Designing networks of freshwater and marine conservation areas accounting for cross‐realm connectivity and threat propagation

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study highlights the importance of integrating cross‐realm connectivity and threat propagation when designing new or expanding existing networks of conservation areas, such as the Natura 2000 European network of protected areas. These findings emphasize the need for multirealm planning that supports species persistence, protects transitional ...
