Improving the Prediction of Treefrog Species Vulnerability to Climate Change: The Role of Abundance

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim As climate changes intensify over time due to anthropogenic pressures, it is estimated that a global shift in the current biodiversity patterns, including the loss of several species. Amphibians are the most threatened group by climate change and, in addition to distribution shifts, declines in species abundances are also expected.

Habitat Suitability for a Unique, Fully Marine American Manatee (Trichechus manatus) Population Primarily Depends on Presence of Submarine Freshwater Springs

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The American manatee (Trichechus manatus) requires freshwater mainly from rivers and springs to maintain osmoregulatory balance in saline environments. However, in Brazil's semi‐arid Potiguar Basin, manatees now rely solely on submarine freshwater springs because hypersaline estuaries have become unsuitable sources of freshwater.

Seeing herbaria in a new light: leaf reflectance spectroscopy unlocks trait and classification modeling in plant biodiversity collections

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 2, Page 811-829, July 2026.
Summary Reflectance spectroscopy is a rapid method for estimating traits and discriminating species. Spectral libraries from herbarium specimens represent an untapped resource for generating broad phenomic datasets across space, time, and taxa. We conducted a proof‐of‐concept study using trait data and spectra from herbarium specimens up to 179 yr old,
