Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Freshwater Biodiversity Research in Brazil: Trends from a Systematic Review and Topic Modeling

International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Brazil is a megadiverse country that hosts six major biomes and a vast freshwater network. Despite this richness, research on freshwater biodiversity has been heterogeneous across regions, communities, and time, leaving significant knowledge gaps.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11384-11403, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Genetic markers as a tool for bioindication in forest ecosystems.

, 2000
Bioindication measures the response of individuals and populations to stress with main emphasis on anthropogenically induced change of environment. Forest ecosystems reveal a high indicative potential for the verification of long-term environmental ...

Bioindication of surface water contamination using Daphtoxkit microbiotest [PDF]

, 2017
Acute toxicity bioassays are widely used in the biomonitoring of aquatic ecosystems. An example of bioassay, conforming to OECD Guideline 202 and ISO 6341 is Daphtoxkit F magna.

The Response of Terrestrial Arthropods to Natural and Anthropogenically Altered Disturbance and Stress Regimes in Riparian Zones: A Systematic Review

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones are vital for biodiversity and are increasingly threatened by natural and human‐induced factors that disrupt their structure and function. Arthropods, as dominant terrestrial organisms in these habitats, are essential for ecosystem services, influencing connectivity between terrestrial and aquatic webs, and are sensitive ...

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1099-1113, September 2026.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Functional and Taxonomic Structuring of Ground‐Dwelling Spider Communities Under the Combined Effects of the Environment and Metal Contamination

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Through a field study along a metal contamination gradient, we propose a combined application of taxonomic and functional approaches to study the impacts of contamination on polyphagous predators, spiders. We have demonstrated a significant impact of metal contamination on spider communities, although it operates among a set of variables (e.g ...

An Overview on Ants as Bioindicator

IARJSET, 2022
There is a resurgence to measure or monitor the impact of intensive exploitation of natural resources on environment and original habitats. The indicator qualities of terrestrial invertebrates are widely recognized in the context of detecting ecological change associated with human land-use.

Socio‐demographic drivers of hunting, trade and local ecological knowledge of the yellow‐casqued hornbill (Ceratogymna elata) in the Ebo forest, Cameroon

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Using interviews with 267 respondents across 21 villages surrounding Cameroon's Ebo forest, we found that knowledge, hunting and trade of the Vulnerable yellow‐casqued hornbill were structured mainly by age, residency, gender and occupation rather than by geographic proximity alone.
