Harnessing Population Genomics, Gut Microbiota, and Environmental DNA Surveillance for the Conservation of Chinese Spotted Seals in a Changing World

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Marine mammals are sentinel species for ocean and human health. Multiple anthropogenic and environmental stressors threaten these organisms, particularly China's spotted seals, which have experienced significant decline over the past half‐century. Our review reveals low genetic diversity in Chinese spotted seal populations.

Impacts of a Century‐Old Urban Dam on Water Quality and Habitat Composition, Flint River, Flint, MI

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 432-443, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Dams significantly influence river ecosystems worldwide, fragmenting habitats, altering sediment transport, and reducing biodiversity. Urban rivers are especially vulnerable, where dams compound stressors such as channelization, pollution, and degraded riparian zones. In response, dam removals are a growing restoration tool globally.

Advancing Water Security in the Tropical and Subtropical Regions: An Integrative Topic Modeling Approach

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Water security in tropical regions faces escalating pressures from climate change, land‐use shifts, and population growth. We conducted a bibliometric review of 1146 peer‐reviewed articles (1964–2023) on tropical water security. Latent Dirichlet Allocation identified 13 thematic topics and their evolution. Publications rose sharply after 2012,
