Floodplain Conservation Versus Landscape Development—How to Tackle the Multifunctional Management Issue

WIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The ability to perform a number of ecosystem functions is degraded by the inappropriate damming of agricultural floodplains (by levee construction) or by the continuous urban expansion, where flood protection is justified but at the cost of affecting the environmental stability of the wider landscape.

Microbial community composition of transiently wetted Antarctic Dry Valley soils [PDF]

, 2015
During the summer months, wet (hyporheic) soils associated with ephemeral streams and lake edges in the Antarctic Dry Valleys (DVs) become hotspots of biological activity and are hypothesized to be an important source of carbon and nitrogen for arid DV ...

BSG‐BATS: An open‐source data annotation portal and classifier for European bat vocalizations

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 718-726, March 2026.
Abstract Bats are ecologically important mammals whose monitoring increasingly relies on acoustic data. However, many tools for bat call identification remain subscription‐based, closed‐source, region‐specific or limited in scalability, creating barriers to global data integration and method development.

Monitoring ‘small biotopes’ [PDF]

, 1994
Small uncultivated areas within the agricultural landscape, in Denmark called ‘small biotopes’, have attracted growing attention because of their importance for wildlife and their recreational and aesthetic value. The ecological role of these small, uncultivated areas can be demonstrated by regarding them as the lowest level in a hierarchy of ...

Three Decades of Butterfly–Plant Interaction Turnover Explained by Climate and Species Loss

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2026.
Long‐term biodiversity loss reshapes interaction dynamics inpollination networks. Communities become increasingly dominated bygeneralist species that are more capable of rewiring interactions thanspecialists. However, rewiring declines over time as species lossreduces the pool of potential partners, progressively raising thecontribution of species ...
