Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We highlight an overlooked pathway in ecosystem functioning: the role of animal carcass decomposition in trace element cycling. By linking animal life cycles to landscape‐scale processes, we explain how large animals redistribute scarce elements and influence spatial heterogeneity, with implications for ecosystem functioning and restoration.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.Contemporary artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are often presumed to be capable of revealing unmediated truths about the world, including the truths language might hold, echoing the long‐standing assertion that language's primary function is to directly translate reality.

Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article considers travel writings by metropolitan men in Republican China about Shanxi and western Inner Mongolia as a case study to further explore the transformations and continuities of Chinese masculinities. Drawing upon a range of popular travel narratives, it shows that so‐called “Worn‐Out Shoes (poxie)” – women perceived as ...

Ecological Irreplaceability in the Era of Nature Positive
Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Global biodiversity decline has breached safe limits, prompting ambitious goals to halt and reverse nature loss. Meeting these goals requires a shift from minimizing losses to securing an absolute net gain of nature and biodiversity. We argue that foundational to this is respecting ecological irreplaceability—the recognition that some ...

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 179-190, July 2026.Summary Tree stems in Amazonian floodplains emit substantial methane (CH4), yet controls on emission variability remain unclear. Emissions span orders of magnitude between várzea (nutrient‐rich) and igapó (nutrient‐poor) forests and among trees, suggesting controls beyond flooding.

(Poly)Borylated Species as Modern Reactive Groups toward Unusual Synthetic Applications
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 10, 2 March 2026.In this review, we spotlight recent breakthroughs in α‐polyboron‐substituted carbon‐centered intermediates (carbanion, carbocation, radical, and carbene) and polyborylated alkenes. By bridging fundamental reactivity with the application potential of these extraordinary species, we hope this review will serve as a roadmap for harnessing these unique ...

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.

Ecological and Social Dimensions of Human–Bear Coexistence in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We modelled habitat suitability for Asiatic black bears in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area and combined it with community surveys to understand human–bear coexistence. Our results show that bear habitat is concentrated between 1000 and 3000 m and that conflict is rising in forest‐edge communities.

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Earth's arid and semi‐arid regions have been hypothesized to contribute significantly to interannual variability of the global terrestrial carbon sink. Arid and semi‐arid regions such as the Western U.S. also show high vulnerability to climate extremes in the form of droughts, heatwaves, and large forest fires, compelling a need to quantify ...

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...
