2D to 3D: Exploring Variation of Niche Dimensionality Across Consumers in a Coastal Arctic Ecosystem and Implications on Interpretation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We compared the traditional two‐dimensional (2D: δ13C and δ15N) isotopic niches with a three‐dimensional (3D: δ13C, δ15N, and δ34S) framework to evaluate changes in niche size and overlap. Overall, invertebrates and benthic‐associated species showed greater changes in niche size and reduced overlap using the 3D approach.

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Canyon effects structure fin whale feeding aggregations at Southern Ocean feeding grounds

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Large fin whale feeding aggregations at Southern Ocean feeding grounds are one of the most striking predator–prey phenomena in the post‐whaling era, representing a visible sign of recovering large whale populations. Yet, the mechanisms shaping their occurrence have not yet been studied. We investigate spatial patterns of fin whale distribution

Synthetic pelagic biomass size spectra of the tropical and subtropical Atlantic

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Synthetic normalized biomass size spectra (NBSS) comprising non‐synoptically sampled phytoplankton, meso‐ and macrozooplankton, and micronekton including mesopelagic fishes were explored to analyze pelagic community structure in seven regions of the tropical and the subtropical Atlantic representative of different water bodies (NE Brazil shelf,

Mesophotic animal forests of the Aegean Sea support fish diversity hotspots under high fishing pressure

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are dense aggregations of habitat‐forming species that constitute essential habitats for diverse taxa including fish. However, the study of MAFs and their associated fauna remains largely skewed to their shallowest occurrence, above 30 m depth.
