Warming reduces the quality of forage resources in a Colorado meadow ecosystem

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rangelands provide ecosystem services that support approximately 30% of the human population. To maintain sustainable forage resources for animals in grasslands, it is essential to manage grazing pressures by adapting to changes in the quantity and nutritional quality of vegetation affected by climate change and subsequent shifts in plant ...

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1826-1846, August 2026.
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Risk Without Values: Including Indigenous Perspectives in Climate Risk Assessments

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate risk assessments (CRAs) increasingly acknowledge Indigenous communities as disproportionately exposed to climate change, yet they rarely engage Indigenous perspectives as distinct ways of understanding risk. In a thematic review of CRAs self‐submitted to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) by English‐speaking international cities, we ...

Assessing Whether Habitat Suitability Models Can Predict Abundance of an Insect Pest

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our research addresses a critical question in pest management: whether habitat suitability models can effectively predict pest abundance across landscapes. We found two models (BioClim and Random Forest) that captured the expected wedge‐shaped relationship, with substantial variation in predictive capacity among models.

Swimming Upriver? Exploring the Sources of Freshwater and Marine Fish in Military Diet in Sixteenth‐ to Nineteenth‐Century Northeastern North America

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 984-1012, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Atlantic cod were caught in large numbers and shipped from fishing stations in North America to Europe and the Caribbean, and this has been frequently studied zooarchaeologically; however, the exchange of cod and other fish into interior North America has received less study.

Low exposure to positive social determinants of health increases cardiovascular mortality risk modified by allostatic load in cancer and non-cancer patients

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: Allostatic load (AL) is a measure of the biological “wear and tear” or cumulative physiological effects of chronic stress exposure. High AL is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular death (CVD).

Variation the in relationship between urban tree canopy and air temperature reduction under a range of daily weather conditions

open access: yesHeliyon
Mitigating heat is a vital ecosystem service of trees, particularly with climate change. Land surface temperature measures captured at a single time of day (in the morning) dominate the urban heat island literature.

Comparison of Conventional, Rake, and Sonar‐Based Biophysical Habitat Measurements in a Shallow Ontario River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 1011-1021, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowledge of habitat availability is critically important for the management and recovery of freshwater species. Quantifying habitat availability often requires fine‐scale sampling at point‐based locations across a large geographic extent, which can be laboursome.

Valorizing Landfill Gas Condensate as an External Carbon Source for Denitrification in Sewage–Landfill Leachate Co‐Treatment

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study showed that landfill gas condensate can replace conventional liquid carbon sources for denitrification in SBRs, achieving similarly high nitrogen removal without leaving refractory organic residues, while also beneficially reusing a landfill byproduct to improve sustainability and reduce reliance on purchased carbon.

Cognitive Flexibility and Inhibition Deficits in HIV and Cocaine Dependence: Evidence from Stroop and Trail Making Tests

open access: yesViruses
Objective: To better define potential executive function difficulties in individuals living with HIV but not clinically identified as having HAND, with and without mild to moderate cocaine dependence (CD), our cross-sectional study examined executive ...
