Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

The Renal Function of the Wild Rodent Cerradomys goytaca Reveals Adaptations in the Mechanisms of Urinary Concentration and Solute Excretion

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 772-784, August 2026.
Renal adaptations of Cerradomys goytaca associated with survival in its natural habitat. Graphical Abstract of the main renal physiological characteristics identified in C. goytaca. This species exhibits an increased kidney mass index, elevated urine osmolality, and enhanced tubular water reabsorption, indicating a higher capacity for water ...

Enforcing environmental law in the Amazon

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2281-2294, July 2026.
Abstract This article identifies the underlying obstacles to enforcement of laws against environmental crimes such as illegal logging, mining and ranching. With four departments (provinces) from Colombia as case studies, it assesses enforcement of the country's main environmental law, Law 2111, which is one of Latin America's strongest. The article has

Environmental detection of the amphibian chytrid fungus in water bodies is associated with host infection along a deforestation gradient

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Linking environmental pathogen detection with host infection patterns can improve surveillance of diseases involving environmental transmission, particularly where direct host sampling is logistically challenging. This approach enables the identification of areas of elevated transmission risk and supports targeted monitoring and management under ...

A quantitative analysis to detect mass mortality events (wrecks) in Procellariiformes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our study provides the first systematic assessment of seabird mass mortality events in the South Atlantic and introduces a transferable statistical framework for detecting MMEs in other taxa and regions lacking baseline mortality information. By identifying recurrent temporal anomalies, high‐risk areas and vulnerable species, we could establish ...

PEDOTRANSFER FUNCTIONS FOR WATER RETENTION IN THE MAIN SOILS FROM THE BRAZILIAN COASTAL PLAINS

Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2015
Pedotransfer functions (PTFs) are equations used to estimate soil characteristics difficult to determine from other easily obtained ones. Water retention in soil is used in several agronomic and environmental applications, but its direct determination is

Mothbox and Mothbot: Automated light trap and data processing system for scalable insect monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 2082-2091, July 2026.
Abstract Insects represent the most diverse group of organisms on Earth and comprise the majority of known species; yet they are seldom accounted for in large‐scale biodiversity monitoring systems and conservation planning. We have developed the Mothbox—an open source automated light trap that makes insect monitoring accessible to non‐specialists and ...

A distributed large‐volume soil sampling approach to address spatial heterogeneity in eDNA data collection

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1726-1734, June 2026.
Abstract Soil sampling for eDNA is a useful approach to assess ecological communities in specific locations, such as comparing community composition across different site treatments. However, species' dispersal abilities and habitat selection, among many other factors, drive the uneven distribution of organisms across the landscape. Thus, to accurately
