Exploring Uncharted Waters: The Role of Artificial Aquatic Ecosystems in Freshwater Science
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.The world's farms and cities house an abundance of human‐made waters, including farm dams, stormwater ponds, constructed wetlands, and ditches: known collectively as “artificial aquatic ecosystems.” In this viewpoint we challenge the entrenched idea that human‐made waters have limited ecological value, discuss the disconnect between the functioning of ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study investigates how contrasting hydrological regulation regimes at two gate‐controlled lakes influence the foraging strategies of wintering Hooded Cranes. We demonstrate that while cranes at near‐natural sites follow Optimal Foraging Theory by utilizing high‐accessibility mudflats, those at artificially high‐water sites exhibit an adaptive ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Oxytropis ikhbogdicus, a new species endemic to Mongolia, is described and illustrated. The new species was confirmed by phylogenetic analysis based on the complete plastome genome and combined nuclear ribosome internal transcribed spacer (ITS), psbA‐trnH, and trnF‐L sequence data as well as morphological characteristics. ABSTRACT Oxytropis ikhbogdicus,

Can Functional Traits Explain Recent Changes in Abundance of Alpine Plant Species?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We tested whether plant functional traits can explain recent changes in alpine species abundance using long‐term monitoring data from Austria. Morphological traits like plant height and leaf area predicted species changes, while physiological stress‐tolerance traits showed no significant relationships.

Can Herbivore Feeding Preferences Reinforce the Female‐Biased Sex Ratio in an Alpine Willow?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Sex‐biased herbivory can vary among co‐occurring herbivores and across the season. Sequential herbivory by species with different feeding preferences may influence the population dynamics of dioecious plants, particularly if early‐season herbivory alters plant traits that affect subsequent foraging decisions.

Upland Afforestation Desiccates Downslope Wetlands on Sandy Soil
Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 4, June 2026.ABSTRACT Afforestation of formerly open, water‐limited habitats is a globally widespread form of land conversion, driven by the need for timber and non‐timber forest products, and capturing atmospheric carbon. However, increased tree cover can adversely affect hydrological cycles by increasing evapotranspiration and reducing downslope water yield ...

Creek‐imposed gradients reshape plant allometric traits and sediment retention in a salt marsh
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Tidal creeks impose strong hydrological and geomorphic gradients that shape plant traits and sediment dynamics in salt marshes. However, how creek‐imposed gradients reorganize plant allometric strategies and how these trait shifts regulate sediment retention remain poorly quantified.
