Environmental DNA as a Detection and Quantitative Tool for Brown Bullhead Catfish (Ameiurus nebulosus): A Comparison With Conventional Netting

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Multiple environmental DNA (eDNA) methods were compared with each other and with fyke netting for detecting invasive brown bullhead catfish. eDNA sampling combined with catfish‐specific metabarcoding provides sensitive detection and effectively complements traditional netting for biosecurity.

Diel and Artificial Light Effects on Nearshore Communities Revealed by eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Environmental DNA revealed rapid, taxon‐specific community reorganization across diel and artificial light conditions in a nearshore marine ecosystem. Distinct responses among trophic groups indicate that artificial light at night reshapes predator–prey interactions and community structure within 30 min of exposure.

Hydrological control of ecosystem functioning in a coastal lagoon

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Located at the land–ocean interface, coastal lagoons are specifically vulnerable to increasing threats from anthropogenic activities and climate change. Understanding the hydrological and ecological responses of these lagoon systems to global and local changes is essential.

Expanding Possibilities for the Use of Writing Genres in Early Elementary Science: Investigating First‐Graders’ Multimodal Sequential Explanations

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 1079-1095, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the outcomes of the implementation of a first grade unit incorporating multiple modes of representation and genre‐based pedagogy to support writing instruction in the genre of sequential explanations. At the end of a 6‐day unit investigating the structure and functions of carnivorous plants, 47 first graders completed a

Predator‐guild‐specific parental responses mitigate higher predation risk on ground nests close to forest patches in a mosaic landscape

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1151-1162, July 2026.
Predation increases close to habitat edges, but how animals cope with local predation variations remained poorly studied. In a mosaic landscape, lapwings were compensating for increased nest predation close to forests. They acted more aggressively towards an avian predator when nesting close to trees, but comparatively tamer against a mammal.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1091-1107, July 2026.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.
