Checklist of Orchidaceae From Brazilian Amazon Restingas

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
In Brazil, restingas (coastal sandbank vegetation) are distributed along the coast in the Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, Cerrado, and Amazon phytogeographic domains. Orchidaceae is one of the botanical families with the greatest species richness in restingas in the Atlantic Forest but has been poorly documented in Amazonian restingas, resulting in limited ...

Seasonal Patterns and Environmental Drivers of Seagrass (Zostera muelleri) Flowering in Aotearoa New Zealand: Implications for Seed‐Based Restoration

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Seagrass flowering underpins seed‐based restoration and is governed by the interaction of multiple abiotic and biotic drivers operating across a range of temporal and spatial scales. In New Zealand/Aotearoa, flowering was historically considered rare, but emerging evidence indicates it is more widespread than previously recognised, creating new ...

Remote Sensing With Machine Learning to Monitor Seagrass Meadows: Long‐Term Trends in Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Seagrass meadows play critical roles in coastal ecosystems by stabilising sediments, supporting biodiversity and sequestering carbon, yet monitoring their recovery at scale is often constrained by the lack of scalable and repeatable approaches. This study applies an open‐source remote‐sensing framework to track long‐term changes in Zostera muelleri in ...

Evolution of beach profiles at the German Baltic Sea during and after large-scale beach nourishment: bar formation and sand redistribution

Frontiers in Marine Science
Coastal zones, critical for their ecological and economic significance, are increasingly vulnerable to storm surges, sea-level rise, and land subsidence.

Coastal sand dunes of southeast Sri Lanka

Journal of the National Science Foundation of Sri Lanka, 1990
Sand dunes are the most common landforms of the Sri .Lankan coasts even though little attention has been paid to them in the field of geomorphological studies in the island. In the first part of this study.the large-scale factors governing the sand dune formation are analysed, as an introduction to the aeolian environment of thc SE coast. In the second

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1476-1499, September 2026.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sandy beaches are dynamic ecosystems where terrestrial and marine organisms coexist, resulting in diverse communities where microeukaryotes (protists, microalgae, and meiofauna) are key drivers. Understanding their diversity patterns and responses to stressors is essential for elucidating ecological processes, yet information on this subject ...

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9126-9143, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...
