Multiple global‐change drivers and cascading effects in Mediterranean ecosystems: Lessons from an iconic national park

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Mediterranean ecosystems face complex, multi‐trophic impacts from global‐change drivers, yet responses are often studied in isolation. Using the Doñana Protected Area as a case study, we illustrate how anthropogenic pressures on key species like cork oaks and rabbits, as well as increases in species like wild boar and invasive crayfish, lead to ...

A Century of Shifting Native Species‐Accumulation Curves Reveals Long‐Term Biodiversity Loss

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using nearly a century of vegetation‐plot data across the Netherlands, we show that species‐area relationships have significantly flattened over time, meaning that larger areas are now required to support the same level of species richness as the historical baseline. This shift reflects widespread biodiversity decline and biotic homogenization.

Unravelling a Rapid Radiation: Biogeography and Niche Evolution of Carex sect. Echinochlaenae Kük. (Cyperaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Carex section Echinochlaenae has a disjunct distribution across the Southern Hemisphere. It displays a clear center of diversity in New Zealand coupled with extreme morphological and ecological diversification, suggesting a potential evolutionary radiation.

Niche Dynamics Under Current and Future Climates of South African Plants in France

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim While climatic niche dynamics of invasive plants have been increasingly studied worldwide, comparative assessments disentangling niche conservatism from expansion into analogue and non‐analogue climates remain very limited in France. Here, the climatic niche dynamics of four South African plant species established in France were quantified,

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.
