Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

Environmental influence on intraspecific trait variation in the tropical seagrass Halodule uninervis
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.Intraspecific trait variation (ITV) enhances the precision of applying functional trait approaches in plant ecology. Despite its benefits, ITV is rarely considered in functional trait‐based seagrass research. The goal of our research is to measure ITV in the tropical seagrass species Halodule uninervis and assess the environmental factors associated ...

The paradox of mosquito net fishing: Complex socio‐ecological trade‐offs in southwestern Madagascar
People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1755-1772, June 2026.Abstract Small‐scale fisheries are vital for the livelihoods, nutrition and well‐being of millions of people in coastal regions. In many parts of the Global South, rising poverty, limited alternatives and declining resources have driven the spread of mosquito net fishing (MNF), a non‐selective practice using repurposed health‐distributed nets.

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1852-1868, June 2026.Abstract The societal and biophysical permeability across human‐demarcated jurisdictions within watersheds necessitates collaboration among administrative regions. The effectiveness of such collaboration is partly determined by the degree to which institutional arrangements align with underlying social and ecological interdependencies, a concept ...

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Mangrove composition and structure vary with soil properties and alterations in these conditions may result in forest degradation. This study examines how soil properties relate to mangrove structure across three disturbance states. The study was conducted within the Ramsar Site 1602 in Veracruz, Mexico.

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution represents a growing environmental challenge, especially in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the Global South, where methodological fragmentation, funding discontinuity, and dependence on external analytical infrastructure limit the production of comparable data and the formulation of evidence‐based ...

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.COVER PHOTO: Red gorgonians (Paramuricea clavata) and black corals (Antipathella subpinnata) form dense animal forests on mesophotic reefs (40–100 m) of the Aegean Sea. The diversity and distinctiveness of fish communities found in these mesophotic animal forests were investigated through visual census and collection of cryptic species by rebreather ...

Blue Nitrogen Follows the Fate of Tidal Wetlands
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Tidal wetlands sequester carbon (C) at much higher rates per area than other ecosystems, helping to offset C emissions. The burial of organic C in tidal wetland soils, “blue C”, is tightly linked to the cycling of nitrogen (N), which is a key pollutant and limiting nutrient for many ecosystems.

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Humans are now operating well outside the planetary conditions under which social and economic development has been possible. A precondition for securing equitable access to this prosperity is to safeguard the stability of the Earth system. The situation is urgent—we need a swift and profound shift in direction—a collective transformation.
