Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1155-1171, May 2026.
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...

Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.

Generation and Dissipation of Infragravity Waves Over Natural and Engineered Chenier Plain During Hurricane Laura

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Infragravity (IG) waves play a crucial role in nearshore hydrodynamics and sediment transport; however, their generation and dissipation mechanisms during extreme storms remain challenging to assess due to limited data availability, site‐specific characteristics of natural landscapes, and anthropogenic effects.

Habitat characteristics drive fish recruitment enhancement in threatened coastal nursery habitats

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings underscore the importance of habitat attributes and physical settings as the key predictors of fish enhancement across threatened coastal nurseries of North America. Restoration and management efforts should aim to optimize these factors to maximize fish recruitment potential amid ecosystem degradation. Abstract Structured coastal habitats

Estimating ecological thresholds for good status using natural variation in reference conditions

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
The framework outlined here presents a transparent, robust, scalable and pressure‐independent approach to estimate the probability of an ecosystem component being in good status for a range of marine systems. This straightforward and easily understood approach can be used to estimate thresholds for good status where they are missing for ecological ...

Conservation and restoration of red seaweed eucheumatoids in Malaysia: A community insight

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
The local community in Malaysia has a moderate level of knowledge of seaweed conservation and restoration but demonstrates a strong commitment in improving their knowledge gap. One of the efforts to increase local community awareness and understanding of the importance of wild seaweed is by linking the economic benefits derived from the seaweed ...

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.
