High‐Resolution Community Profiling of Active Bacteria and Eukaryotes in Replant‐Diseased Blueberry Farm Soils From New Jersey, USA

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Long read bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomal operon sequencing combined with stable isotope probing (SIP) allowed the differentiation of microbiomes in low‐ and high‐yield blueberry farm soils. This report may ultimately be used to improve productivity and potentially detect the responsible pathogenic agent(s) or other deleterious microbes.

Amphibians' Expansion to Record Elevations Influences Chytrid (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) Infection Dynamics

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Peruvian frogs underwent a climate‐driven range expansion into deglaciating mountains, exposing themselves and their fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) to challenging new thermal environments. Bd has dispersed extensively in these new habitats, and elevation may mediate the apparent sublethal impacts of infection for frogs.

Acoustic Indices Reveal Fundamental Differences in Daily Phenology of Tropical and Temperate Forest Soundscapes

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Forests support the majority of the planet's terrestrial biodiversity, and in recent years the characterisation of soundscapes has emerged as a powerful tool for understanding forest ecosystems, both in terms of ecology and for the purpose of conservation.

Along the Silenced Footsteps of Latin American Pastoralists: From Mexico to Argentina, a Journey Through Pastoral Systems in Latin America

The Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 31, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Pastoralism worldwide faces a complex landscape of increased pressures and exclusion. Beyond ecological and economic challenges, pastoralists suffer eroding cultural identity, limited generational renewal, and political marginalization. Yet pastoral livelihoods are increasingly recognized as stewards of sustainable futures and amongst the best

Palaeoglacier reconstruction and dynamics of Cordillera Vilcanota in the tropical high Peruvian Andes

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
We provide a geomorphological analysis of Cordillera Vilcanota and use morphostratigraphic principles to reconstruct palaeo icefield extent and palaeoglacier readvances, likely during the Antarctic Cold Reversal and Younger Dryas. We find evidence of temperate and polythermal ice margins, with limited glaciofluvial landform generation.

Revista de Dialectología y Tradiciones Populares, 1998
Las sociedades andinas presentan formas de culto peculiares que no encajan con la ortodoxia católica, a pesar de ser tutelarmente asimiladas por aquella como manifestaciones populares de catolicismo.

Microbial Metabolism and Disease Virulence Changes Across Day and Night in Coral Black Band Disease Lesions

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2026.
Metatranscriptomic reads from black band disease (BBD) lesions derived from samples collected during the day and night were mapped to near‐complete BBD‐derived metagenome‐assembled genomes to profile diurnal metabolic shifts among key microbial groups. Photosynthesis genes from the cyanobacterium Roseofilum reptotaenium were highly expressed during the

Changes in Key Biodiversity Area networks following national comprehensive assessments

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Making comprehensive assessments of Key Biodiversity Area (KBA) networks in a country greatly increases their number and area. Countries that have not yet done so will be missing about half of these globally significant sites and missing the opportunity to get 30 × 30 conservation in the right places. Abstract Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites of
