Spatial Variability and Long‐Term Trends in Winter Phytoplankton of the Warming Eastern Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The Eastern Mediterranean Sea (EMS) is among the fastest‐warming ocean regions, but the impacts of this warming on phytoplankton are unclear. Here, wintertime field observations were conducted across the EMS. These observations showed that small photosynthetic eukaryotes (<20 μm) dominated phytoplankton communities, collectively accounting for

Exploring the abyss through recent advances in microbial profiling technologies

open access: yesDiscover Oceans
The deep ocean is home to a diverse array of microbial communities crucial for biogeochemical cycling and functioning of the planet. However, marine diversity remains poorly understood due to extreme environmental conditions such as high pressures, wide ...

Tropical Sources Dominate the Ocean Carbonyl Sulfide Budget

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Carbonyl sulfide (OCS) regulates stratospheric aerosol–climate interactions and helps to track terrestrial photosynthesis. Using OCS to infer drivers of stratospheric aerosol loading or biospheric productivity requires understanding its largest and most uncertain natural source—ocean emissions. Top‐down ocean OCS budget estimates inferred from

Man and the Biosphere Programme: biennial activity report 2016-2017.

open access: yes, 2018
UNESCO’S MAN AND THE BIOSPHERE (MAB) PROGRAMME is a rare UN entity, one that includes both a strategic comprehensive vision for sustainable development and a powerful implementation tool endorsed and adhered to by Member States. Through the MAB Programme,

Intraspecific variability rivals interspecific differences in root traits of temperate tree seedlings

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3114-3132, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Global change and associated disturbances are increasing the risk of regeneration failure for tree species in temperate forests. Seedlings are particularly vulnerable to water stress due to their shallow root systems, making below‐ground plasticity a potentially key ...

A new species of Xenosaurus (Squamata: Xenosauridae) from the Sierra Gorda Biosphere Reserve of Querétaro, Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2013
A new species of Xenosaurus from the Sierra Gorda Biosphere Reserve of northeastern Querétaro, Mexico, is described. The new species differs from all of the other described species of the genus by having usually 2 postrostral scales on each side of the ...

No gain from pain: Lack of nociceptor activation suggests no adaptation for defence in the evolution of European viper venoms

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3048-3062, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Snake venoms show variability in composition at all taxonomic levels, both within and between species, and the selective pressures underlying this variation have long been debated.

New lichen records from the mountain forests of Southern Siberia

open access: yesTurczaninowia, 2018
Based on the results of field works mainly in 2009–2017, new data on new and noteworthy lichen species from Southern Siberia are presented. The lichen specimens were collected predominantly by the first author in the mountain dark coniferous forests with

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...
