Cumulative heatwave stress disrupts thermal homeostasis and plumage structure in a Mediterranean passerine

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1960-1978, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Heatwaves are becoming increasingly frequent across the Mediterranean and pose critical challenges for small passerines, yet the physiological and morphological limits to their resilience remain poorly understood.

A quantitative analysis to detect mass mortality events (wrecks) in Procellariiformes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our study provides the first systematic assessment of seabird mass mortality events in the South Atlantic and introduces a transferable statistical framework for detecting MMEs in other taxa and regions lacking baseline mortality information. By identifying recurrent temporal anomalies, high‐risk areas and vulnerable species, we could establish ...

Tree stem methane emissions are regulated by site‐level biogeochemistry over species identity in Amazon floodplain forests

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 179-190, July 2026.
Summary Tree stems in Amazonian floodplains emit substantial methane (CH4), yet controls on emission variability remain unclear. Emissions span orders of magnitude between várzea (nutrient‐rich) and igapó (nutrient‐poor) forests and among trees, suggesting controls beyond flooding.

Effects of selective harvest on antler size of white‐tailed deer in Texas, USA

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 222, Issue 1, June 2026.
We conducted 20 years of experiments on the selective harvest of white‐tailed deer by antler size, judged inferior, in 2 areas of South Texas, USA. Selective harvest increased the phenotypic antler size of older males in one study area but not the other. There was little evidence of evolution resulting from selective harvesting. Abstract There has been

Disentangling conservation asymmetries through socio‐economic transboundary factors across the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest of South America

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1328-1348, May 2026.
Abstract Ecoregions are often defined based on homogeneous biophysical and ecological conditions and are optimal spatial units for designing conservation strategies. However, transboundary ecoregions such as the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest (APAF) experience asymmetrical conservation outcomes, understood here as cross‐border differences, resulting from ...

IMPACTO DA DENSIDADE DO SOLO SOBRE O CRESCIMENTO DE VARIEDADES DE MILHETO

Multi-Science Journal, 2018
Em solos compactados, as raízes encontram impedimento físico que limita o crescimento e sustentação da planta, por reduzir a exploração de camadas úmidas do solo e o acesso a nutrientes que encontram-se distribuídos no perfil.  Com a expansão do plantio direto, cresce a busca por cultivares usada como planta de cobertura e atuem na descompactação do ...

Sugar provisioning increases parasitoid numbers in agroecosystems but may not reduce pest densities: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings demonstrate that providing sugar sources reliably supports parasitoid populations and parasitism rate but does not systematically translate into improved pest suppression or yield gains. These results suggest that, for economic and practical reasons, sugar inputs at the edge of cultivated fields should be favoured.
