Panama Canal expansion and shifts in fishing practices: A social‐ecological network approach

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1520-1532, May 2026.
Abstract Species introductions have spiked over the past two centuries due to globalization. These introductions impact ecosystems, but may also have long‐term implications for human communities. In one of the world's hubs for global shipping, the Panama Canal, a recent canal expansion has coincided with an increase in marine fishes entering the ...

On Reparative Science

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Through a radical re‐reading of Orlando Fals Borda's conceptualization of participatory action research (PAR), I argue that PAR is more adequately grounded within the broader Fals Bordian framing of ciencia popular, defined as science for, with, and propelled by social movements.

Morphological, Molecular, and Isotopic Approaches to Termite Ecology: A Mangrove Case Study

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Termite communities in Caribbean mangroves, though species‐poor, sustain crucial decomposition and nutrient cycling. Their overlapping niches and stochastic assembly highlight termites' resilience and ecological importance in supporting the functioning of these challenging coastal ecosystems.

Implementation Punctuation: The Role of Feedback, Narratives, and Implementation in the Punctuated Equilibrium Theory

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Based on the Punctuated Equilibrium Theory (PET) and implementation research, this study proposes an extended conceptualization of policy punctuation that enables researchers to systematically include policy implementation as part of a punctuation. The key mechanisms underlying the PET, i.e., policy image and venue, information processing, and

Non‐Members in a Tight Spot: How Norway Navigated Autonomy in EU Pandemic Management

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study offers new insights into how closely integrated non‐member states navigate tensions between autonomy and dependence when urgent policy responses are required within complex supranational frameworks. It does so by exploring how these non‐members exercise their “wriggle room”—a tailored sub‐category of the broader concept of autonomy ...

Environmental governance in the face of collapse: The case of Acapulco, Mexico, between tourist splendour and ecological risk

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Underwater clean‐up efforts in Acapulco Bay reveal the visible consequences of chronic coastal pollution. This study shows how Environmental Risk Assessments (ERAs) can integrate scientific evidence, regulatory frameworks and practitioner experience to identify pollution sources and guide more effective coastal governance in cities of the Global South.

Unravelling the spatial and temporal variability of natural disturbances in European forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
The heterogeneity of natural disturbance patterns and high temporal variability across European Forest suggest the need of adopting context‐dependent management strategies tailored to both the dominant disturbance agent and local environmental conditions, particularly in the most vulnerable regions, such as the Iberian Peninsula—with large and frequent

Local canopy cover, shade tree identity and landscape tree cover shape leaf‐cutter ant nest density and herbivory in cacao agroforestry systems

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our findings provide practical guidance for agroforestry management by demonstrating that intercropping with selected species can mitigate damage from leaf‐cutter ants in cacao agroforests. At the landscape scale, high tree cover was associated with low herbivory rates, emphasising the need to maintain or restore forested habitats.

As above, so below: A perspective into the application of land‐forest monitoring methods for the assessment of marine animal forests

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1124-1142, April 2026.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are benthic ecosystems dominated by vertically structuring filter‐ and suspension‐feeders. As terrestrial forests, they are considered biodiversity hotspots, forming canopies, serving as a refuge, nursery, reproduction and feeding shelters for many species.

Derivados climáticos

open access: yes, 2012
Los derivados climáticos componen un instrumento para reducir el riesgo financiero que afrontan empresas cuyas ganancias o flujos de efectivo están directamente correlacionados a las condiciones climáticas. Proporcionan cobertura frente a eventos altamente probables (lluvias, sequías, nieve, temperaturas demasiado altas/frías, etc.) de relativo bajo ...
