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.

Entrainment of Muddy Sediment From Immobile Gravel River Beds
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract This study examines the transport of fine muddy sediment through a gravel‐bed reach. In such cases, mud is often conceptualized as a size fraction that interacts little with the bed (i.e., as washload). However, previous studies have shown that mud can deposit within gravel beds.

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Precipitation is scarce in arid regions, making water redistribution a key driver of vegetation patterns, especially for non‐zonal vegetation in oases. Nevertheless, the coupling and mutual feedback mechanism between water and vegetation distribution is complex, and it has not been fully addressed. Taking an arid region of Northwest China as a

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.

Dune and pool restoration in Cortadura beach (SW Spain)
, 2004 Extensive Spanish dune areas were totally altered due to massive littoral building projects during the 1960's. After the 1988 Spanish Shore Act, the Coastal Authority, Ministry of Environment has been aware of the problem and has undertaken a strong polic of dune restoration.

Climatic Legacies Drive Spatial Aggregation of Plants in Drylands
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.The past can leave traces that even time struggles to erase. Using global vegetation and paleoclimate datasets, we show that past climates leave a stronger imprint on dryland vegetation spatial aggregation than current climates, likely through long‐lasting effects on soil properties.

An innovative sand dune restoration project from Malta
, 2003 Sand dunes arguably qualify as the most endangered natural habitats in the Maltese Islands due to the small size of the dunes, the low proportion of sandy shores (just 2.4% of the entire islands‟ coastline), the intense human impact, and the lack of public awareness and information about these ecosystems.
