Flooding and a complex predator community drive American oystercatcher nest and chick survival in Virginia

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated low American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) productivity in the Virginia barrier islands, which historically supported high oystercatcher reproductive success. We found that chick survival was lower than nest survival, and that management may need to adapt to address evolving threats from coastal flooding and a multi‐guild ...

Impact of anthropogenic disturbances on beetle communities of French Mediterranean coastal dunes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In coastal dunes, influenced by anthropogenic activities such as tourism, it is important to determine the relative influence of environmental factors at different spatial scales to evaluate the sensitivity of local communities to disturbances.

The date and context of the Astronomer's Life of Louis the Pious

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 70-100, February 2026.
The Astronomer's Life of the emperor Louis the Pious (814–40) is a canonical source for scholars of Frankish history. It sits at the centre of recent debates about the nature and tone of Carolingian political discourse, and about the crisis of the empire in the 830s.

Habitat‐Based Predictions of Bridle Shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) in the Northeastern United States

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We developed local and regional models for Maine and New Hampshire that may be used to focus bridle shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) surveys on areas with high predicted habitat suitability. This is significant because bridle shiners receive protection or concern status in thirteen states and two Canadian provinces: Limited data show that bridle shiners ...

A Machine Learning Application to Camera‐Traps: Robust Species Interactions Datasets for Analysis of Mutualistic Networks

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our study includes novel components, focusing on plant‐animal interaction data as study case. We provide comprehensive guidelines and a proven methodology, aligned with existing camera trap standards, for the creation of reliable datasets, as well as a detailed discussion of limitations and logistic challenges. Beyond presenting AI performance metrics,

Spatiotemporal Variation of Ecological Quality in the Yinshan Mountains Detected by MODIS Remote Sensing Indicators

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
A comprehensive ecological index MRSEI based on MODIS was proposed. The new indicators of greenness, humidity, and dryness are more applicable to the ecological evaluation of the desertification steppes. The introduction of comprehensive salinity index can effectively reflect the issue of soil salinization. FROM‐TO vector transformation can effectively

The role and value of water in natural capital restoration on the Agulhas Plain [PDF]

open access: yes
The Agulhas Plain is a low-lying coastal area within the Cape Floristic Region classified as one of the six plant kingdoms of the world. The area is heavily invaded by alien vegetation that infringes upon the sustainable supply of ecosystem goods and ...

Divergent Nutrient Resorption Strategies in C4 Desert Shrubs: Stoichiometric Evidence From Assimilative Branches

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We assessed interspecific differences in nutrient resorption efficiencies (N, P, K) of assimilative branches in three Calligonum species from the Junggar Desert. The results revealed distinct nutrient resorption strategies and scaling relationships among species, closely linked to both internal nutrient status and environmental factors.
