Exploring Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) to Detect Soil Pipes: Theoretical Modeling and Field Experiments

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 1126-1142, 15 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion research remains critical for sustainable development as it impacts soil health through different erosive processes. Recent studies on soil piping highlight advancements in detecting surface features (using UAV); however, detecting underground pipes still remains challenging.

A First Quantitative Assessment of Soil Health at European Scale Considering Soil Genesis

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 1, Page 6-16, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Soil health degradation is a major threat to European food security, biodiversity, and climate stability. While scientists have debated how to define soil health during recent decades, a quantifiable framework for monitoring, management, and policy remains lacking.

Threatened or thriving? – The status of Serbian hoverflies on the IUCN European Red List of Hoverflies

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Spatial distribution of Critically Endangered (CR) (a), Endangered (EN) (b), and Vulnerable (VU) (c) species in Serbia, showing overlap with Prime Hoverfly Areas (PHAs) and Protected Areas (PAs). Abstract Given the widespread decline of pollinators worldwide, assessing them using the IUCN criteria is crucial to understand their conservation status ...

Patterns and Drivers of Pest and Disease Occurrence in UK Treescapes

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
Tree pests and diseases can be very damaging to natural and commercial forests. We studied how the risk of tree pests and diseases varies across mainland Great Britain and explored how factors such as urbanisation and recreational visits affect the level of risk in different places.

Population Genomics of a Rare and a Common Wood–Inhabiting Fungal Species Across Europe

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Many species have become threatened during the Anthropocene, requiring conservation strategies based on biological evidence. Wood‐inhabiting fungi face multiple threats due to a complex interplay of a short lifespan, removal of dead wood as a resource and climate change.

Forest Net Primary Production Resistance Across a Gradient of Moderate Disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The global carbon (C) balance is vulnerable to disturbances that alter terrestrial C uptake and loss. Moderate disturbances that kill or defoliate only a subset of canopy trees such as insect defoliation, drought, and age-related senescence are ...
