Stochastic Modelling of Daily Precipitation in Semi‐Arid Regions Using Markov Chains and Parametric Distributions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 4, 30 March 2026.
This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Integrative assessment and management implications on loss of ecosystem services value of desert-oasis ecotone due to artificial oasis expansion

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
The ecosystem services value (ESV) is essential for preventing environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. The expansion of artificial oases has led to a decrease in ESV in the desert-oasis ecotone of arid regions.

Relating Freshwater Flow with Estuarine Water Quality in the Southern Everglades Mangrove Ecotone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Florida Bay is more saline than it was historically, and reduced freshwater flows may lead to more phosphorus inputs to the mangrove ecotone from the marine end-member. This is important given plans to restore freshwater flow into eastern Florida Bay. We

Strategies of Sufficiency Under Institutional Complexity: A Study in the German Food Industry

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 3301-3328, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Organizations face increasing institutional complexity as they navigate competing demands from their institutional environment regarding financial performance and environmental responsibility. In our study, we examine how 39 award‐winning organizations in the German food industry frame sufficiency, a sustainability strategy focusing on ...

Treeline structure and regeneration pattern in protected and non-protected areas, Indian western Himalaya

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People
Treeline ecotone in the Himalayan region is a relevant ecological indicator of environmental perturbations and anthropogenic disturbances. Given this, six representative sites (3 each in protected and non-protected areas) were selected for assessing ...

Plant interactions, climate, and the reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) interdependently shape vegetation in northern Finland

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract There is limited understanding on how complex interdependencies among large herbivore grazing, competitive and facilitative interactions among plants, and the changes in temperatures and precipitation shape northern boreal and subarctic ecosystems.

Predation Risk Does Not Delay Breeding but Reduces Nest Survival in High‐Arctic Shorebirds

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We assessed the impact of arctic foxes' predation pressure on two sympatric sandpiper species. Fox activity influenced the breeding ecology of both sandpipers, with earlier nest initiations and lower nest survival rates in areas of high fox activity. ABSTRACT Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for correctly answering many fundamental ...

Consistent Trait Patterns in a Hyper Diverse Moth Clade Along a Western Himalayan Elevational Gradient

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study examines how Geometrid moth assemblages along a 1500‐m elevational gradient in the western Himalayas respond to temperature and air density shifts. While species diversity declines with elevation and turnover occurs from low to high elevations, no significant changes in morphological or flight traits were observed at the assemblage level ...
