River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Diversity and Distribution Patterns of Insects in Nigeria: A GBIF‐Based Appraisal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Insect diversity in Nigeria is high, with 5880 species. Diversity differs between biomes. Current diversity represents ~21 of the estimated ‘true’ diversity. ABSTRACT Insects provide essential ecosystem services and are key indicators of ecosystem health.

STUDY OF EPHEMEROPTERA IN WARM SOMES GORGES

open access: yesAgricultura, 2009
Ephemeroptera group is unique in the world of insect wing, because they have two adult stages. The first, called subimago, is developed from the final larva stage. Drift phenomenon, found to larvae favor the popullation of new area.

Shifts in Southeastern Bat Communities Driven by Landscape Composition Rather Than Ecological Release

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using 25 years of capture data from Fort Campbell Military Installation, we evaluated whether white‐nose syndrome (WNS)‐driven declines in susceptible bats were followed by increases in non‐susceptible species (ecological release) versus shifts driven by land use change, at the installation and site specific spatial scales.

Assessing Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes Through Drone‐Based Environmental DNA Sampling

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We developed a drone‐based environmental DNA (eDNA) swabbing method to assess hexapod diversity in agricultural fields under three management types (conventional, organic, and IP‐Suisse), detecting 75 taxa across 19 families. eDNA replicates showed consistent within‐field results, though no significant differences in diversity were found between ...

Continental accumulation of fads2 copy numbers allows sticklebacks to thrive across a diversity of nutritional landscapes

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Tell me where you flow and I will tell you who you are: basin context shapes the insect fauna of small tributaries

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
The traditional view of river basins as linear corridors has led to numerous studies examining the effects of stream size on aquatic communities. However, similar‐sized streams may harbor distinct faunal assemblages depending on their spatial context within the basin. Headwater tributaries (HTs) that flow into small streams, in the periphery of basins,
