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,

More than just a margin: Local and landscape‐scale factors regulating the effects of riparian forest buffers on stream‐riparian ecosystems in urban and agricultural landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Riparian forest buffers support biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and food webs in human‐modified landscapes, and dampen land‐use and climate stressors (sediments, nutrients, thermal maxima), motivating their wider use in management. These outcomes were regulated by the presence or size of mostly small, mature buffers and sometimes by proximity among

Recipient Selection and Outcomes After Out‐of‐Sequence Kidney Allocation Since Implementation of Kidney Allocation System 250 (KAS250): A Single‐Center Experience

open access: yesClinical Transplantation, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Allocation out of sequence (AOOS) of kidneys has increased after KAS250 and raised concerns regarding transparency and equitable recipient selection. Less is known about recipient selection and outcomes at individual centers. Methods We performed a single‐center retrospective study of adult deceased donor kidney transplants at the
