Prioritizing bat roosts for conservation with a global multicriteria bat roost priority index based on community science

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.

Scenarios and strategies for future‐proofing ecosystem management under climatic novelty

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Climate change is driving unprecedented declines in dominant, habitat‐forming foundation species across marine and terrestrial ecosystems globally. As climatic novelty becomes the norm, ecosystem reassembly will become increasingly common. Predicting and understanding these transitions, and their implications for future ecosystem functioning ...

Don't You Know That You're Toxic? How Influencer‐Driven Misinformation Fuels Online Toxicity

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 1160-1181, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Research on misinformation has focused on message content and cognitive bias, overlooking how source type shapes toxic engagement. This study addresses that gap by showing that influencer‐driven misinformation does not merely increase toxicity: it reconfigures its nature and persistence through relational and social influence mechanisms ...

The Role of European Union (EU) Metagovernance in Supporting the Voluntary and Community Sector in Northern Ireland

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, Volume 12, Issue 1, Winter 2026.
ABSTRACT This article argues that European Union (EU) peacebuilding scholarship can benefit from organizational research on the socio‐spatial dynamics of policy implementation. It introduces a strategic‐relational heuristic to address two key gaps: the marginalization of grassroots agency in spatial analyses and the separation of strategy from ...

Climate Change‐Induced Distribution Shifts of Keratin‐Feeding Beetle Omorgus (Omorgus) suberosus: Implications for Olive Ridley Sea Turtle Lepidochelys olivacea Conservation

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 803-816, December 2025.
Our study projects significant climate change‐induced distribution shifts of a keratin‐feeding beetle Omorgus suberosus, with expansions into higher latitudes in Europe and North America and notable habitat losses in tropical regions by 2100. Ecological niche models predict a global habitat reduction of 9.5% under SSP2–4.5 and 20.8% under SSP5–8.5 ...

Foliar spectral signatures reveal adaptive divergence in live oaks (Quercus section Virentes) across species and environmental niches

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 370-388, October 2025.
Summary Genomic tools have advanced our understanding of species and population structure, but distinguishing neutral from adaptive evolution remains challenging due to limited methods for measuring a broad spectrum of phenotypic traits. We used spectroscopic data from preserved leaves to test for adaptive divergence among populations of live oaks ...

Gill evolution in Neotropical electric fishes: Comparative phylogenetic evidence for hypoxia‐driven adaptation

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 1940-1956, August 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Tropical freshwater fishes are often exposed to hypoxia, which limits aerobic metabolism and drives the evolution of diverse physiological, behavioural and morphological adaptations.
