The projected risk of plant invasions on the peri‐Antarctic islands under climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
The peri‐Antarctic islands have largely been shielded from alien plant species due to low human pressure, limited introduction pathways, and local harsh climates. However, climate change is expected to lower these barriers. We assess the vulnerability of 12 peri‐Antarctic islands to invasion by 2220 plant species invasive in at least one region of the ...

Coupled Thermosphere–Ionosphere–Plasmasphere Disturbances During the April 2023 Geomagnetic Storm: A Ground‐Based Multiparametric Study Across the American and European Sectors

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The April 2023 geomagnetic storm significantly impacted the thermosphere‐ionosphere system, particularly over South America and midlatitude regions. This study analyzes ground‐based geomagnetic and ionospheric data, alongside Swarm satellite measurements, to investigate the physical mechanisms driven by intense solar wind energy input ...

A wolf in fox's clothing? Using stable isotopes to quantify ecological replacement

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2021
Ecological replacement as a conservation tool presupposes that nonnative taxa can restore degraded ecosystems by performing the ecological functions of extinct taxa.

Why did Putin invade Ukraine? A theory of degenerate autocracy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, Volume 70, Issue 4, Page 1606-1620, October 2026.
Abstract Many dictatorships end up with a series of disastrous decisions such as Hitler's attack on the Soviet Union or Saddam Hussein's aggression against Kuwait. Even if a certain policy choice is not ultimately fatal for the regime, such as Mao's Big Leap Forward or the Pol Pot's collectivization drive, they typically involve both a miscalculation ...

Claiming the Isle? Islandness and Territorial Demands

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 1083-1095, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This article explores the relationship between insularity and territorial demands, focusing on whether island territories are more likely to support regionalist and secessionist parties. To address this question, we compare electoral support for such parties across island and mainland territories using a large‐N dataset.

Mathematical Modeling of Pulse‐Seeded Metapopulation Dynamics for Andes Hantavirus Border Dispersal

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
A pulse‐seeded metapopulation SEIR model for Andes hantavirus maritime dispersal shows that heterogeneous quarantine compliance determines secondary outbreak risk. The weakest‐compliance country governs global containment, while uniform compliance above ∼65%$$ \sim 65\% $$ reduces the global reproduction number below unity.
