Modeling Phenotypic Trait Variation and Plasticity in Elymus elymoides to Guide Climate‐Informed Seed Transfer

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Information on climate‐associated phenotypic variation is essential for sourcing seed that matches restoration site conditions. Spatially explicit seed transfer models can effectively deliver this information. However, standard modeling approaches often do not provide flexibility for practical considerations and may not capture highly complex ...

Climate Change Can Generate Enemy‐Free Space for Crop‐Feeding Herbivores

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
Magnitude and direction of change in parasitoid pressure for 14 agricultural pests subject to climate‐driven distributional shifts. Pests are organized per increasing parasitoid pressure under current climatic conditions (X axis). Bubble size is reflective of the (absolute) area affected by a given pest under a given scenario.

Disturbance Legacy and Landscape‐Scale Temperature Variability Are Associated With Lepidoptera Richness in Temperate Forests

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Forests across Central Europe are undergoing rapid changes driven by disturbance and climate variability, with uncertain consequences for insect biodiversity. Lepidoptera, being sensitive to habitat structure and microclimatic conditions, are ideal model organisms to study these dynamics.

Enhancing Urban Flood Loss Mapping by Integrating ANFIS Classifier With a Two‐Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flood loss mapping is one of the essential prerequisites for urban flood assessment studies to identify areas vulnerable to floods and to make cities safe and resilient. This study develops a neuro‐fuzzy loss model to generate flood loss maps, classifying loss levels into several categories ranging from no loss to severe loss.

Soil Metabarcoding Helps Identify Recalcitrant Taxa From Chaparral Seed Banks

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Soil seed banks preserve plant diversity, but traditional germination methods often miss dormant or hard‐to‐germinate species. Our study tested metabarcoding as an alternative, finding that DNA‐based sequencing was more reliable than RNA and that water treatments influenced sequencing results.
