How Large, Decayed, and Moist Must Rotting Logs Be to Act as Thermally Buffered Microhabitats in Temperate Eastern United States Forests?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study addresses the ecological role of coarse woody debris (CWD) as a thermally buffered microhabitat for saproxylic organisms in temperate eastern US forests. We measured internal and external log temperatures across four seasons in Southern Appalachian forests to test how log diameter, decay stage, and moisture influence thermal buffering.

Influence of Deadwood, Tree‐Related Microhabitats, and Forest Structural Features on Saproxylic Arthropod Diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

Directed Communication in Theta and Alpha Networks Supports Content Handling in Working Memory

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 7, May 2026.
We examined mental rotation and delineated the role of directed communication in theta and alpha band activity in cortical networks. ABSTRACT Executive functions enable flexible control of behavior by dynamically coordinating perception, memory, and action.

When Snowpacks Shrink: Declining Weathering and Export Rates but Rising Stream Solute Concentrations in Warming Mountains

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
In a snow‐dominated headwater catchment, snow‐dependent water storage controls silicate weathering and solute export. In the driest year with the least snow water equivalent (SWE), rates of silicate weathering and export rates of weathering products were about half and a third of those in the wettest year with the highest SWE.

Water quality in reference watersheds in the United States: A compilation and analysis of small watershed data

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract The natural background contribution from grasslands and forest lands is important to consider in research and management to address the contribution of agricultural, industrial, and urban lands to water quality degradation. To our knowledge, no study has compiled and analyzed reference water quality from small reference grasslands and forests ...
