Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Farm‐Scale Recharge Pits for Improving Local Groundwater Availability: Insights From a Hardrock Watershed in Rajasthan, India

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater depletion is a major challenge in semiarid, hard‐rock regions where irrigation demands often exceed natural recharge. This study evaluates the effectiveness of farm‐scale recharge pits as a local, supplementary, and community‐managed groundwater recharge solution in the Dharta catchment of Rajasthan, India. Alongside check dams and

Must the Shit Hit the Fan Before Anyone Responds? Response‐Activating Texts as Catalysts for Organisational Responsiveness

open access: yesRisk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The article examines how ‘soft’ information functions in rational organisations that emphasise hard information, and how this affects safety. Drawing on fieldwork in a high‐security prison, we analyse how frontline personnel interpret soft information about potential disturbances. We identify three coexisting institutional logics shaping these

Simulating drying and human impacts on river networks to evaluate biological quality indices performance through the lens of metacommunity theory

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work constitutes a first step towards developing simulation‐based assessments that incorporate catchment drying patterns to support biomonitoring of drying river networks. Our approach can inform stakeholders when current methods are likely to fail and contribute to decision‐making on whether adapting current methods is possible or developing new ...

BIEN: A biodiversity informatics ecosystem advancing open and reproducible workflows for plant observation, plot and trait data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1556-1584, May 2026.
Abstract The rapid expansion of biodiversity data presents new opportunities to understand and forecast biosphere dynamics. However, disparate and dispersed data, taxonomic and geographic inconsistencies, pervasive quality issues, and a lack of reproducable workflows hinder synthesis, introduce biases and limit accurate assessment of biodiversity ...

Exploring ecohydrology through the lens of local fishers in the Bolivian Amazon

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The natural flow regimes of Andean‐Amazon tributaries play a vital role in sustaining their rich biodiversity and productive local fisheries, but ongoing and proposed alteration of river flow regimes by large dams threatens to negatively impact river ecosystems. Despite its importance, our understanding of how hydrologic variability influences
