Identifying climate‐change refugia for species management and conservation in the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The impacts of climate change are already affecting many species and habitats, presenting challenges for species management and conservation. Protecting climate refugia—areas buffered from climate shifts where species can persist despite broader changes—has been proposed as a tool for managing species under climate change.

Individuality obscures geographical song variation in two passerine sister species with contrasting distributions and movement ecology

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 95-116, January 2026.
Songbirds are a well‐established model group for the study of cultural evolution as their songs are learned (i.e. culturally transmitted), which may lead to divergence in song characteristics between populations. Song variation across populations may be affected by geographical isolation, timing and duration of the learning period, and life strategies ...

Spreading of recently introduced North American sand dropseed (Sporobolus cryptandrus) threatens European native dry grassland arthropods

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 131-145, January 2026.
The effects of sand dropseed (Sporobolus cryptandrus) invasion on arthropods depended on its density and varied between habitat types and arthropod groups. Vegetation‐dwelling, primarily herbivorous orthopterans and true bugs were most sensitive to invasion. Sand dropseed negatively affected the arthropod species of high natural value.
