Innovative learning environments in New Zealand primary schools: The roles of parents, communities and school leadership

open access: yesReview of Education, Volume 14, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract This article is situated within the framework of how the built environment and its use connect to governmental policy. Research looking at the implementation of innovative learning environments (ILEs) has focused primarily on the experiences and perceptions of ‘users’ (teachers and students).

Carbon‐Nutrient Interactions Under Insect Disturbance Simulated by the Land‐Surface Model QUINCY 21edff48

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Insect outbreaks significantly impact tree mortality and carbon‐nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems, yet most terrestrial biosphere models do not represent insect disturbances due to the complexity of nutrient processes and limited data. To address this gap, we implemented a new insect impacts module in the QUINCY (Quantifying Interactions ...

Reorganization without disruption: How fire‐driven spatiotemporal changes in floral resource landscapes influence plant–bee interaction networks

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Contrary to fire suppression policies that promote ecological homogenization, we suggest that patchy prescribed fires could be used to enhance spatiotemporal diversity in the Cerrado by promoting fine‐scale heterogeneity in floral resources and resource‐mediated plant–bee interactions.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Searching for the beasts in the archive as methodological praxis

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
This article offers searching for the beasts in the archive as a methodological tool available to researchers invested in both anticolonialism and antianthropocentrism. By focusing on three basic units of reference—categories, histories, and borders—the article shows how searching for the beasts unsettles some taken‐for‐granted assumptions that ...

Cultural geography of heat: Artistic experiments with heat’s animacies

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A sustained, cultural geographical engagement with heat is long overdue. I advance this agenda by engaging with the work of contemporary artists. Artists are responding to uneven conditions of global heating by exploring heat’s animacies: how heat interweaves with the practices and textures of life.

A Baseline Checklist of Mosquito Species (Diptera: Culicidae) From Tasmania, Australia, and Implications for Public Health Arbovirus Surveillance and Biosecurity

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) are of major public health importance due to their role as vectors of mosquito‐borne pathogens and the impact of nuisance biting. Accurate geographical knowledge of mosquito fauna is the foundation of effective arbovirus surveillance and biosecurity.
