Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Downregulation of EPAS1 and EGLN1 mRNA Expression Associated With High‐Altitude Adaptive Genetic Variants in Sherpa Highlanders

open access: yesAnnals of Human Genetics, Volume 90, Issue 3, Page 202-214, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Sherpa highlanders exhibit remarkable tolerance to hypoxia, most likely due to genetic adaptations shaped by natural selection at high altitude. This study examined the roles of endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1) and egl‐9 family hypoxia‐inducible factor 1 (EGLN1) in the genetic mechanisms underlying this adaptation ...

Bed rest decreases resting skeletal muscle O2 uptake and resting energy expenditure in young and elderly subjects

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 5, Page 2599-2612, 1 May 2026.
Abstract A decrease in resting muscle O2 uptake (V̇O2m${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}{\mathrm{m}}}}$) described during bed rest (BR) could determine a decreased whole‐body resting energy expenditure (REE), potentially useful during prolonged spaceflights. Two groups of recreationally active men (young [Y], n = 8, age 23 ± 5 years; elderly [E], n = 10, age ...

Understanding stressors in combination: a continued challenge for human performance

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 5, Page 2464-2475, 1 May 2026.
Abstract Personnel within occupational employment (e.g., military/emergency services) are exposed to various stressors concurrently including psychological, cognitive, physical and environmental. Historically, stressors have been considered and studied in isolation which is not representative of reality.
