Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1568-1581, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

Riparian Restoration Improves Physical Habitat but Not Ecosystem Functioning to Reference Levels in Urban Neotropical Streams

open access: yesInternational Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanization modifies stream ecosystems through changes in land use and water quality, with particularly understudied effects in tropical regions. This study evaluates how the conservation status (reference, restored, and impacted) influences nutrient enrichment and organic matter decomposition—key indicators of ecosystem function—across five ...

Assessing the Impact of Wastewater Flow Rates on SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA Detection: Insights for Environmental Surveillance and Policymaking

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
We meta‐analyzed 10 studies to assess whether influent flow rate affects SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA detection in wastewater treatment plants serving ≤60,000 inhabitants. The pooled odds ratio (2.08; 95% CI: 0.994–37; p = 0.053) showed no significant association between flow rate and detection probability.

Strategic Roadmap for Addressing Microplastic Pollution in the Global South: Bridging Monitoring Gaps, Harmonizing Methods, and Building Analytical Capacity

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution represents a growing environmental challenge, especially in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the Global South, where methodological fragmentation, funding discontinuity, and dependence on external analytical infrastructure limit the production of comparable data and the formulation of evidence‐based ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...
