Multifactorial diagnosis of drought‐induced decline in Mediterranean conifer forests
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.A multi‐proxy approach integrating radial growth, leaf morphology, stable isotopes, elemental composition and soil properties revealed interacting mechanisms underlying drought‐induced dieback in Mediterranean pine populations. Declining trees showed stronger drought impacts on growth, altered stomatal regulation, nutrient imbalances and accelerated ...

Shrub canopies preserve climatic niche disparity among recruit species in Mediterranean drylands
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.Shrub canopies create microrefuges for recruit diversity. Across 10 Mediterranean shrublands, recruits beneath canopies encompassed a wider range of climatic niches and greater phylogenetic diversity than those in open ground. By hosting diverse climatic strategies, plant canopies may help sustain biodiversity under climate change, offering a ...

Gender &History, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 799-809, October 2026.ABSTRACT An analysis of the dual biographies, economic and domestic, of Manuela Xiqués, an enslaver from nineteenth‐century Cuba and Spain, deepens our understanding of the role of European and Creole women in the nineteenth‐century Atlantic. This essay foregrounds the role of literature, namely family biography, as a locus of the processes of ...

Getting to the Core of the Matter—Assessing the Role of Replication in Metabarcoding‐Based sedaDNA
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.ABSTRACT Replication is central to most experimental and sampling designs, increasing inferential power and capturing fine‐scale data heterogeneity. However, its importance remains poorly evaluated in some ecological and evolutionary settings. This is the case of metabarcoding studies using DNA recovered from sedimentary archives, in which biological ...

Early Bronze Age Copper Circulation in the Guadalentín and Segura Valleys (SE Spain)
Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1139-1151, October 2026.ABSTRACT Identifying the sources of copper used in Early Bronze Age metalwork from south‐east Spain is key to resolving a long‐running debate concerning centralized control, or lack thereof, over El Argar society's economic organisation. This study provides the first substantial integrated programme of EDXRF and MC‐ICP‐MS analyses for copper‐base ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
Acta Zoologica, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 409-431, October 2026.ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.Abstract Biodiversity is globally threatened by human impacts, including land‐use transformation and climate change, which has prompted a rapid transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources, such as photovoltaic (PV) energy. However, utility‐scale PV plants require vast areas and can lead to conflicts with biodiversity conservation, making ...

Preventing Invasive Non‐Native Species: A Horizon Scanning for the Canary Islands
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Oceanic islands host exceptional biodiversity and endemism but are highly vulnerable to biological invasions. We aimed to identify non‐native species with high potential to invade the Canary Islands within the next decade and to prioritise them based on their environmental and socioeconomic risks.

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT The combination of geographical factors (climate, slope, orientation, lithology, water availability, etc.) and the pathogenicity of agents such as the oomycete from the kingdom Straminopile Phytophthora or Pythium species causes the plant disease known as oak decline in the Iberian Peninsula. Leaving aside the presence of the pathogen, the aim

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1031-1043, October 2026.ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...
