Determinants of Bird Richness in the Louzishan National Nature Reserve: Effects of Productivity and Habitat Heterogeneity Across Taxonomic and Functional Dimensions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We want to reveal the relationship between the alpha and beta diversity of birds and its two components with vegetation productivity and habitat heterogeneity from both taxonomic and functional perspectives. Our findings reveal productivity, as an important environmental variable, influences bird species richness and compositional differences from two ...

Spatial distribution of acoustic traits in bird assemblages along regional bioclimatic gradients

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Environmental variation shapes acoustic interactions among birds, creating spatial structures in the sonic signature of local species assemblages. Exploring these patterns at regional scales can reveal processes that segregate acoustic strategies along environmental gradients.

Modeling Land Management Impacts: Asymmetric Reductions of Sediment and Phosphorus Versus Legacy Nitrogen in the Enkare Narok Catchment in Kenya

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Conservation practices in an East African catchment dramatically cut sediment (80%) and phosphorus (76%) loads but are markedly less effective on nitrogen (8% reduction) due to legacy groundwater nitrate, revealing a critical trade‐off between water quality and quantity.

Biodiversity and biomass co‐regulate urban forest drought resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 24, Issue 5, June 2026.
Severe droughts induced by climate change present substantial challenges to urban forests. While the role that species richness plays in enhancing drought resistance in natural ecosystems has been highlighted in previous studies, its impact within urban forests remains less understood.

Hotspots and Blind Spots in Global River Temperature Science: Implications for Evidencing Climate Adaptation

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
This systematic review and bibliometric synthesis of 529 primary studies (1990–2025) maps the thematic, methodological and geographic structure of river water temperature (Tw) science. Evidence is concentrated in high‐income temperate regions, local or catchment‐scale studies, daily data and statistical modelling.

An Isotope‐Based Snapshot Reveals the Combined Influence of High‐Elevation Recharge and Local Return Flows on Groundwater Across Guatemala City

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
Representation (not to scale) of potential high elevation recharge and low elevation return flows within the Guatemala City metropolitan area. ABSTRACT Guatemala City is the most populous urban center in Central America. In this urban center, groundwater extraction within the last 40 years has substantially declined water table levels and accelerated ...

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1126-1152, June 2026.
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...
