Elements on the move: How ungulate migration expands Alpine biogeochemical footprints

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using a spatially explicit model parameterized with GPS telemetry, we show that migratory and resident red deer play distinct roles in nitrogen redistribution across alpine landscapes. Migrants uniquely transport nitrogen upslope and up elevation, linking ecosystem element pools and revealing how the loss of migration alters large‐scale ecosystem ...

A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Predicting global habitat suitability and invasion risks of the red gum lerp psyllid Glycaspis brimblecombei under current and future climates

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ecological niche modelling identified highly suitable habitats for Glycaspis brimblecombei across tropical, subtropical and temperate regions. Future climate projections indicate a moderate contraction of suitable areas, with persistence of core climatic suitability. Model performance was robust (AUC = 0.880; TSS = 0.634; CBI = 0.803), with temperature

Rulers on the road: Itinerant rule in the Holy Roman Empire, AD 919–1519

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Itinerant rule, rule exercised through traveling, was a common yet insufficiently researched, premodern form of governance. Studying the determinants of ruler itineraries in the Holy Roman Empire, AD 919–1519, we argue that rulers' visits targeted “marginal” elites.

The former distribution of White‐tailed Eagles in Iberia, the Mediterranean and the Middle East: a case study of the importance of understanding historical distribution in informing current conservation and restoration interventions

Ibis, EarlyView.
The importance of considering historical data in developing conservation and restoration measures for individual species and for wider ecological restoration has been pointed out by recent reviews but often remains neglected in practice. This paper provides a case study illustrating the issue through a review of the former breeding distribution of the ...

Modeling of the geographical distribution of two forest‐forming fucoids in the Strait–Alboran demarcation (southern Iberian Peninsula): Implications for conservation and restoration

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine forests formed by canopy‐forming brown algae of the former Cystoseira complex are key habitat‐forming components of Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, supporting biodiversity and multiple ecosystem functions. However, many populations have declined in recent decades due to increasing anthropogenic pressures and climate change, raising ...

An In-Depth UAS-PPK Georeferencing Analysis at Different Flight Heights for an Urban Area

IEEE Access
Acquiring UAS images in urban environments presents a significant importance for various applications but presents challenges, particularly with flight missions and the reliability of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal.

Evaluation of uncrewed aerial system‐derived vegetation indices for forage trait phenomic prediction in oat–pea intercrop breeding trials

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Accelerating genetic gain in intercrop forage breeding requires scalable phenotyping approaches that can capture both yield and quality variation across complex genotype combinations. This study evaluated the use of uncrewed aerial system (UAS)‐derived multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting forage yield and nutritive quality in ...

flexFitR and exploreHTP: Open‐source software to enable nonlinear modeling of plant growth from remote‐sensing imagery

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract In this study, we introduce two complementary R packages: exploreHTP and flexFitR. exploreHTP is a Shiny‐based graphical interface for extracting plot‐level data from remote‐sensing imagery, while flexFitR provides tools for nonlinear model‐fitting and trait derivation from time series.

Phenomic prediction of wheat yield and grain quality using multispectral, hyperspectral, and thermal imagery

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Grain quality in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum (Desf.) Husn.) remains a major challenge for plant breeders because grain yield and grain protein concentration often show a trade‐off, and both are influenced by grain nitrogen concentration.
