Invasive mammals disrupt sea–land nutrient inputs over 169 years on subtropical oceanic islands

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Invasive mammals have severely impacted oceanic islands, reducing or extirpating seabird populations and driving the collapse of nutrient flows with lasting ecosystem effects. We investigated these dynamics on contrasting subtropical oceanic islands in the South Pacific: Rangitāhua, a large island where goats, cats, and rats caused the ...

The thermal responses of barren‐forming urchins: Common patterns and knowledge gaps

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract As climate change accelerates, there is increasing need to understand how species and ecosystems respond to warming. The challenge we face is the huge diversity of responses among species, and their variability across biological, temporal, and spatial scales.

Knowledge gaps and areas for synthesis in experimental studies of context‐dependent predation risk

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract A growing number of experimental studies address whether the anti‐predator trait responses of prey are associated with costs to prey fitness (non‐consumptive effects) or to the fitness of other species (trait‐mediated indirect effects). Because ecologists remain keen to determine when these risk effects matter, there is a need to know how much

Fish Community Composition Revealed by eDNA Metabarcoding in Mangrove‐Associated Lagoons of Negombo and Puttalam, Sri Lanka

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
eDNA metabarcoding revealed distinct fish community composition between Negombo and Puttalam lagoons, with richness broadly comparable to conventional surveys. The approach detected diverse taxa, including cryptic taxa, demonstrating its value as a complementary tool for biodiversity monitoring in Sri Lanka's mangrove‐associated lagoons.

Diet and Prey Selection of Migratory Shorebirds on Virginia Mudflats Revealed by Fecal DNA Metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Fecal DNA metabarcoding revealed species‐specific diets of migratory shorebirds on Virginia mudflats, highlighting mudflats as diverse foraging habitats and uncovering a previously undocumented biofilm pathway in mid‐Atlantic shorebird food webs.
