Climate and Spatially Heterogeneous Abiotic Site Constraints Shape Temperate Tree Species Abundance at Northern Range Limits

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Northern populations of temperate tree species evolve under climatic, topographic and edaphic conditions that approach the limits of their ecological tolerance. However, the environmental constraints acting on species abundance are not spatially uniform, and their relative importance can shift markedly from core to northern populations. We

Detecting extirpation: A localized approach to a global problem

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1160-1174, July 2026.
The global biodiversity crisis stems from a cascading series of extirpations driving species toward extinction. Addressing this crisis requires methods for early detection of extinction at local scales, where communities can mobilize conservation efforts.

Monitoring African Megafauna in an Anthropogenic Landscape: A 15‐Year Case Study of the Vulnerable West African Giraffe

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 235-248, June 2026.
We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Niche Dynamics Under Current and Future Climates of South African Plants in France

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim While climatic niche dynamics of invasive plants have been increasingly studied worldwide, comparative assessments disentangling niche conservatism from expansion into analogue and non‐analogue climates remain very limited in France. Here, the climatic niche dynamics of four South African plant species established in France were quantified,

The role of vegetation science in the conservation of cultural landscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Cultural landscapes are defined as the results of the combined action of nature and humans on the territory. Millennia of human presence on most of the Earth resulted in the current existence of many different cultural landscapes, shaped by different ...

Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 507-531, June 2026.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...

Tree communities face rising soil water deficits exposure under projected climate change in northern temperate forests

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Soil water deficits in temperate forests are projected to become more frequent, more severe, and longer in duration. This study aims to quantify the current (1981–2010) and projected (2041–2070) exposure of 17 tree communities to soil water deficit (severity and duration) in southwestern Quebec, Canada, using the Canadian Land Surface Scheme ...

Contrasted habitat selection among Eurasian curlew populations according to landscape heterogeneity and breeding stage

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
This study aimed to quantify the spatio‐temporal use of breeding environments by the Eurasian curlew in 5 contrasting agricultural landscapes. To this end, 64 individuals were tagged with GPS devices to assess their space use according to their breeding stages and define their foraging habitat selection.

Tracking the Dynamics of human Colonisation and Adaptation in Central Vanuatu: Preliminary Results From Excavation and Survey at Pangpang, East Efate

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 221-236, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In October 2022 an extensive archaeological landscape was identified by staff of the Vanuatu Cultural Centre at Pangpang on the east coast of Efate Island in central Vanuatu. It included midden deposits on the banks of the Pangpang River near the sea at Forari Bay where Lapita and Early Erueti‐style pottery sherds were recovered.
