Areas of high risk for mammalian biodiversity and nature's contributions to people under global warming

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2026.
Climate change has reached unprecedented levels, causing frequent extreme events like droughts and fires. These changes are driving a sharp rise in extinction risk for mammals and threatening key Nature's Contributions to People (NCP) such as clean water, air quality, and climate regulation.

The potential for academic and research institutions to support the Kunming‐Montréal global biodiversity framework

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The implementation of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF) of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) emphasizes a “whole‐of‐government and whole‐of‐society” approach to achieving ambitious goals and targets to conserve and sustainably use biodiversity.

A Large Floodplain River in Transition: Declining Native Fish Abundance Amidst Rise of Nonnative Fishes

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Major declines in native biodiversity are occurring globally. Although these patterns are well‐documented in marine and terrestrial ecosystems, large river studies are uncommon, regularly focus on a few freshwater species and often rely on inconsistent methods. By sampling the full fish assemblage in a large river, we evaluated whether (1)

One Soil, One Planet, No Treaty

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 6, November–December 2026.
ABSTRACT We have always known that soil varies. We have spent two centuries classifying that variation: by horizon, type, capability and jurisdiction. What we have been slower to recognise is that beneath the diversity lies a single system: one continuous pedosphere whose processes move across every boundary we have drawn around it.
