Taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia (Acanthaceae) in India

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
A taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia in India was undertaken through extensive field surveys and critical examination of herbarium specimens. Three taxa, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina subsp. marina, and Avicennia officinalis, are described in detail. A synonymic list was compiled using the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP)

The impact of tropical forests on local climate: Comparing recent research with conservation practitioner information priorities

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2828-2846, August 2026.
Abstract The local‐scale climate impacts of tropical forests (LCIF), such as reducing temperatures and increasing rainfall, are directly relevant to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Strengthening understanding of these local climate benefits can encourage actions to conserve natural forests, with positive implications for climate resilience ...

A revised delimitation of Dorstenia and allied genera (Moraceae), supported by phylogenomics and morphology

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Recent phylogenetic studies have called into question the present broad circumscription of Dorstenia (Moraceae), a genus of shrubs and herbs found largely in Africa and the Neotropics. This study presents an updated phylogenomic analysis of Dorstenia and allied genera, reviews the morphology of these taxa, and proposes a revised delimitation ...

Implementation of the Deep Blue Aerosol Algorithm on Geostationary Satellite Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Deep Blue (DB) aerosol project aims to produce consistent, long‐term climate data records of atmospheric aerosol properties using satellite observations. The DB algorithm has been extensively applied to low Earth orbit (LEO) sensors, including the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer and

Event Deposits Recorded Over the Past 800 kyr in IODP Hole U1433A (South China Sea): Implications of a Revised Methodology for Chronology and Paleoclimate Reconstruction

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Instantaneous event deposits such as turbidites, debrites, and slumps are common and frequently occur in marginal seas. These instantaneous deposits represent seconds to days in duration, and can therefore significantly impact age‐depth models and interpretation of paleoclimate history based on thick sedimentary sequences recovered in deep ...

Habitat connectivity shapes biodiversity outcomes in Indonesia's community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our findings suggest that community‐managed forests established within predominantly forested areas can make a meaningful contribution to area‐based conservation, including recognition as Other Effective Area‐based Conservation Measures (OECMs). In community‐managed forests established in more modified production landscapes, targeted restoration and ...

Between famine and freedom: Food prices during the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945–9

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 3, Page 1082-1107, August 2026.
Abstract This paper investigates how the Indonesian War of Independence (1945‒9) influenced staple food prices, and how fluctuations in those prices, in turn, shaped the trajectory and dynamics of the conflict. We compiled a dataset comprising more than 8600 prices for staple foods covering the entire Indonesian archipelago from 1939‒49, allowing us to

Escalating Fire‐Driven Forest Loss in Protected Tropical Forests

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
More than 4 million hectares of protected tropical forest have been lost to stand‐replacing fire since 2001, with annual losses increasing through time in both the Americas and Africa. Protection most commonly reduced the proportion of stand‐replacing fire, but could not decouple temporal fire trends inside PAs from those outside.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.
