Unveiling Protist Composition and Diversity Patterns With eDNA Metabarcoding: Comparing Short‐ and Long‐Read Approaches

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is widely used for biodiversity monitoring, but short‐read sequencing limits detailed taxonomic identification, especially for protists. In a comparison of short‐ and long‐read approaches in the Belgian North Sea, long‐read metabarcoding provided deeper taxonomic assignment under the applied workflows and improved

410 ka weak monsoon event recorded by stalagmites in Jinfo Cave of Chongqing

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
The freshwater discharge from melting ice sheets in the deglaciation or glaciation is prone to anomalies in ocean−atmosphere transport between different latitudes, which can lead to a series of abrupt millennial-scale climate events, either obvious or ...

Seasonal Dietary Changes Drive Adaptive Responses in the Gut Microbiota and Function of Myotis chinensis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This research clarifies the synergistic adaptive interactions between seasonal foraging strategies and gut microbiome composition in Chinese chiropterans. Microbial diversity and community structure exhibit seasonal fluctuations, with functional metabolic pathways aligning to host reproductive cycles and hibernation physiology, thereby substantiating ...

Dynamics of Vegetation and Soil in Long‐Term Artificial Sand Control Projects in the Ulan Buh Desert

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study investigates the long‐term synergistic evolution of vegetation and soil in artificial sand‐control projects (using straw checkerboard barriers) in China's Ulan Buh Desert. By analyzing areas with different restoration times (0–15 years), it identifies ~10 years as a critical inflection point where plant communities mature into stable, near ...

A Marine Karst Ecosystem in Need of Some Love

open access: yesJournal of Cave and Karst Studies
Here we describe a shallow-water karst ecosystem observed along the coast of Taiwan’s Orchid Island, consisting of extensive networks of caves, canyons, and pools. Measurements at various locations in two pools revealed marked gradients in nutrients, temperature, and salinity, indicative of submarine, relatively nutrient-rich, and terrestrially-derived

Water Oxygen Isotope Thermometer in Headwaters: Indicating Groundwater Recharge and Peatland Water Dependence on Air Temperature

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Stable isotopes in water act as natural tracers of precipitation temperature. In mountainous environments, the oxygen isotopic signature measured in stream water reflects air temperature during precipitation events. Oxygen‐isotope‐derived temperatures are closely linked to recharge processes, particularly in peatlands, as well as in groundwater systems.
