Spatial differentiation characteristics and controlling factors of the epikarst thickness in Southwest China

Geoderma
The epikarst, a critical link between surface and subsurface in karst regions, plays a vital role in regulating groundwater cycle, sustaining biogeochemical cycles, and securing water resources.

Evaluating use of extant species response to invasive predator control as an indicator of functional eradication to support species reintroductions

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
The removal of brown treesnakes resulted in an increase in the number of lizards already present that were counted in a treated area. We used this increase as a trigger to reintroduce three lizard species no longer present in the area, likely due to predation by the snake. Two out of those three species were found to have established. Abstract Invasive

Intra‐annual transfer of hydrogen and oxygen isotopic signals from water and sugar precursors to tree rings: Processes and mechanisms

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1143-1160, August 2026.
Intra‐annual radial growth of beech and spruce in 2021 and 2022. Summary The oxygen (δ18O) and hydrogen (δ2H) isotope compositions of leaf and xylem water shape tree‐ring isotope baselines, while the fraction of sugars undergoing isotopic modification downstream of leaves (fO, fH) determines the dominant hydrologic signal.

Temperate tree species show cross‐tolerance to heat, drought, and late spring‐frost stress

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1625-1630, August 2026.
Significant cross‐tolerance of leaf traits to heat, drought and late spring‐frost were found. (a) Turgor loss point vs lethal spring‐frost temperature. (b) Heat thermal threshold temperature vs lethal spring‐frost temperature. (c) Heat thermal threshold temperature vs turgor loss point.

A Global Review of Microplastic Contamination in Groundwater: Empirical Evidence and Latin American Perspectives

Water and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 357-366, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of microplastics (MPs) in groundwater has emerged as a significant concern due to their environmental impact and the threat they pose to vital water resources, groundwater being one of the most important freshwater sources in the world.

Surface Energy Partitioning Biases in Major Reanalyses Revealed by Soil Moisture Drying Dynamics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Identifying the flux partition regimes between soil moisture (SM) and evaporative fraction (EF, ratio of evapotranspiration to available energy) is important for understanding the hydrometeorological processes as well as the development of Land Surface Models (LSMs).

[War consequences as the potential hazard for the Croatian karst ecosystem].

Arhiv za higijenu rada i toksikologiju, 2007
In the recent war in Croatia, the karstic area of the country was endangered by hazardous waste, which calls for particular attention because of its exceptional ecological sensitivity. There are strong indications that various organic pollutants have entered the environment.
