People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 650-665, March 2026.Abstract The cultural ecosystem services (CES) framework allows to systematically analyse non‐material human–nature relationships and can help to increase the recognition and scope of various intangible place‐based values. Although the amount of scientific literature addressing CES has increased over the last few decades, studies largely focus only on ...

Groundwater Temperature Processes and Patterns: Implications for Stream Thermal Regimes
WIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Shallow groundwater temperatures are controlled by ground surface temperatures and are influenced by climate change and land cover changes. Deeper groundwater temperature is constant year‐round, making it cooler (warmer) in the summer (winter) than surface water, and exhibits a lagged response to surface warming.

On Utilizing Spatial Gradients to Discover Functional Relationships in Hydrology
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract The search for functional relationships is at the heart of any science, but has proven notoriously difficult in hydrology. Here, we define functional relationships as relationships between two or more variables that characterize the functions of hydrological systems.

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.Host‐tree identity, particularly bark physico‐chemical traits, emerged as the dominant driver of epiphytic lichen and bryophyte community composition in this closed‐canopy temperate forest system, while microclimate plays a subordinate role. Spatial structure and proximity contributed additional effects for both groups, but for lichens, habitat ...

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 441-451, March 2026.Cave environments filter plant traits, selecting thinner, smaller leaves with reduced photosynthetic and vascular structures. Abstract Caves present unique ecological conditions that influence the distribution and adaptation of species, yet studies on cave‐associated vegetation remain limited.
