Climate and Volcanic Activity Modulate Area–Distance Effects on Plant Diversity Along the Temperate–Subarctic Island Volcanic Arc

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims To evaluate how equilibrium (ETIB) and niche‐based (NTIB) island‐biogeography frameworks jointly explain taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity in a temperate–subarctic, volcanically active archipelago. Location Kuril Islands, northwestern Pacific (44°–50° N). Time Period Present. Taxon Vascular plants.

Characterization of salmon‐foraging harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) in the Erimo region, Hokkaido, Japan, using finite mixture models

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
Finite mixture models revealed that older, larger harbor seals specialize in salmon predation at setnets in Hokkaido, Japan, suggesting targeted management strategies focusing on these specialist individuals could effectively reduce fishery conflicts while protecting the broader seal population.

Remote Forcing of Super Typhoon Mawar on the 2023 Quebec Wildfires

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Typhoons and wildfires are major global climate and environmental hazards, yet their potential interactions remain poorly understood, particularly through remote atmospheric forcing. Taking the 2023 Quebec wildfires as an example, we investigate how a tropical cyclone can influence wildfire‐favorable conditions.
