Ungulate responses to the addition of silicate rock powder in acidified oak (Quercus robur) forests at the Veluwe, the Netherlands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Addition of silicate rock powder (SRP) is an increasingly used measure to restore vegetation and fauna on acidified mineral‐poor soils in protected areas. In theory, however, the positive effects of SRP addition on vegetation may be offset by grazing and browsing ungulates attracted to higher‐quality forage.

Microbial mats and thalassinid shrimp: Spatial and geochemical interactions in a modern intertidal environment

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.

Comparison of drone and ground surveys for the detection of a rare plant in a fragile ecosystem

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
We compared the accuracy, time, and financial costs of drone and ground surveys for the detection of wood lilies (Lilium philadelphicum) in an endangered alvar ecosystem. We found that the drone surveys detected 73%–78% of the plants found in the ground surveys, but that this type of survey was more expensive and time consuming than the ground survey ...

The Secret Life of Tidal Marshes and Mangroves: Camera Trapping as a Window Into Wildlife Using North American Coastal Wetlands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We conducted the first coordinated assessment of terrestrial wildlife across North America's vegetated coastal wetlands. Our study demonstrates the significant role coastal wetlands play in wildlife support, offers a model for broad‐scale wildlife studies, and highlights the importance of incorporating top‐down perspectives and a landscape approach ...

Influence of Fluvial Structure on Benthic Macroinvertebrates in a Restored Meandering River, Geul Basin, Netherlands

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Benthic macroinvertebrates are indicators of water quality and riparian ecosystem health. Their abundance and distribution in streams are associated with river basin environmental factors, including stream biotic and abiotic fluvial processes. We examined benthic macroinvertebrate diversity and abundance in relation to large wood (LW) and pool‐
