Mapping landforms of a hilly landscape using machine learning and high-resolution LiDAR topographic data

Applied Computing and Geosciences
Landform maps are important tools in assessment of soil- and eco-hydrogeomorphic processes and hazards, hydrological modeling, and natural resources and land management.

Reservoir Regulation has Brought a Classic River‐Dominated Delta Under Human Control

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Damming of wild rivers has trapped vast quantities of sediment that would otherwise nourish deltas, causing severe sediment deficits and accelerating delta erosion worldwide. The Yellow River Delta (YRD), once prograding seaward at ∼10 km2/yr, began retreating at −5.6 km2/yr following completion of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir.

Habitat‐Based Predictions of Bridle Shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) in the Northeastern United States

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We developed local and regional models for Maine and New Hampshire that may be used to focus bridle shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) surveys on areas with high predicted habitat suitability. This is significant because bridle shiners receive protection or concern status in thirteen states and two Canadian provinces: Limited data show that bridle shiners ...

Mowing Modulates the Biotic Filter of Expansive Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Management type and expansive species influence plant community diversity in complex ways. Overall increase of expansive species cover acts as biotic filter in reducing the alpha and beta taxonomic and phylogenetical diversity. However, the filtering effect is modulated by management type, being more intense under mown grasslands.

Distribution Pattern, Ecological Determinants and Conservation Gaps of Model‐Predicted Relative Probability of Occurrence Zones for the Tufted Deer (Elaphodus cephalophus) in China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study analyzed the habitat suitability of the tufted deer, a rare and endemic ungulate in China, using the MaxEnt model and found that suitable habitats are mainly concentrated in Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan provinces. However, the majority of these areas are not covered by existing protected areas, highlighting the urgent need to expand ...

Variational Characteristics of Vegetation Recovery Period Under Extreme Drought Across Various Land Cover Types in Guizhou Province, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Assessing characteristics of drought over the last 20 years in Guizhou Province, China. Unraveling the dynamics of vegetation recovery period across various land cover types. Drought duration and severity determine vegetation recovery period. ABSTRACT Drought, a recurring climatic challenge characterized by water scarcity, significantly affects the ...

Impact of Climate Change and Human Activities on Suitable Distribution of Rhodiola Species in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau: Modeling Insights for Conservation Prioritization

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Using the MaxEnt model with climatic, topographical, soil, and human activity factors, this study predicted suitable habitats for eight Rhodiola species in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP) and analyzed conservation gaps via ArcGIS overlay analysis. ABSTRACT Using the MaxEnt model with climatic, topographical, soil, and human activity factors, this study

Synchronous and Asynchronous Variation of Taxonomic and Phylogenetic Diversity During the Succession of Pinus kesiya var. langbianensis Forest in Yunnan, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Based on community data and the space‐for‐time‐substitution (SFTS) approach, this study shows that both taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity follow a cosine pattern during succession, with PD peaking earlier than TD. Community stability increases as niche differentiation strengthens, with competitive exclusion dominating early and late stages, and ...
