Land Cover Change Drives River Flow Modifications in Central Chile
This study examines the combined effects of land cover change and ENSO on streamflow dynamics in four coastal catchments of central Chile, using a 45‐year (1979–2023) dataset of remote sensing and hydroclimatic data. Conclusions Native forest loss reduced summer flows and PP–Q relationship; preserved forests enhanced resilience.

We examine energy balance and evapotranspiration dynamics in a shallow peatland as an analogue for projected climate change impacts in deeper peatlands. Across nine growing seasons, we document similar total evapotranspiration between dry and wet years, leading to net moisture deficit in some dry years.

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles
Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...

Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...

Abstract Ecoregions are often defined based on homogeneous biophysical and ecological conditions and are optimal spatial units for designing conservation strategies. However, transboundary ecoregions such as the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest (APAF) experience asymmetrical conservation outcomes, understood here as cross‐border differences, resulting from ...

Blue carbon storage and environmental influences in mangroves, Puerto Rico
Abstract Mangrove ecosystems are important coastal carbon sinks, with soil carbon storage strongly influenced by site‐specific hydrological, sedimentary, and climatic conditions. This study quantified soil carbon stocks in two mangrove systems in Puerto Rico—La Parguera and Laguna Grande—and evaluated the relative influence of hydrology, sediment ...

Glomalin production in Atlantic Forest: Effects of soil properties and plant families
Abstract Glomalin, a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), contributes to soil aggregation, carbon sequestration, and nutrient cycling. We present the first comprehensive assessment of environmental factors associated with glomalin availability, measured as easily extractable (easily extractable glomalin‐related soil protein [EE ...
