Anthropogenic disturbance and trophic interactions mediate population viability of American martens

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
We present a simulation model of the probability of collapse to <10% of carrying capacity for American marten populations over a 50‐year time frame in relation to forest disturbance due to commercial harvesting and fur‐trapping levels. Probability of collapse differed between models that assumed no effect of logging (solid line), martens living in a ...

Species identity and spatial scale drive context‑dependent tree diversity effects in a Finnish forest experiment

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.

How can ecosystem services scenarios inform forest planning?—Seven lessons from Leanachan Forest, Scotland

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1233-1247, May 2026.
Abstract There are growing societal expectations that forests are managed for multiple benefits including carbon storage, biodiversity, health and recreation. Consequently, forest managers are increasingly expected to consider how external factors, including climate change, affect the future of their forests and the wider public benefits they provide ...

Ecosystem‐Scale Methane Emissions From Peatlands of the Hudson Bay Lowlands

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Northern peatlands are important sources of methane (CH4) in the atmosphere. However, the magnitude of CH4 emissions and their response to environmental factors are poorly constrained within the Hudson Bay Lowlands (HBL), the largest contiguous peatland complex in North America. This study investigated seasonal (April–November) eddy covariance‐

Denoising framework for X‐ray absorption spectroscopy data

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 658-682, May 2026.
We introduce a high‐performance Python‐based XAS denoising package called XASDenoise, which implements our newly developed stationarity warping method and advanced denoising techniques based on Gaussian process regression and a convolutional autoencoder.X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful tool for probing the structural and electronic ...

F K‐edge XAS as a tool to examine F environments in complex inorganic systems

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 715-724, May 2026.
Experimental and computational F K‐edge X‐ray absorption spectra of a range of complex inorganic materials are presented and analysed, with discussion as to what information on F speciation and environment can be obtained from the spectra. Observations and recommendations are made that will assist future research in the collection and analysis of high ...

New opportunities for grassland species in warming temperate winters

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1138-1150, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Temperate winters are getting warmer, the length of the growing season is increasing and mid‐winter fluctuations of warm and freezing temperatures are more frequent. Although typically winter dormant, some herbaceous perennials can maintain or grow green leaves during ...

Detection of Heat and Drought Effects on the Photosynthetic Activity Using Solar‐Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence and a Photochemical Reflectance Index in a Cool‐Temperate Larch Forest in Japan

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.
Solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) and gross primary productivity decline at midday during a short heatwave in a tower site of a larch forest. High atmospheric vapor pressure deficit significantly reduced the photochemical reflectance index (PRI), light‐use efficiency (LUE), and canopy fluorescence emission efficiency (εF).

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.

Pedodiversity‐Based Covariates for Digital Soil Mapping Framework

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT The integration of soil diversity as a covariate in digital soil mapping framework remains largely unexploited. However, we believe that it may carry important information that can be used to create more accurate digital maps of soil properties.
