Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War

open access: yesAnthropology of Consciousness, Volume 37, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the

Conserving Large Old Trees in Guangxi, South China: Diversity, Distribution, and Preservation Strategies

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study comprehensively analyzes the diversity and distribution of over 500 year old large old trees (LOTs) in Guangxi, China, identifying 2630 LOTs from 149 species with a notable latitudinal gradient in richness. Tree vitality was found to be highest in rural and natural habitats like villages and scenic spots, compared to residential areas.

Epidemiological Comparative Study on Contact Sensitisations in Woodworkers With Occupational Dermatitis: Patch Test Data of the Information Network of Departments of Dermatology, 1999 to 2023

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, Volume 94, Issue 2, Page 125-136, February 2026.
The data demonstrates that allergic contact dermatitis is common in WW with OD. The most important allergens include resins (including epoxy resin) and plant‐derived substances (including colophonium). The high share of WW with allergic contact dermatitis and face dermatitis hampers preventive efforts.

Refuges alter elk distribution: a case study of public and private land management strategies

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Wildlife managers have traditionally relied on hunting to manage elk Cervus canadensis population abundance; however, problems with elk over‐abundance and/or distributions have arisen across the western US as private landowners restrict public hunting and refuges are created.

How Does the Proximity to Roads Affect Vegetation Structure, Diversity, and Species Composition? A Global Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesApplied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
Road proximity reshapes plant communities worldwide, increasing non‐native and ruderal species while reducing vegetation structural attributes. Diversity and shifts in floristic composition and vegetation structure show context‐dependent responses, highlighting the importance of landscape context for understanding road impacts and guiding vegetation ...

Bake Sales to Save Nature: Why Wall Street Conservation Survives

open access: yesDevelopment and Change, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 3-26, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Academics have spent decades analysing the harms and failures of market and finance‐led biodiversity policy. Yet, even though ‘selling nature to save it’ looks less like the promised green capitalism and more like a decades‐long bake sale in that its efforts are small, piecemeal and rely on copious amounts of cheap capital, the approach ...

Comparing the Development and Viability of Horseshoe Crab Eggs Laid in Beach and Salt Marsh Habitats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Recent research has found that horseshoe crabs spawn regularly in salt marshes. However, it remained unclear if eggs laid in salt marsh sediments are viable. In this study, we show that eggs laid in salt marsh habitats develop similarly to those laid in beach habitats, suggesting that salt marshes are viable spawning habitats for horseshoe crabs ...
