Towards Right Answer for the Right Reasons in Global Land Carbon Sink Estimates

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
We review the main approaches used to estimate the global land carbon sink. Using evidence from FLUXNET, we show that improving these estimates requires not only matching the total land carbon sink, but also correctly capturing the links among carbon uptake, respiration, and water loss.

Species characteristics predict the effectiveness of avian survey methods in an Afromontane sky‐island

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 520-540, April 2026.
Biodiversity conservation requires effective monitoring of ecological communities in remote locations, where limited accessibility often restricts survey efforts. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is becoming an established method for measuring biodiversity, facilitated by the increased accessibility of autonomous recording units.

The Noble Chafer and traditional orchards: Evaluating the role of indicator species in the conservation of cultural landscapes

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 695-705, March 2026.
Abstract England's traditional orchards are important habitats for a range of invertebrate species, providing biodiverse habitat for many species not found in other landscapes. Increased loss of these once common landscape features, exacerbated by changing land use, anthropogenic habitat fragmentation, and the loss of traditional or customary practices,

Effects of habitat quality and fine‐scale spatial structure on epiphytic lichen and bryophyte communities

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
Host‐tree identity, particularly bark physico‐chemical traits, emerged as the dominant driver of epiphytic lichen and bryophyte community composition in this closed‐canopy temperate forest system, while microclimate plays a subordinate role. Spatial structure and proximity contributed additional effects for both groups, but for lichens, habitat ...

The population structure of the lichen Lobaria pulmonaria in the middle boreal forests depends on the time-since-disturbance [PDF]

, 2017
The population structure of the lichen Lobaria pulmonaria (L.) Hoffm. was analyzed in the Vodlozersky National Park (Karelia, Russia), for middle boreal forest stands having a time-since-disturbance spanning 80 to 450 years.

Factors determining the occurrence of Flat Bugs (Aradidae) in beech dominated forests [PDF]

, 2007
The habitat requirements of most Aradidae and the decisive factors that influence their occurrence are still poorly understood. To reduce this lack of knowledge a standardised survey of Aradidae in two large beech forest areas of Bavaria (northern ...
