Biogeomorphic Feedbacks Triggered by Mangrove Degradation at the Seaward Margin Accelerate Persistent Vegetation Decline

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Seaward mangrove edge exhibited significant retreat after extreme disturbances. Rhizophora stylosa exhibited impaired regeneration and root damage in heavily disturbed areas, trait variation primarily responded to elevation and sediment properties, vegetation loss triggered subsidence, creating a positive biogeomorphic feedback loop.

Genetic Reference Gaps Limit eDNA Metabarcoding and Biodiversity Monitoring of Tropical Mangrove Ecosystems

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This review reveals major genetic data gaps for Philippine mangrove fauna, especially invertebrates, limiting species‐level eDNA detection. By compiling 48 years of biodiversity records and assessing reference library coverage, it highlights the need for targeted sequencing and shows how integrating eDNA with conventional surveys strengthens monitoring

Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice and the Prevalence of Eye Conditions Among Commercial Fish Smokers in Abuesi, Ghana: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Traditional fish smoking in Abuesi, Ghana, exposes workers, primarily women, to significant health risks due to prolonged smoke inhalation. This study evaluates the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) concerning safe smoking methods.

Time tells: plasticity and developmental asynchrony underlie trait variation in a dune‐building grass

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Habitat‐modifying plants engineer landscapes through plant‐environment feedbacks. The strength of these feedbacks is determined by above‐ and below‐ground traits shaping landscape morphology. Besides interspecific differences, recent findings highlight that intraspecific trait variation, such as shoot density, can also influence landscape morphology ...

Fish loss in tropical coastal ecosystems can jeopardise nutrient supply to traditional fishing communities: A case study from Northeast Brazil

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1248-1260, May 2026.
Abstract Fisheries constitute one of the major benefits that oceans provide for people. Yet anthropogenic pressures and global changes are disrupting coastal systems, eroding marine biodiversity and threatening the food security of traditional populations.

Transition pathways from vulnerability to viability of small‐scale fisheries in Africa and Asia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1033-1049, May 2026.
Abstract This perspective paper examines transition pathways that move small‐scale fisheries from vulnerability towards viability. We understand ‘vulnerability to viability transition pathways’ as integrative and one that extends beyond economic concerns to include social, political, cultural and ecological aspects of small‐scale fisheries.

Blue carbon storage and environmental influences in mangroves, Puerto Rico

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
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 ...
