open access: yesFuture Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Although we live in the Anthropocene—the geological age of humankind, wherein humans have measurably impacted the biosphere—we struggle to narrate the Anthropocene. In particular, we struggle to give narrative shape to its foremost feature: anthropogenic climate change.

Indirect effects of fast‐growing urban development on wildlife in a coastal protected area of Costa Rica

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 246-259, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

Applying the Ecological Trap Concept to Cetaceans

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Wild animals may select poor‐quality habitats due to mismatches between perceived and actual habitat quality, creating ecological traps. Although well explored in terrestrial systems, this concept remains underutilized for marine species.

Seasonal and Interannual Variation of Common Dolphin, Delphinus delphis, Density in Portuguese Waters

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Modeling a species' ecology and abundance provides important insights into its habitat preferences, population trends, and distribution. Here, we studied how environmental factors relate to common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) density in waters off mainland Portugal.

Integrating Molt Migration Into Physiological Assessments of Inter‐Population Stress in a Globally Endangered Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Feather corticosterone (fCORT) provides a powerful indicator of population‐level physiological responses to human disturbance, yet its interpretation is complicated by variation across taxa, habitats, and molt‐movement strategies. Using stable isotope analyses to account for molt migrants in the globally endangered Scaly‐sided Merganser (Mergus ...
