Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2190-2213, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Euromaidan and Ukrainian Subjective Well‐Being

European Journal of Social Psychology, Volume 56, Issue 6, Page 1114-1128, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The 2013–2014 Euromaidan in Ukraine was the largest series of pro‐European protests in history. Peaceful civilian protests were met with state violence, resulting in widespread civil unrest, over 100 deaths, and nearly 2000 injuries. The Russo‐Ukrainian War broke out shortly after. We examined the immediate and long‐term changes in Ukrainians’

Impacts of Nuclear War on Human Health From Changed Surface Ultraviolet Radiation

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Climate model simulations indicate that surface ultraviolet (UV) radiation would change after soot injection into the stratosphere during a nuclear war, due to the competing effects of ozone depletion and aerosol attenuation. Using climate model simulations, we evaluate UV impacts under two scenarios: a regional India‐Pakistan conflict ...
