Characterising Vento Norte Downslope Windstorms and Their Thermal Impacts in Southern Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using 20 years of hourly INMET observations in Santa Maria (southern Brazil), we identify 189 Vento Norte (VNOR) downslope windstorms, ~72% in winter, marked by abrupt warming, drying and strong northerly gusts. Across five biometeorological indices (TEFW, TDI, THI, HDI, Humidex), VNOR hours consistently show significantly higher thermal discomfort ...

Mapping wild bee diversity and flower use for an effective conservation of the Doñana biodiversity hotspot

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We compiled the first checklist of wild bees in Doñana Protected Area, documenting 385 species, including three vulnerable and one endangered species listed in the Red List. Bee species exhibit diverse floral preferences, highlighting the need to incorporate plant–pollinator interactions and the role of plants in conservation and management strategies ...

Comprehensive Analysis for the Evaluation of Torrential Floods and Slope Stability of River Channels: La China River Area (Colombia)

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 2053-2076, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Spatial Heterogeneity in Heat‐Related Mortality in the Valencian Region: Implications for Climate Adaptation Beyond Administrative Boundaries

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The intensification of extreme heat events in the Mediterranean basin poses growing threats to public health, particularly in climate‐vulnerable regions like the Valencian Region (eastern Spain). Despite the implementation of provincial and municipal heat prevention plans, their efficacy remains unevaluated, and most studies have focused on ...

Climatic niche position predicts population dynamics in Mediterranean shrubs after drought

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climatic conditions closer to the species' climatic niche centroid generally resulted in higher population growth in two Mediterranean shrubs, but demographic responses differed between species and were further influenced by drought‐induced vegetation die‐off.

Hyperspectral wavelength selection for weed discrimination in Eucalyptus saligna using machine learning

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Efficient weed management in commercial forestry requires reliable methods for distinguishing crop seedlings from competing vegetation during early plantation establishment. This study aimed to identify spectral wavelength ranges suitable for discriminating weeds from Eucalyptus saligna in young forest plantations.

Critical Status of the Endangered Limpet Patella candei in the Canary Islands: Historical Population Trend and Environmental Stressors

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Macaronesian endemic limpet Patella candei, also known as the ‘majorera limpet’, is an endangered species with a restricted distribution limited to Fuerteventura (Canary Islands) and the Selvagens Islands (Madeira). This study assessed its current distribution and conservation status in Fuerteventura through field surveys conducted in 2022,

A Harmonized Landsat–Sentinel‐2 Burned‐Area Product for the Pantanal (2014–2024), Based on Multitemporal Composites

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
This work presents AQM‐HLS, a harmonized burned‐area dataset for the Pantanal covering 2014–2024. Landsat‐8/9 and Sentinel‐2 imagery were integrated into multitemporal NBR composites and classified using Random Forest. The dataset captures fire‐scar dynamics, delivering accurate 30‐m burned‐area maps suitable for long‐term monitoring and environmental ...
