The visible and invisible drivers of biocultural loss in the Amazon

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1629-1640, June 2026.
Abstract The Amazon is rapidly approaching an ecological tipping point driven by deforestation, forest degradation and global climate change. These are visible issues that receive increasing political and public attention. However, the accelerating biocultural loss in the Amazon, including the extinction of Indigenous languages, the disruption of ...

Effects of selective harvest on antler size of white‐tailed deer in Texas, USA

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 222, Issue 1, June 2026.
We conducted 20 years of experiments on the selective harvest of white‐tailed deer by antler size, judged inferior, in 2 areas of South Texas, USA. Selective harvest increased the phenotypic antler size of older males in one study area but not the other. There was little evidence of evolution resulting from selective harvesting. Abstract There has been

How vulnerable are amphibians to climate change? A mechanistic perspective

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1550-1560, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Amphibians are frequently identified as highly vulnerable to climate change, yet the mechanisms driving this sensitivity remain uncertain. Approaches that explicitly link physiological mechanisms to environmental variation provide powerful tools for forecasting climate ...

Modelos animales en enfermedades relacionadas con el envejecimiento

open access: yes, 2023
El envejecimiento es una pérdida progresiva de la integridad fisiológica causante de múltiples enfermedades que comparten marcadores moleculares. En esta tesis doctoral se han desarrollado tres proyectos independientes, pero a su vez relacionados con el envejecimiento y las estrategias para combatir las enfermedades derivadas de éste.

When conservation meets contagion: Mapping yellow fever risk to guide vaccination in an endangered primate

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Spatial projections revealed high‐risk areas for YF transmission, highlighting priority zones for targeted vaccination efforts in GLTs. By integrating disease ecology into conservation planning, this study offers a scalable framework for spatially informed interventions aimed at mitigating disease‐driven declines in threatened species.

Ecological Niche Divergence in an Invasive Non‐Native Shrub: Implications for Risk Assessments

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
The worldwide spread invasive shrub Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco) underwent divergent niche shifts across two of its invaded regions. In the mediterranean region it presents high thermal seasonality and low thermal seasonality in the Caatinga (Brazil).

Effects of parachute science on local research capacity 降落伞科学对当地研究能力的影响

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Strengthening research capacity is essential to address the global biodiversity crisis. Yet, parachute science often undermines this goal, and its prevalence, costs, and benefits are unclear. We analyzed 13,502 publications on primate research that we extracted from Scopus (1960–2022) to evaluate the effects of parachute science on local ...
