Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Changes in chemical and microbiological parameters of some varieties of Sicily olives during natural fermentation

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 2006
The changes and features of some olive cultivars during natural fermentation in brine were examined. The cultivars were typical of Sicily: “Nocellara messinese”, “Nocellara etnea”, “Moresca”, “Ogliarola” and “Tonda iblea”.

Dune Evanescence at Flood Stage in Lowland Sand‐Bed Rivers: A 2D Modeling Approach With Dynamic Resistance

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Bedforms in lowland sand‐bed rivers, which contribute substantially to total flow resistance, are known to adapt to changing flow conditions. While the growth of subaqueous dunes with increasing bedload transport and their wash‐out at higher transport stages are well documented in laboratory experiments, their possible evanescence in lowland ...

Evaluating the role of biodiversity enhancement interventions in supporting bat conservation in a temperate forest

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our findings highlight that combining small‐scale canopy interventions with the retention of habitat trees and deadwood can improve habitat conditions for bats. Canopy gap creation represents an effective short‐term intervention to increase bat activity, whereas habitat trees and selective thinning with deadwood retention are likely to provide longer ...

Elevation‐Driven Morphological Variation in Dianthus virgineus L. s.l. in the Southern Apennine: A Functional Perspective

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our study on Dianthus virgineus uses morphology, functional traits, and fluctuating asymmetry to explore elevational phenotypic variation. We found continuous, environmentally‐driven variation, suggesting local adaptation over distinct species. This work offers a framework to help in the interpretation of polymorphic plant complexes and prevent ...

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1957-1973, June 2026.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Host plant richness and abundance drive populations of a super‐generalist xylem‐feeding insect

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 570-579, June 2026.
Philaenus spumarius abundance was assessed across 93 sites and four habitat types (olive groves, vineyards, meadows, and field margins) within eight heterogeneous agricultural landscapes over the year. In spring, nymph abundance was positively associated with herbaceous plant species richness and vegetation cover, highlighting that even super ...

Discrete Isolation and Continuous Area Drive Genetic Divergence Across Mediterranean Islands

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Comparison between islands and equivalent mainland areas to dissect the effect of area, isolation and species traits in determining island genetic endemicity and genetic differentiation. Location The Western Mediterranean region. Time Period Current. Major Taxa Studied Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Papilionoidea).
