estar: An R package to measure ecological stability

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1090-1100, April 2026.
Abstract Assessing ecological stability is a key task in biodiversity monitoring and conservation. Quantifying stability is not trivial because its different aspects can be measured with various properties. However, to date, no software enables measuring different stability properties on ecological time‐series data.

Living Near the Surface: Dive Behavior of Sei Whales (Balaenoptera borealis) in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the diving behavior of baleen whales in tropical breeding areas is essential for evaluating both ecological functions and anthropogenic threats. In this study, we combined satellite transmitters and generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs) to investigate the dive behavior of sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) in Santos Basin (SB)

A Novel Sampling Protocol for Fruit‐Feeding Butterflies in Grasslands and Open Habitats

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study proposed a novel sampling protocol for fruit‐feeding butterflies in grasslands and open areas in the subtropical region. The new method involves the use of Van Someren‐Rydon bait traps placed on specific supports closer to the ground, aiming to capture the true diversity of butterflies in these habitats.
