Columnanidus calitzdorpensis ichnogen. ichnosp. nov: A new Middle Pleistocene subterranean termite trace fossil from South Africa

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 933-949, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Termites are landscape geo‐engineers whose nesting activities substantially modify the physical and chemical properties of soils. Fossilised termite nests commonly constitute the only identifiable evidence of ancient termite activity and represent valuable trace fossil archives for reconstructing past environments.

A simple index for assessing cumulative human impacts on mountain lakes

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Mountain lakes are highly sensitive ecosystems and effective sentinels of environmental change, yet the exposure and magnitude of the human footprint remain poorly quantified. In this study, we develop a simple and non‐invasive abiotic index to assess cumulative pressures on mountain lakes. The proposed index integrates eight variables grouped

Detecting social‐ecological fit in Natura 2000 governance and management: Evidence from LIFE projects focused on forest protected habitat types

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2521-2540, August 2026.
Abstract Protected areas represent complex social‐ecological systems that require governance and management approaches that valorise and enhance positive relationships between people and nature. This study analyses the alignment between social and ecological systems to detect the social‐ecological fit of projects focused on biodiversity conservation ...

Umbilical Cord: A Non‐Invasive DNA Source for Sea Turtle Genomics

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 6, August 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing has revolutionised conservation genomics by enabling genome‐wide information even in non‐model species. However, obtaining non‐invasive samples for genomics remains challenging in species like sea turtles, which spend most of their lives in the open ocean.

Spatial identification of areas suitable for other effective area‐based conservation measures in the European Union

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Although significant biodiversity has been safeguarded by protected areas (PAs), biodiversity trends continue downward. Within the frameworks of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the new EU Restoration Regulation (2024), conserving critical biodiversity areas is essential.

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.
