Structure of the Wetland‐Dependent Bird Assemblages in the Pequenos Lençóis Maranhenses, in Maranhão, Brazil

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Wetland‐dependent birds play crucial ecological roles and are highly influenced by local environmental factors such as depth, salinity and microhabitat availability. Although the importance of these environments for biodiversity is already recognized, studies on the spatiotemporal dynamics of these assemblages in Maranhão remain scarce.

Spatial ecology and habitat selection of translocated European bison in the Romanian Carpathians

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Large herbivores play a critical role in maintaining ecosystem structure and function, yet their decline has disrupted ecological processes across much of the world. Species reintroductions aim to restore these dynamics, but how animals adapt to novel environments remains a key knowledge gap. European bison (Bison bonasus) are keystone species

Genome‐wide associations of leaf spectral variation in MAGIC lines of Nicotiana attenuata

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The application of in‐field and aerial spectroscopy to assess functional and phylogenetic variation in plants has led to novel ecological insights and supports global assessments of plant biodiversity. Understanding how plant genetic variation influences reflectance spectra will help harness this potential for biodiversity monitoring and ...

Spatio‐Temporal Modeling of Land‐Use/Land‐Cover Change and Land Surface Temperature Using SVM and CA–Markov in Dilla Town, Ethiopia

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
Multi‐temporal Landsat imagery (2001, 2011, 2021) was used to map land use/land cover and retrieve land surface temperature, quantify change, and model future scenarios. Results indicate rapid expansion of built‐up land accompanied by declining mixed forest and cropland and increasing thermal hotspots.

Evaluation of the Surface Water Distribution in North-Central Namibia Based on MODIS and AMSR Series [PDF]

, 2014
Semi-arid North-central Namibia has high potential for rice cultivation because large seasonal wetlands (oshana) form during the rainy season. Evaluating the distribution of surface water would reveal the area potentially suitable for rice cultivation ...

Mechanisms of Surface Meltwater Ponding and Drainage on the Greenland Ice Sheet Revealed Using SkySat Imagery and Deep Learning

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Surface meltwater impacts Greenland Ice Sheet mass balance indirectly by reducing albedo and promoting hydrofracture. However, fully understanding both processes requires accurate mapping of small‐scale features such as ponds, channels, and moulins that govern meltwater formation and drainage. Here we investigate surface water dynamics at high
