Multifactorial diagnosis of drought‐induced decline in Mediterranean conifer forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.
A multi‐proxy approach integrating radial growth, leaf morphology, stable isotopes, elemental composition and soil properties revealed interacting mechanisms underlying drought‐induced dieback in Mediterranean pine populations. Declining trees showed stronger drought impacts on growth, altered stomatal regulation, nutrient imbalances and accelerated ...

Mining Impacts on a Threatened and Burnt Swamp Ecosystem: Responses of the Microbial Soil Community

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
The evaluation of microbial communities and soil chemistry of three mined and three unmined swamps in the burnt southeastern Australia suggested that mining activities led to changes in the microbial community structure and functionality. This figure incorporates symbols sourced from BioRender and was created with BioRender.com.

Local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation in a subsistence agriculture community of Mustang, Nepal

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Household surveys in Kunjo, Mustang district examined local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation, crop damage, and human‐bear interactions. Crop damage was greater near forest edges, while more than half of households have negative attitude towards bear conservation. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating local perceptions and

Persistence without prosperity at the upper range margin: Elevation, microhabitat buffering and biotic pressure in a range‐expanding spider

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 926-943, October 2026.
Anthropogenic linear features facilitate high‐elevation colonization. Parasitoid pressure declines markedly with elevation. Cocoon damage increases despite reduced parasitism at high elevation. Abstract The upper elevational range limits of thermophilic arthropods reflect constraints on population persistence rather than simple presence.

Machine‐Learning Models Trained on Genomic Summary Statistics Assess Extinction Risk and Recovery Potential of Bottlenecked Populations

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Forecasting extinction risk from genomic data is challenging because of interactions among environment, demography, and genomic erosion. Here, we use known outcomes from forward simulations as a proof‐of‐concept study to test whether machine‐learning (ML) models can discriminate relative extinction risk and recovery potential from genomic ...

Predicting Nepheline Formation in Nuclear Waste Glasses Using Machine Learning With Uncertainty Quantification

International Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 17, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The vitrification of high‐level waste (HLW) into borosilicate glass is a cornerstone of nuclear waste management, yet one of the key challenges in glass formulation for high‐aluminum‐containing waste streams is the precipitation of nepheline during the canister cooling stage.

Impact of Storage Temperature and Duration on Dimensional Stability and Mechanical Properties of 3D‐Printed Implant Surgical Guides

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, Volume 38, Issue 10, Page 1969-1978, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the impact of storage temperature and duration on the dimensional stability and mechanical properties of 3D‐printed surgical guides. Materials and Methods Sixty surgical guides were designed using two software programs (3Shape and SMOP) and printed with NextDent SG resin.

Relaxin‐2: Shaping the Proteomic Landscape of Skeletal Muscle Physiology, Glucose Trafficking, and Mitochondrial Function in Rat

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
Cardioprotective hormone relaxin‐2 showed relevant effects on rat skeletal muscle by altering proteins linked to muscle function, regeneration, differentiation, mitochondrial function, glucose metabolism, and structural integrity and organization. Specifically, relaxin‐2 reduced the expression of 95 proteins, increased 32, and elicited unique proteins ...
