How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2190-2213, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Using environmental DNA to identify emerging Pacific salmon habitats and support Indigenous governance

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 7, October 2026.
Abstract Northern watersheds are facing rapid hydroclimatic reorganization driven by climate warming, glacier retreat, and intensifying land use. These changes are altering the distribution and accessibility of aquatic habitats, creating both risks and opportunities for cold‐adapted species such as Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.).

Integrative Taxonomy Does Not Support a Cosmopolitan Desmophyllum pertusum: Resurrecting D. californicum and Validating the Genus Desmophyllum

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Reef‐building cold‐water corals are important habitat‐forming species, yet the taxonomy of the widely distributed Desmophyllum pertusum remains uncertain. Using an integrative approach combining nuclear UCEs and exons, mitochondrial genomes, SNP data, and morphology, we show that Pacific populations previously identified as D.

Influence of Irrigation and Topography on Groundwater Recharge in the Canadian Prairies

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 10, October 2026.
Groundwater recharge in the semi‐arid, glaciated terrain of the Canadian prairies is focused under topographic depressions, which receive snowmelt runoff generated over frozen grounds (A). Irrigation increases soil water inputs and induces recharge under uplands (B).

Spatiotemporal Changes and Climate Driving Factors of Compound Precipitation‐Temperature Extreme Events Across Global Land Areas

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 12, October 2026.
During the period 1901–2024, the dominant proportion of compound dry‐warm extremes in annual, June–July–August (JJA), and December–January–February (DJF) occurrences was the highest among the four types of compound precipitation and temperature extremes across global land areas, accounting for 40.1%, 50.3%, and 28.0%, respectively.
