Comparing Drone and Vessel‐Based Imaging to Quantify Epibiont Coverage on Humpback Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetacean epibionts offer noninvasive insights into host health, physiology, and spatial ecology, yet quantitative assessments in wild populations remain scarce. Although vessel‐based observations may be limited by field of view and analyst input, unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs; drones) are increasingly used to monitor cetacean health indices,

Human‐in‐the‐loop eider duck counting in Arctic Canada with an open‐vocabulary multispecies wildlife detector

AI Magazine, Volume 47, Issue 3, Fall 2026.
Abstract Accurate monitoring of eider duck populations in Arctic Canada is essential for understanding ecosystem health and supporting conservation efforts in a rapidly changing climate. Traditional manual counting from aerial imagery is time‐consuming, labor‐intensive, and prone to observer bias.

Thermal Stress Is Associated With Fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica Meadows

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
By combining a physiological model of cumulative thermal stress with AI‐based seagrass mapping, we show that chronic sublethal warming is associated with fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica meadows and increased regression risk by 2100. ABSTRACT Posidonia oceanica meadows, which underpin Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, are undergoing ...

Effects of a Catastrophic Debris‐Flow on a Coastal Salt Marsh

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Debris‐flows are extreme events that can occur when wildfire is followed by heavy precipitation. Although debris‐flow effects are primarily assessed in montane systems, here, we document the downstream physical and biological impacts of a debris‐flow in a coastal salt marsh.

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1476-1499, September 2026.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.
