Montane rainforest dynamics under changes in climate and human impact during the past millennia in northern Madagascar

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Although it is well known that humans substantially altered the Malagasy ecosystems, the timing of the human arrival as well as the extension of their environmental impact is yet not well understood.

Functional Diversity Shifts Across the Ediacaran Period Suggest Multiple Drivers for the Rise of Complex Animals

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The Ediacaran Period (~635–538.5 Ma) records the initial rise and diversification of animals. While many studies have examined the evolving structure of these early animal communities, far fewer have examined evolving function. Here, we quantify change in functional diversity (i.e., the distribution of ecological traits within assemblages)

Quaternary palaeoecology and ecological theory

open access: yes, 2021
A review showing the potential contribution of Quaternary palaeoecology to the ecological theory, focused on the ecosystem evolutionary processes, is presented. By analyzing oceanic and continental Pleistocene and Holocene records, some reflections about

Endocranial anatomy of the earliest Cretaceous European neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis provides new evidence for the ecological evolution of Pholidosauridae

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 787-802, October 2026.
We present new insights into the internal cranial anatomy of the neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis, based on CT‐scan data of material from the lowermost Cretaceous Purbeck Limestone Group, southern UK. From the study of the endocast, we obtained new information on the phylogeny and the ecological evolution of the Family ...

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 924-949, October 2026.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Exploring the significance of Kenya's indigenous and emerging blue foods for sustainable aquaculture development. A review

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Kenya's aquaculture sector is at a pivotal stage, transitioning from a historical reliance on Nile tilapia and African catfish toward a more diversified production portfolio that integrates indigenous and emerging freshwater and marine species. This shift is increasingly recognized as essential to enhance climate resilience, food security, and

Ecology and Palaeoecology: Two Approaches, One Objective

open access: yes, 2010
5 p.[EN] Despite what their names might suggest, ecology and palaeoecology have progressed historically as well separated disciplines. This unfortunate disjunction is analyzed here from a theoretical point of view.

Biostratigraphic characterization and Quaternary microfossil palaeoecology in sediment drifts west of the Antarctic Peninsula - Implications for cyclic glacial-interglacial deposition

open access: yes, 2003
The SEDANO Project recovered 19 gravity cores on sediment drifts from the Pacific continental margin of the Antarctic Peninsula [Camerlenghi et al. (1997a) High-resolution terrigenous sedimentary record of the sediment drifts on the Antarctic Peninsula ...
