Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2379-2391, August 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Paleontological data provide information on natural environments prior to human influence, which are useful for tracking changes in ecosystem functioning through time. During the Late Pleistocene, about 10% of terrestrial mammalian species were extinct in South America.

Can we trust vegetation resurveys?
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.Despite limitations, single resurveys remain a useful tool for describing and understanding changes in plant diversity, at least in perennial grasslands. However, they should be used cautiously, especially regarding changes in species richness. In general, trend inference becomes more accurate as the number of resurveys increases and the monitoring ...

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

The Impact of Climate Change and Human Habitation on Long‐Term Ecological Stability
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Direct human impacts and climate change jeopardise the stability of ecological systems. Recent trends are built atop a long history of vegetation change from the Pleistocene deglaciation and Holocene human population expansion. We aimed to model a long‐term measure of ecological stability over the last 20,000 years, a period that includes ...

Long‐Term Biodiversity–Stability Relationship in Temperate Mountain Forests
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Theories on ecological stability lack the long‐term observational data necessary to comprehend the dynamics of durable and complex ecosystems like forests; consequently, the influence of biodiversity on ecosystem stability remains predominantly unexplained.

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 264-291, August 2026.Leidyosuchus canadensis and Stangerochampsa mccabei share endocranial features such as posterior projection of a neurovascular canal in the maxilla and a paratympanic sinus system most similar to those of small‐bodied and young extant crocodylians, suggesting that these pedomorphic features may reflect the ancestral crocodylian condition.
