Characteristics and driving mechanisms of mixing and stratification in Suances estuary using the potential energy anomaly budget equation

Frontiers in Marine Science
The environmental variability of rivers and tides create complex mixing patterns, which modulate the estuarine ecosystem services. Therefore, a thorough understanding of these systems is vital, not only for their protection but also for their recovery ...

Decoupling of Taxonomic and Functional Recovery in a Multi‐Decadal Mixed Araucaria Forest Chronosequence

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how different biodiversity dimensions recover following disturbance is critical for interpreting forest successional trajectories. We examined this question in a protected remnant of Araucaria Mixed Forest (AMF) in subtropical southern Brazil, a frost‐prone montane system with multiple anthropogenic disturbance legacies.

Soil Biodiversity Supports Agroecosystem Services Under Multiple Global Change Factors

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Soil biodiversity is essential for maintaining healthy and productive agricultural systems under climate change. Using wheat fields exposed to up to eight global change factors, such as warming, drought, salinity, heavy metals, nitrogen addition, microplastics, pesticides, and alkalinization, we found that diverse soil communities play a critical role ...

Occurrence of Antibodies Anti‐Toxoplasma gondii in Captive Non‐Human Primates From Pernambuco State, Brazil

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife captive populations are important tools for threatened species conservation, and early identification of diseases must be prioritized. In this study, we test for the presence of anti‐Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in non‐human primates at a Zoo from Pernambuco State, Brazil.

Molecular and Phylogenetic Characterization of HTLV‐1 Infection in Patients With Hematological Malignancies in the State of Pará, Northern Brazil

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Human T‐lymphotropic viruses 1 and 2 (HTLV‐1 and HTLV‐2) were first isolated from patients with hematological malignancies. This study was the first to investigate the frequency of HTLV‐1 and its molecular diversity among patients with hematolymphoid cancers who were treated at a leading reference hospital in Pará, northern Brazil.

Tuning Functional Properties of Starch–Pectin Composites by Extrusion

Starch - Stärke, Volume 78, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study demonstrates that extrusion temperature modulates the structural cohesion, water affinity, and rheological properties of composites based on pregelatinized starch and pectin. The findings highlight the potential of thermal processing to tailor the functionality of starch–pectin systems for food and biopolymer applications.

Environmental detection of the amphibian chytrid fungus in water bodies is associated with host infection along a deforestation gradient

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Linking environmental pathogen detection with host infection patterns can improve surveillance of diseases involving environmental transmission, particularly where direct host sampling is logistically challenging. This approach enables the identification of areas of elevated transmission risk and supports targeted monitoring and management under ...
