Antimicrobial Resistance Among Selected Zoonotic Bacteria: A Case Study of Tortoises and Birds at the Uganda Wildlife Conservation Education Centre

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study investigated antimicrobial resistance in birds and tortoises at the Uganda Wildlife Conservation Education Centre. Escherichia coli predominated in birds, whereas Salmonella enteritidis predominated in tortoises with resistance to sulphonamides detected.

Examining associations between foundational and complex mathematics skills in people with Down syndrome and typically developing children

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 573-589, September 2026.
Abstract Acquiring mathematical competence is essential to independent living. In this study, we investigated the mathematics profile in young people with Down syndrome (DS), and the relations between foundational and more complex mathematics skills.

The Limits of Sociological Practice: On the Analytical Function of Sociology

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 56, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether sociologists have lost sight of the proper scope of the discipline from a functional perspective, arguing that many of the tensions surrounding sociology arise from expectations that exceed its analytical function. Contemporary sociology is often expected to provide immediate solutions, predict future developments

Oxygen Ion Percentage Inferred From the Cutoff Frequencies of Ionospheric ELF Hiss Emissions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The lower cutoff frequency of hiss emissions observed in the ionosphere is controlled by local plasma composition and density. This study identifies 6,340 ionospheric hiss wave events based on observations from the China Seismo‐Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES‐01) from 1 August 2018 to 31 July 2020.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1851-1862, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Influence of the nycthemeral cycle on the roosting behaviour of the Orange-winged Amazon

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2012
Environmental stimuli exert important effects on the expression of the endogenous rhythms. Daily movements of groups of parrots in response to the light/dark cycle have been studied by several researchers.

Home Range and Habitat Selection of the Endangered Red Goshawk (Erythrotriorchis radiatus) Across Australia's Tropical Savannas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We used long‐term GPS tracking to quantify home‐range size and habitat selection of the endangered Red Goshawk across tropical savannas of northern Australia. Red Goshawks occupied extensive overall home ranges, with well‐defined core ranges centred on nest sites.

Spatial‐Scale Evolutionary Bias Sheds Light on the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using Escherichia coli as a model species, our experimental findings reveal that populations in high‐fitness‐gain geographic regions undergo rapid expansion, competitively excluding populations from low‐fitness‐gain regions. This results in adaptive evolution that is biased toward areas with higher fitness potential.

Thinking Outside the Black Box: Seven Guidelines for GenAI Use in the Ecological Sciences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We identify key challenges associated with GenAI integration in the field of ecology and provide seven actionable guidelines to support its responsible and effective use. More broadly, we call for a concerted effort to engage in reflective and intentional use of GenAI in ecological research, resisting pressures to prioritize efficiency over the rigor ...
