Nesting and Habitat Characteristics of White‐Browed Sparrow‐Weavers (Plocepasser mahali, Smith) at Chemeron, Baringo South, Kenya

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
. ABSTRACT Arid and semi‐arid lands (ASALs) support tropical wooded shrublands and grasslands that sustain a diverse array of flora and fauna, including specialized avian communities. However, as the demand for food, fuel, and other natural resources intensifies, these inherently fragile ecosystems face mounting pressure, resulting in significant ...

Origins Under the Blowtorch: Frequent Fire Shifts the Balance Between Sunda‐Origin and Sahul‐Origin Plant Species in a Tropical Savanna

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We examined the effect of fire frequency on the composition of vegetation of different biogeographic origins, to understand how frequently an ecosystem can be subject to fire but still retain its evolutionary diversity. There was dramatic structural and biogeographic change in less than 20 years from dry tropical woodlands into savannas, creating ...

Effects of Proximity to Abandoned Livestock Corrals on Standing Grass Biomass, Grass Species Diversity, and Wildlife Use in Olare Motorogi Conservancy, Maasai Mara, Kenya

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pastoralists in African savanna ecosystems are shifting from livelihoods based purely on livestock only to a blended approach of livestock keeping and wildlife conservation for eco‐tourism. A popular feature of this model is the establishment of community conservancies that encourage co‐existence of traditional livestock keeping with wildlife ...

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.
