Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

Reef fish assemblages impacted by sponges overgrowing corals

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Numerous stressors are driving long‐term declines in coral cover on coral reefs, significantly impacting reef fish biodiversity and community structure. The benthic space made available by declining coral cover is often occupied by increases in other organisms, including macroalgae, encrusting ascidians, and sponges.

When conservation meets contagion: Mapping yellow fever risk to guide vaccination in an endangered primate

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Spatial projections revealed high‐risk areas for YF transmission, highlighting priority zones for targeted vaccination efforts in GLTs. By integrating disease ecology into conservation planning, this study offers a scalable framework for spatially informed interventions aimed at mitigating disease‐driven declines in threatened species.

Role of freshwater availability and terrestrial land‐cover change in the distribution of a declining, terrestrial, insectivorous bird

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Resenha do livro: 'Oficiais mecânicos da cidade de Salvador'

Revista de História, 1977
(primeiro parágrafo do texto) A História do Brasil, notadamente a do Período Colonial, ainda é uma História de elites, de grupos dominantes. A "arraia-miúda", as populações urbanas, os homens-livres não figuram em seu elenco de heróis.

Effects of Warming on Growth and Leaf Colonization by Litter Mat‐Forming Fungi in a Wet Tropical Forest in Puerto Rico

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
We took advantage of a long‐running field warming experiment, the Tropical Responses to Altered Climate Experiment (TRACE) located in the Luquillo Experimental Forest in Puerto Rico to evaluate the effects of +4°C warming on relative growth rates (RGR) and time to leaf colonization of a recently senesced leaf for drought‐tolerant species Marasmius ...

Does the Name Still Matter? A Longitudinal Correspondence Study of Hiring Discrimination by Ethnicity and Gender in a Nordic Labour Market

Canadian Review of Sociology/Revue canadienne de sociologie, Volume 63, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines changes in labour‐market discrimination against second‐generation immigrants in Finland over an 8‐year period, focusing on five groups. It draws on two large‐scale field experiments conducted in 2016 and 2024, in which 10,000 matched applications were sent to 2000 vacancies across five sectors. The findings show a nuanced
