Methods to estimate marine functional connectivity: A primer

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 4, June 2026.
Abstract Organism movement is a key process in the transfer of individuals, genes, functional traits, matter, and energy among habitat patches, at sea and across the land–sea interface. The resulting fluxes, collectively termed marine functional connectivity (MFC), underpin planetary health and an array of ecosystem services.

Chasing (macro)elements in microinvertebrates: A new methodological approach for quantitative and qualitative analyses of phosphorus by PIXE (Particle‐Induced X‐Ray Emission) applied to glacier tardigrades

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Microinvertebrates in harsh environments often occupy the highest trophic levels and directly influence the turnover of macroelements. However, the investigation of their body elemental composition is complicated due to their low dry weight or sample ...

Research Trends on Trace Element Contamination in Brazilian Urban Lentic Ecosystems: Environmental and Policy Drivers

International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Lentic ecosystems are vulnerable to contamination by trace elements, which can accumulate and pose risks to aquatic life and human health. In a large, developing country such as Brazil, marked by vast geographic, environmental, and socioeconomic diversity, it is crucial to understand how these factors shape research on this group of ...

Greek Commodities in Phoenicia: An Interdisciplinary Study of Imported Amphorae From Tell el‐Burak (Lebanon)

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 395-408, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines transport amphorae of Greek/Aegean types from the 7th–4th c. BCE imported to the Phoenician coastal settlement of Tell el‐Burak, Lebanon. We present a selection of 58 pieces analyzed by typological, chemical (NAA), and petrographic approaches.
