Reproductive Biology and Life‐History Plasticity of the Yellowfin Snapper Lutjanus xanthopinnis in the Southern South China Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The reproductive biology of the yellowfin snapper Lutjanus xanthopinnis, recently identified as a new species, was first examined across all seasons in the southwestern South China Sea. Spawning in both female and male L. xanthopinnis was observed over the years.

Progress in Biodegradable Nonwoven Materials for Personal Protective Applications

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Personal protective equipment generates large waste streams, underscoring the need for materials that deliver protection without persistent environmental costs. This study reviews biodegradable nonwoven options and relates material choice and disposal routes to barrier performance, comfort, and footprint.

Evaluation of Contact Stress and Fatigue Life for Roller Crowning Profiles in Triple Roller Pitch Bearings

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the contact stress and rating life of a three‐row pitch bearing for wind turbines, considering the effects of roller crowning. All crowning profiles were logarithmic, and a total of six profiles were examined based on the Romax, ISO 16281, and Fujiwara equations.

Hidden Microbiota Inhabiting in Pollen Reserves of Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) From Amazonas Region Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
DNA metabarcoding of honey bee pollen reserves from Amazonas region reveals that microbial communities are strongly shaped by their ecosystem. Despite high taxonomic turnover across different habitats, these microbiomes maintain stable, essential functions for pollinator health, though they remain highly vulnerable to habitat homogenization.

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Prioritizing Shark, Ray, and Chimaera Conservation in Rapidly Changing Polar Waters

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Polar sharks, rays, and chimaeras face growing pressures from changing sea‐ice conditions, expanding fisheries, and limited protection. Our assessment highlights where critical habitats occur and how Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRAs) can support more targeted conservation and fisheries management across the Arctic and Antarctic.
