Terrestrial Ecosystem Detection Based on Deep Learning Framework and Satellite Image Geographical Information

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
The proposed deep learning framework integrates ResNet‐50 and LSTM models to detect and classify terrestrial ecosystems from satellite imagery. The workflow begins with image preprocessing using bilateral, guided, and median filters to enhance image quality and preserve edges.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1091-1107, July 2026.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

Goby gummies: A customizable and edible assay to quantify predation in aquatic ecosystems

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 2092-2103, July 2026.
Abstract Predation is a critical ecosystem process that shapes the structure and functioning of biological communities. However, due to its intermittent nature, fast pace and general unpredictability, predation is difficult to observe and quantify. Therefore, we commonly rely on indirect metrics or proxies of predation, which reflect the outcome of ...

Out There No One Has a Right to Die

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 565-572, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The eventual goal of space exploration is to colonize exoplanets and their moons outside our solar system. This is a dangerous and immoral endeavour. The extraterrestrial life forms encountered would be hostile, vulnerable or both, and the descendants of the original pioneers would be involuntarily exposed to hazardous conditions and ...

Do Coexisting Cryptic Species of Predatory Peacock Bass (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) Partition Their Niche?

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have
