3D Variations in Viscosity Reconcile the Strength of the Lower Mantle Inferred From Glacial Isostatic Adjustment and Mantle Convection

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract A widely accepted global model of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is based on ICE‐6G ice loading and 1D‐viscosity model VM5a, a viscosity profile which remains at odds with mantle convection constraints such as from geoid modeling. We explore 3D‐viscosity variations in models of GIA and show that a model with lateral viscosity variations ...

Status and Prospect of Secondary Battery Technologies in Space Applications: Challenges and the Future

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
Lithium‐ion batteries used in space applications are exposed to extreme conditions, including radiation, vacuum, wide temperature fluctuations, and long storage times, all of which accelerate degradation. This review article summarizes the main degradation mechanisms affecting battery performance in space environments, including capacity fade ...

Size‐Dependent Habitat Selection in a Tropical Freshwater Crayfish: Preference for Vegetated Refugia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Young freshwater crayfish need shelter to survive, but it is often unclear whether they actively choose safe habitats or simply remain where they are found. We show that craylings and juvenile red claw crayfish prefer vegetated habitats over bare sand or gravel, and that this preference becomes stronger as crayfish grow.

Wildlife Responses to Drone Noise: A Preliminary Approach for Quantifying Disturbance During Single‐ and Dual‐Drone Flights

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Single drone (a) and dual‐drone (a + b) setups used to assess behavioral responses to drone noise exposure. ABSTRACT Drones are increasingly being deployed to study wildlife; however, growing evidence indicates that drone noise can alter animal behavior and confound ecological data.

Trait‐filtered responses of mammal communities to land use change in a Neotropical dry forest

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Land use change alters forest ecosystems by reducing habitat amount and often increasing fragmentation, but the relative importance of these drivers for community dynamics remains debated. It is also unclear whether functional traits consistently predict species' responses to forest change, particularly in tropical dry forests.
