Phylogenomic use of low‐copy nuclear markers from genome skimming data: An example from Melastomataceae

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The emergence of conflicting signals among different genomic regions, individual genes, and inference methods has been frequently reported in phylogenomic studies. Conflicts can occur from methodological error and biological processes, and disentangling the contribution of each putative source of discordance became a major challenge.

Multiterminal High‐Voltage Direct Current Projects: A Comprehensive Assessment and Future Prospects

open access: yesHigh Voltage, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 317-344, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Multiterminal high‐voltage direct current (MT‐HVDC) systems are an important part of modern power systems, addressing the need for bulk power delivery and efficient renewable energy integration. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in MT‐HVDC technology, including launched projects and ongoing initiatives.

Does Micro-CT scanning damage DNA in museum specimens? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
X-ray micro-computed tomography and DNA sequencing are useful and increasingly common tools in taxonomy and collections research. Whilst the benefits of each method are continually evaluated and debated individually, how the methods impact each other ...

Rethinking the impacts of bottom trawling on seabed carbon: Biogeochemical mechanisms, vulnerability and long‐term climate consequences

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Synthesis and applications: Given this strong context dependence, effective protection of seabed carbon stocks requires region‐specific assessments that identify and prioritise habitats with high burial potential amongst considerations for increased short‐term CO2 release, rather than blanket trawling bans or uniform effort reductions.

Support for Integrated Ecosystem Assessments of NOAA’s National Estuarine Research Reserves System (NERRS), Volume I: The Impacts of Coastal Development on the Ecology and Human Well-being of Tidal Creek Ecosystems of the US Southeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A study was conducted, in association with the Sapelo Island and North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERRs), to evaluate the impacts of coastal development on sentinel habitats (e.g., tidal creek ecosystems), including potential impacts ...

A limpet's eye view of post‐glacial isostasy: fixed biological indicators provide new sea‐level index points for the Mid‐Holocene relative highstand in eastern Northern Ireland

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 585-599, April 2026.
Bioerosional scars made by limpets (Patella) on a cliff in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland, indicate a Mid‐Holocene RSL of +7.8±0.55 m relative to local mid‐tide level today. This is higher than previous empirical data for the region and extrapolated levels from raised shorelines in Scotland but consistent with some recent GIA models.

Biogeographic Diversity Meets Functional Similarity: Trait Convergence in Benthic Infauna From the Arctic Ice‐Covered North to Ice‐Free South

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Species redistributions and ecological shifts are increasingly evident in Arctic ecosystems, but few studies have examined benthic invertebrate communities using biogeographic and functional frameworks. This study examines the distribution of Arctic, Boreal, and Cosmopolitan infaunal species across a latitudinal gradient on the West ...

The Role of Life Stages in the Sensitivity of Hediste diversicolor to Nanoplastics: A Case Study with Poly(Methyl)Methacrylate (PMMA)

open access: yesToxics
The presence of plastic particles in oceans has been recognized as a major environmental concern. The decrease in particle size increases their ability to directly interact with biota, with particles in the nanometer size range (nanoplastics—NPs ...

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 246-259, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

The hard and soft of it: The role of substrate in patterns of phase dominance and phenology in Gracilaria vermiculophylla

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 377-399, April 2026.
Abstract Despite the importance of the seasonal timing of events in the life cycle for understanding population dynamics, we lack information on the phenology of most macroalgal species. The red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla has become common in both hard‐ and soft‐bottom habitats following its invasion throughout the Northern Hemisphere.
