estar: An R package to measure ecological stability

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1090-1100, April 2026.
Abstract Assessing ecological stability is a key task in biodiversity monitoring and conservation. Quantifying stability is not trivial because its different aspects can be measured with various properties. However, to date, no software enables measuring different stability properties on ecological time‐series data.

A Novel Topical Emollient Plus for Canine Atopic Dermatitis: A Clinical Trial Assessing Efficacy and User Acceptance

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 293-305, April 2026.
Background: Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common, chronic skin condition characterised by epidermal barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation and cutaneous dysbiosis. While “emollient plus” formulations are widely used in human atopic dermatitis, their role in cAD remains underexplored. Hypothesis/Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and

Taxonomic treatment, geographic distribution and preliminar conservation status of Croton sect. Barhamia subsect. Barhamia (Euphorbiaceae) in Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
The genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is an exceptionally megadiverse genus, encompassing roughly 1200 species that are predominantly distributed across tropical regions globally. For the New World, the genus is organized into three subgenera (Adenophylli, Geiseleria and Quadrilobi) and 31 sections, with C. sect. Barhamia standing out with its approximately

Beyond Ecology: How Environmental and Social Landscapes Shape Tropical Forest Restoration in Southeast Brazil

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Restoration was more associated with environmental variables than socioeconomics. Active restoration was utilized in degraded areas and pasture abandonment favored natural regeneration. Successful tropical restoration is dependent on a complex interdependent mix of factors.

Stemflow Dynamics in the Jamari National Forest (Brazilian Amazon): II. Solute Concentrations and Flux Dynamics

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Trees can redirect large volumes of rainwater to the base of their stems. This stemflow not only redistributes water but also channels canopy‐derived solutes to the forest floor. Building on research showing canopy geometry and bark properties govern stemflow volumes, we examined how those same traits modulate the biogeochemical side of this flux. Over

Beyond Core‐Periphery: A Multidimensional Typology of Brazilian Regional Inventive Capacity

open access: yesGrowth and Change, Volume 57, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The geography of invention in Brazil is characterized by a profound and multi‐polarised structure that extends beyond a simple core‐periphery dichotomy. This paper demonstrates this complexity through a multidimensional analysis of inventive capacity (2000–2023), operationalised along four axes—‘how much’, ‘who’, ‘how’, and ‘what’ is invented ...

Effect of a Spray Containing Occlusive Agents, Humectants and Physiological Lipids on Skin Hydration of Healthy Dogs When Applied After Bathing With a Chlorhexidine 2%/Miconazole 2% Shampoo

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 140-147, February 2026.
Background: Normal hydration of the canine epidermis is imperative for cutaneous homeostasis. Xerosis may be encountered in canine atopic dermatitis and may be aggravated by topical antiseptics. Hypothesis and Objectives: To evaluate the hydrating properties and the safety of a spray (Sensiderm spray; MP Labo) when applied after shampooing healthy dogs

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2674-2706, December 2025.
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Effects of Long‐Term Nutrient Addition on Leaf Metabolites, Herbivory, and Mycorrhizal Spores Associated With a Savannah Woody Species

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Given the importance of soil conditions for ecosystem functioning, fertilisation experiments are a valuable tool for assessing how systems respond to changes in soil properties. However, the effects of changes in nutrient availability on multitrophic interactions in savannah ecosystems of the Brazilian Cerrado are still scarce. We investigated
