Are Growth Bands in Macadamia integrifolia Annual?

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Although two of the four Australian endemic Macadamia species are well known as horticultural crops, little is understood about their use by First Nations peoples or their longevity. Robust age estimation of the age attainable by Macadamia integrifolia would help inform conservation planning and cultivation.

The Temporal Imperative: Palaeo‐Proxies and Nature‐Based Solutions for Resilient Natural Inland Wetland Conservation and Management in Southeast Asia—A Systematic Review

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural inland wetlands in Southeast Asia provide key biodiversity, hydrological, carbon‐storage and livelihood functions, but are increasingly affected by land‐use change, fire, hydrological modification and climate change and variability.

Ancient Plumage Colour Genetics Reveal Goose Domestication and Hybridization

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In archaeological assemblages, differentiating the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser), has been challenging due to their similar skeletal morphologies. A short region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysed from ancient DNA (aDNA) has been shown to distinguish wild greylags from domestic geese, but ...

Autonomous Machine Learning‐Based Classification and Arrangement of Submillimeter Objects Using a Capillary Force Gripper

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
This study presents an automated system integrating a capillary force gripper and machine learning‐based object detection for sorting and placing submillimeter objects. The system achieved stable and simultaneous manipulation of four object types, with an average task time of 86.0 seconds and a positioning error of 157 ± 84 µm, highlighting its ...

Testing the Dry Refuge Model: Paleoecological Insights From Late Pleistocene Gomphotheres in Ecuador

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present paleontological evidence that may prove the Dry Refuge Model in Ecuador during the Late Pleistocene. ABSTRACT Paleoenvironmental records indicate that Neotropical regions near the Equator experienced reduced rainfall during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). However, some records show conflicting environmental signals.

Beyond the Paddy Fields: Riparian Reed Beds as Essential Natural Habitat for the Critically Endangered Suweon Treefrog, Dryophytes suweonensis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This figure shows the true habitat type of Dryophytes suweonensis that this paper aims to demonstrate. ABSTRACT The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis (Kuramoto, 1980)), a critically endangered amphibian endemic to the Korean Peninsula, is widely regarded as being closely associated with rice paddies.

Slope and sediment size in the development of pebble and cobble beaches with low permeability

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
We studied beaches composed of coarse‐grained beaches. In spite that the occurrence of an impermeable layer at a low depth that reduces its permeability, the correlation between the beach slope and the sediment size corresponds to what was expected, and the underlying and cohesive sediment reached the same slope of the beach.

Increasing Frequency of Coastal Erosion Indicated by a Hindcast Model of Storm‐Driven Forcing Calibrated With Beach Stratigraphy

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Beach stratigraphy at North Beach, Sandy Hook, New Jersey is used to calibrate a model of coastal erosion, establish a model‐based erosion threshold, and evaluate how often threshold conditions have been exceeded since 1979 through hindcast analysis.
