Impacts of Climate Change on Food Security: Land Management–Based Strategies Within a Nature‐Based Solutions Framework

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9155-9189, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses serious threats to food security by affecting agricultural production processes in multiple ways. This study aims to analyze land management–based solution strategies that can be developed in response to this threat and presents a systematic and holistic framework through the relationship these strategies establish with ...

Vegetation Structure and Diversity Under Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration: A Comparison of Silvo‐Arable and Silvo‐Pastoral Systems in Kenya

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9190-9201, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is a low‐cost, adaptable agroforestry practice that enhances land restoration by promoting systematic integration of naturally regenerating trees within farming systems through tree selection and management.

Phytochemical Profiling and Biological Evaluation of Anthyllis henoniana Organs: Integrated In Vitro and Molecular Docking Insights Into Antioxidant, Anti‐Inflammatory, and Cytotoxic Potential

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2026.
Anthyllis henoniana aerial parts were subjected to fractionated extraction. Methanolic fractions yielded high total phenolic and flavonoid contents with strong antiradical (anti‐DPPH) and neuroprotective (anti‐AChE) activities, whereas dichloromethane and cyclohexane fractions demonstrated potent cytotoxicity (anti‐MCF‐7, anti‐HCT‐116) and anti ...

Home Range and Habitat Selection of the Endangered Red Goshawk (Erythrotriorchis radiatus) Across Australia's Tropical Savannas

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We used long‐term GPS tracking to quantify home‐range size and habitat selection of the endangered Red Goshawk across tropical savannas of northern Australia. Red Goshawks occupied extensive overall home ranges, with well‐defined core ranges centred on nest sites.

Encroachment on Water Corridors Drives Farmers–Giraffe Conflicts Along River Tana Ecosystem in Eastern Kenya

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Human–wildlife conflict in Garissa County, Kenya, is intensified by the degradation of historical water corridors, driven mainly by Prosopis juliflora invasion, farmland expansion, and riverbank erosion. This study identifies conflict hotspots near water sources and croplands, and shows that supplementary feeding effectively reduces giraffe incursions ...

Three Decades of Monitoring Reveal That Differing Population Trends of Large Herbivores in Gonarezhou National Park, Zimbabwe, Are Related to Species Body Mass

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
For ~20 years after the severe 1992 drought, the estimated numbers of elephant, buffalo, eland, giraffe, greater kudu, nyala, warthog, waterbuck, wildebeest and zebra increased in Gonarezhou NP, Zimbabwe. After 2013/2014, the rate of change in the survey estimates declined for buffalo, eland, elephant, giraffe and zebra, but was not negative ...

Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Warming reduces the quality of forage resources in a Colorado meadow ecosystem

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rangelands provide ecosystem services that support approximately 30% of the human population. To maintain sustainable forage resources for animals in grasslands, it is essential to manage grazing pressures by adapting to changes in the quantity and nutritional quality of vegetation affected by climate change and subsequent shifts in plant ...
