Measuring Bird Morphology From Field Photographs

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We evaluated a digital photography approach based on the pinhole camera model to estimate bird morphometric traits from single images, testing its accuracy under controlled conditions and across 37 species photographed in the field. Photographic measurements showed strong agreement with museum and database‐derived traits (ρ = 0.82–0.95), with wing and ...

Exploring Human‐Wildlife Coexistence Through the Lens of Value Pluralism Among Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This paper examines how the value pluralism of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities shapes their relationships with wildlife and governing institutions. Through a critical interpretive synthesis (CIS), we showed how the value pluralism of IPLCs begets and enriches the complexities and dynamics of coexistence.

Selection on PER2 Phosphorylation Regulation Underlies Atypical Mammalian Circadian Rhythms

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
1. Positive selection on PER2 phosphorylation regulators in atypical circadian mammals. 2. Dolphin CSNK1E enhances PER2 phosphorylation at the stabilizing S662 site and extends PER2 half‐life. 3. Dolphin CSNK1E increases locomotor activity and reduces sleep in zebrafish.

Observation of Arctic island barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) migratory movement delay due to human induced sea-ice breaking

, 2013
The seasonal migration of the Dolphin and Union caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) herd between Victoria Island and the mainland (Nunavut/Northwest Territories, Canada) relies on the formation of sea-ice that connects the Island to the mainland ...

Increase in plant productivity in the tundra in Sweden is not related to increasing presence of warm‐adapted vascular plant species

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Over the past decades, Arctic and alpine biomes have warmed faster than the global average. Substantial vegetation changes have been reported as a response to this warming, including increased productivity and the spread of warm‐adapted (thermophilic) species that are less resistant to grazing pressure into higher latitudes and altitudes.

Effect of behavioral marginality on survival of an alpine ungulate

Ecosphere, 2019
Inter‐individual variability in behavior has been studied extensively for a wide range of species. However, few researchers have considered marginality, defined as the degree to which a choice made by an individual is located at the margins of the ...

Integrating ZooMS and taphonomy further highlights differential processing of animal and Neandertal carcasses in the Quina Mousterian at Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, southwest France)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 1125-1140, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The cave of Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, France) was repeatedly visited by Neandertals ~55 000 years ago and is a key site in discussions of Neandertal cannibalism. Excavations between 1967 and 1980 (Vandermeersch) and between 2001 and 2013 (Maureille/Mann) produced a rich faunal assemblage (>20 000 bones), alongside Quina Mousterian ...

Reindeer grazing induces spatial and functional shifts in root systems of boreal pine forests

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
The spatial distribution of roots, laterally and vertically, is critical for nutrient and water uptake and for driving root‐associated carbon inputs and turnover. Large herbivores, such as reindeer, influence ecosystems belowground by altering aboveground vegetation composition and soil microclimate.
