Are Ecosystems the Missing Link in Circular Transitions? Insights From a Comprehensive Literature Analysis

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 5452-5470, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Although recent literature on the circular economy (CE) has highlighted the important role of ecosystems, there is still limited understanding of the main themes that characterize circular ecosystems. This study addresses this gap by combining a comprehensive topic modeling analysis employing latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) with a systematic

Climate‐Driven Habitat Suitability Modeling for the Vulnerable Species Euryops pinifolius A. Rich in Ethiopia: Implications for Conservation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Euryops pinifolius, vulnerable plant species in Ethiopia's Afroalpine ecosystem, faces serious threats from overexploitation for fuelwood. Using the MaxEnt model (AUC = 0.985), this study identified key environmental factors‐such as temperature, altitude, vegetation cover, and precipitation seasonality‐affecting its current and future habitat ...

Biogeomorphic Feedbacks Triggered by Mangrove Degradation at the Seaward Margin Accelerate Persistent Vegetation Decline

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Seaward mangrove edge exhibited significant retreat after extreme disturbances. Rhizophora stylosa exhibited impaired regeneration and root damage in heavily disturbed areas, trait variation primarily responded to elevation and sediment properties, vegetation loss triggered subsidence, creating a positive biogeomorphic feedback loop.

Traits Explain Canopy Tree Occurrence Along Regional Environmental Gradients: A Subset Combine to Be Useful

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our paper addresses the problem of “How to predict where a tree can be found from its traits?” We show that wood density, bark thickness, maximum height and seed mass combine for a useful model of tree distributions. ABSTRACT Trait‐Species Distribution Models (trait‐SDM) help to understand the importance of plant strategies to niches, assess their ...

How Large, Decayed, and Moist Must Rotting Logs Be to Act as Thermally Buffered Microhabitats in Temperate Eastern United States Forests?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study addresses the ecological role of coarse woody debris (CWD) as a thermally buffered microhabitat for saproxylic organisms in temperate eastern US forests. We measured internal and external log temperatures across four seasons in Southern Appalachian forests to test how log diameter, decay stage, and moisture influence thermal buffering.

Canopy Definitions Shape Canopy Space Filling–Productivity Relationships: Evidence From Terrestrial Laser Scanning

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The spatial arrangement of trees and their branches within the canopy is crucial for light interception, often resulting in a positive relationship between canopy space filling and stand productivity. To date, there is no universal definition of canopy space.
