Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.Mediterranean ecosystems face complex, multi‐trophic impacts from global‐change drivers, yet responses are often studied in isolation. Using the Doñana Protected Area as a case study, we illustrate how anthropogenic pressures on key species like cork oaks and rabbits, as well as increases in species like wild boar and invasive crayfish, lead to ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Restoring predator populations can generate cascading effects on their prey by reshaping ecosystem food webs, yet its consequences for prey community organization and multi‐trophic dynamics remain poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate how native predator recovery shapes prey biodiversity, assembly processes, and trophic dependencies, and

Leveraging Roadless Areas to Support Strict Protection in the EU
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Strictly protected areas exhibit lower levels of disturbance to habitats and species and are central to biodiversity conservation. Yet only 4% of the EU's land is currently placed under strict protection, far below the 10% target set by the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030. This study examines the potential of roadless areas to contribute

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract Risks to soil health from increased flooding and drought due to climate change are a priority risk area for the UK government, but our analysis of two years of UK newspaper coverage on this issue reveals very little attention to it. Our multimodal framing analysis shows that news reports are largely devoid of addressing the root causes ...
