Site‐specific climate responses of soil decomposer biodiversity in forests
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Climate change strongly impacts forest ecosystems, exacerbating drought stress, tree mortality, and shifts in species composition. While aboveground changes are well documented, belowground biodiversity and its response to climate‐driven alterations remain less studied.

Neonatal mortality in roe deer [PDF]
, 2004 Using radiotelemetry I investigated magnitude and main causes of neonatal mortality of the European roe deer Capreolus capreolus in two long-term studies (Ekenäs 1986-1999, Bogesund 1997-2003) in central Sweden. Summer mortality was 51 and 52% in the two areas, respectively, and predation by red fox Vulpes vulpes accounted for 88% of the mortality in ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 896-914, August 2026.ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.During an outbreak of 7 wildfires in eastern Oregon, USA, we analyzed the home range and movement patterns of mule deer and elk before, during, and immediately after wildfires. Mule deer maintained high site fidelity during the wildfire but used their home range more uniformly and had higher daily displacement than deer unaffected by wildfire.

Cougar density on the Oregon Coast: Using dead recovery modeling in an open population
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.The primary objective of this study was to determine cougar density in western Oregon. Our results demonstrate that integrating DNA collected via bio‐darting, mandatory hunter‐harvest check‐ins, and GPS collar data into the OPCR2 is a reliable method for estimating cougar densities in densely forested coastal systems.

, 2011 We studied partial migrations in the European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), a species particularly suited for such a study, due to a wide distribution range and a high level of ecological plasticity and adaptation to human-induced environmental changes. We undertook a comparative analysis of a set of representative and contrasting European ecosystems

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.

Leukocyte profiles reveal sex and age differences in immune investment in a polygynous bat
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1453-1463, August 2026.Analysis of over 500 blood cell profiles, including repeat samples over four years, reveals that male bats from a long‐lived species with a polygynous mating system invest more in innate than adaptive immunity. Investment in innate immunity increases with age, as estimated by a DNA methylation clock and mark‐recapture data.
