Confirmation of the Tibetan Brown Bear (Ursus arctos pruinosus) in Central Nepal Based on Genetic and Camera‐Trap Evidence

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Using non‐invasive genetic analyses and systematic camera‐trap surveys, we provide the first genetic confirmation of the Tibetan brown bear (Ursus arctos pruinosus) in Nepal. Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial DNA placed all Nepalese samples within the Tibetan Plateau lineage, distinct from the Himalayan brown bear (U. a. isabellinus).

Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Landscape Patterns and Ecological Risk Under Changing Human Activity in the Qilian Mountains

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study investigated the spatiotemporal patterns of human activity intensity (HAI), landscape patterns, and landscape ecological risk (LER) in the Qilian Mountains from 2000 to 2020, and examined the spatial relationships between HAI and landscape patterns using spatial autocorrelation and geographically weighted regression.

Stand and Landscape Drivers of Trap Captures of the Pine Wilt Disease Vector Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in the Qinling Mountains

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study examines how stand structure and surrounding landscape context influence the trap‐based abundance of Monochamus alternatus, the principal vector of pine wilt disease, in the Qinling Mountains of China. Using pheromone‐trap monitoring, multi‐scale landscape metrics, and multimodel inference, we show that local host composition and fine‐scale ...

Multi‐Scale Habitat Drivers of Hainan Gibbon Distribution: Integrating Macro‐Environmental and Fine‐Scale Ecological Factors for Targeted Conservation of Threatened Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We revealed strong scale‐dependent divergence in the ecological drivers shaping Hainan gibbon distribution. Population‐level patterns were primarily constrained by macro‐environmental factors, whereas group‐level activity differed markedly between family groups in response to fine‐scale habitat features.

Patterns and Environmental Drivers of Amphibian Alpha and Beta Diversity in the Huangshan Mountains, Southern Anhui, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Based on systematic grid surveys across the Huangshan Mountains in southern Anhui, China, this study characterized amphibian alpha and beta diversity patterns and their environmental correlates. Annual precipitation and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) consistently emerged as the primary positive drivers of both local diversity and ...

Wolves and humans both shape patterns of deer browsing in a temperate forest ecosystem of Central Europe

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Predator–prey interactions can trigger behavioural responses in ungulates, influencing their space‐use and foraging behaviour and, in turn, indirectly affecting browsing pressure. Changes in browsing pressure can affect plant recruitment and species composition, shaping forest regeneration through predator‐mediated trophic cascades.

Mapping connectivity between important jaguar (Panthera onca) habitats in the Americas

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Habitat loss and reduced connectivity threaten the long‐term persistence of many large carnivore species across their ranges. Understanding connectivity among carnivore populations can bolster existing conservation strategies, and telemetry data from GPS collars are critical to informing these strategies.

Pomological and Biochemical Properties of Rosehip (Rosa canina L.) Genotypes

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Overview of the characterization of 10 naturally growing Rosa canina L. genotypes (TK1–TK10) collected in Tunceli, Türkiye. The study evaluated fruit and seed morphology, fruit color, soluble solids, titratable acidity, vitamin C, phenolic and flavonoid compounds, anthocyanins, antioxidant activity (DPPH and FRAP), and organic acids, followed by ...

Land Degradation and Its Economic Impacts on Agriculture and Forestry: Exploring IoT‐Based Mitigation Strategies

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11777-11790, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Land degradation threatens agricultural and forestry economies by lowering productivity, raising input costs, and increasing risk. This study examines whether Internet of Things applications moderate these losses in 1321 mainland Chinese counties from 2011 to 2024. Land degradation is measured separately through vegetation trends, modeled soil
