Bird Diversity and Habitat Associations in the Tara Gedam Monastery Church Forest: A Seasonally Informed Study in Northwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study explores how habitat structure and seasonal variation shape bird diversity in the Tara Gedam Monastery church forest of Ethiopia. Across wet and dry seasons, 94 species were recorded, with abundance higher in the wet season but diversity remaining stable, underscoring the forest's role as a perennial refuge.

Ensemble Modeling Reveals Severe Contraction of Dhole's (Cuon alpinus Pallas, 1811) Suitable Habitat and Future Climate Refugia Across China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
The dhole (Cuon alpinus), an endangered carnivore species and one of China's highest‐level protected animals, faces significant threats from both climate change and human disturbance. Since the 1980s, dhole habitat has dramatically shrunk by approximately half, with the current main stronghold being the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau.

Habitat and Anthropogenic Determinants of Otter Presence in the Karnali River, Western Nepal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Despite increasing human pressures, otters persist along the Western Bend of the Karnali River. Occurrence of otters decreases with higher house density and presence of dogs. The study indicates otters tolerate some general human activity but strongly avoid settlements and dogs, highlighting the need for dog management, reduced settlement pressure, and

Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Low sediment retention efficiency limits delta formation in tectonically confined high‐energy coastal systems

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Conceptual framework showing how tectonic confinement, steep monsoon‐driven river dynamics, high‐energy coastal processes and offshore sediment dispersal together limit sediment retention at the Narmada–Tapi river mouths, suppressing sustained subaerial delta formation despite high sediment supply. Abstract Although deltaic growth is commonly linked to
