Alternative Future Vegetation Pathways Reveal Potential Transformations of Western US Ecosystems
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.We used climate‐analog impact models (AIMs) to project changes in vegetation across the western United States under a mid‐21st century climate scenario, characterize ecological transformation vulnerability based on projection divergence, and demonstrate how AIMs can inform decision‐making.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We assessed behaviors of female wild turkeys during the laying period and evaluated impacts of those behaviors on nest success and female survival. We found that increased movements during laying resulted in a decreased probability of nest success but an increased probability of female survival during incubation.

Supporting dryland restoration success with applied ecological forecasting of seeding outcomes
Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration is increasingly used to sustain biodiversity and ecosystem services. In drylands of the western United States (US), post‐disturbance restoration often involves seeding treatments to promote the recovery of native plant communities. Spatial and temporal variability in environmental conditions influences plant

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The present opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of sucralose (E 955) as food additive and with the safety of a proposed extension of use in food category (FC) 7.2 ‘Fine bakery wares’. Based on the available data, no safety concerns arose for genotoxicity of sucralose (E 955) and its impurities and degradation products.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.Dietary supplementation of lemongrass powder (0.50 g per kg metabolic body weight) with a basal diet significantly enhanced lamb daily gain, growth velocity, feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility. It increased serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C), albumin and IgG concentrations, while reducing aspartate aminotransferase (AST ...
