Nonlinear landscape responses of salt marsh vegetation to sediment decline and implications for coastal wetland management in the Yellow River Delta

Ecological Indicators
Salt marsh wetlands in the Yellow River Delta are highly sensitive to changes in riverine water and sediment supply, which are increasingly influenced by large-scale river regulation and coastal environmental change.

Native biocrust microbes modulate salinity‐driven recruitment filters in coastal wetlands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Mediterranean coastal wetlands are biodiversity hotspots increasingly threatened by climate change, particularly by salinization, which strongly constrains plant recruitment during early life stages. Native soil microbiota may provide nature‐based solutions (NbS) to enhance plant establishment under saline conditions.

Bio-geomorphic patterns in tidal environments [PDF]

, 2013
In times of natural and anthropogenic climate change, tidal bio-geomorphic systems are most exposed to possibly irreversible transformations with far-reaching ecological and socio-economic implications.

A layer-wise classification framework for coastal wetlands mapping using SAR time series and locally optimal spatiotemporal features

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Coastal wetland patterns in China have undergone dramatic changes in recent years due to the invasion and subsequent management of Spartina alterniflora (S. alterniflora). The ecological benefits of clearing S.

A Natural History of ‘Annoyances’: Knowing Weeds and Weeding Knowledge in the Early Royal Society and its ‘Georgicall Committee’

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seventeenth‐century virtuosi often figured themselves as epistemic weeders, grubbing up rank thickets of accumulated error. In this article, I argue that these metaphors were unnerved by the shifting status of weeds—ostensibly unwanted plants from the margins of cultivated space, unploughed land or the disturbed soils between growing crops—in ...

A Trial of Ground‐Based Methods for Controlling Osmunda regalis L. Invasion of Waikato Wetlands, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 4, December 2026.
Over 90% of palustrine wetlands in New Zealand have been lost, and those remaining face ongoing threats such as plant invasions. In the northern North Island, there is concern about widespread invasion of wetlands by royal fern (Osmunda regalis), a fast‐growing exotic fern introduced to New Zealand in 1890.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Marine rewilding principles as a guiding framework for large‐scale ecosystem restoration

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
As marine ecosystems face accelerating degradation from human pressures, interest is growing in approaches that move beyond protection toward active recovery of ecological processes. This article introduces marine rewilding as a forward‐looking framework and synthesizes ecological and social science to develop eight transdisciplinary principles that ...

Hydrologic, Plant and Soil Controls on Microbial Biomass and Enzyme Activities in a Natural and a Restored Freshwater Marsh of Eastern Ontario, Canada

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The hydrology and drainage history of freshwater marshes influence their soil properties and plant communities, which in turn affect microbial biomass and extracellular enzyme activities that regulate the biogeochemistry and functioning of the marsh. However, field reports examining the spatial differences and controls of microbial biomass and

Genomic Vulnerability of a Threatened Possum in a Biodiversity and Climate Change Hotspot

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Spatial variation in the magnitude and pace of climate change impacts means some species will be more affected than others. This includes those occurring within global biodiversity hotspots, regions with exceptional concentrations of endemic species that have often been shaped by long‐term climatic stability.
