First Observations of Potential Iteroparity in Pacific Capelin Mallotus catervarius

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Using histology to examine ovarian structures in Pacific capelin for the first time, we found biological evidence that captive, age‐1, female Pacific capelin Mallotus catervarius are capable of iteroparity (41% of mature females). Evidence of the potential to spawn over multiple years included more than one oocyte cohort, including primary ...

Forest Disturbance Drives Changes in the Functional Traits of Soil Bacteria: A Metagenomic Study of Kauri (Agathis australis) Forest Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study reveals how ecological disturbances reshape the structure and function of soil bacterial communities in kauri forests, which are critical for ecosystem resilience. By linking disturbance regimes to shifts in bacterial diversity and functional capacity, it highlights the wider effects of ecosystem disturbance on soil ecological function ...

The Windy City Rookery: Movement and Activity Patterns of Black‐Crowned Night Herons (Nycticorax nycticorax) in a Human‐Dominated Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Black‐crowned night herons (BCNH) are a cryptic, widely distributed colonial wading bird. Despite showing regional declines in North America, this species has successfully adapted to colonize urban areas. In this study, our team used GPS/GSM transmitters to explore the space use, habitat use, and diel activity patterns of BCNH breeding at the largest ...

Assessing the Ecological Network of Svalbard Through Scaled Interaction Strength Data: Insights From a Century of Research

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this work, we integrate existing knowledge on interaction strengths into a conceptual model of the Svalbard Ecological Network. We also highlight current knowledge gaps and challenges in establishing a robust baseline of species interactions in the region.

Using biotelemetry to assess drone effects on whale sharks

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The use of unoccupied aerial vehicles or drones for wildlife research has proliferated in recent years and they have proven to be a valuable tool for collecting data for population surveys, morphometric and body condition measurements, and for observing behavior.

Tracking interannual variation of a large‐scale ocean front influences foraging in a mesopelagic predator

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Macroscale ocean fronts aggregate significant biomass and provide critical foraging habitat for large marine predators. These frontal systems shift in response to ocean climate variation, including basin‐scale oscillations, and the degree to which marine predators track these movements affects their foraging and reproductive success. Using two
