On the Limits of Alpine Plants: A Systematic Review of the Factors Behind Species' Elevational Range Limits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Seagrass Gains: Faster Growth, Better Condition, Less Effort for Juvenile Snapper (Chrysophrys auratus)

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Seagrass habitats are widely recognised as key nursery areas for juvenile fish, yet their specific role in supporting growth and condition remains incompletely understood. This study investigates the diet, growth and condition of juvenile (0+) snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) across multiple habitats in the Hauraki Gulf and northeastern New Zealand, with ...

Finding the Best Nursery: How Habitat Features Shape Juvenile Snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) Density

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study examines habitat preferences of juvenile Australasian snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) in northeastern New Zealand, analysing data from 113 stations across structured and unstructured habitats. We investigated how juvenile snapper densities were influenced by environmental factors, including prey availability and physical habitat features ...

Translocating Intact Assemblages to Degraded Sites to Accelerate Ecological Recovery

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Estuarine ecosystems are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as climate change, coastal development, and increased nutrient and sediment inputs. These pressures are deteriorating ecological health and threatening the functioning and services that estuarine ecosystems provide.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Sensitivity of Flood Extent and Population Exposure to Variations in Bathymetry Across a Shallow Continental Shelf Lagoon

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Bathymetry is a critical input to storm surge models on coastlines fronted by lagoon systems, yet few studies explore how variations in bathymetry influence flood impacts, flooded extent, and exposed population across these globally widespread morphologies.
