A soil sensing mechanism to reach carbon flux at a country scale

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon reservoir and can be a source or sink of CO2 for the atmosphere, depending on management practices. CO2 emissions from the soil surface (FCO2) are directly related to the biological and physicochemical soil properties. Our objective was to estimate and spatialize the net ecosystem production (NEP) for the

A multi‐network approach to assess how physical templates shape stream fish ecological strategies

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
This multi‐network framework identifies a continuous topological gradient of fish ecological strategies—comprising Dispersal Gateways, Integrated Connectors, and Mass Effect Dominated species—within the dendritic river template. The functional role of stream reaches is scale‐sensitive, particularly at headwater extremes where sites operate as critical ...

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.
