Veronica paczoskiana is no more than a pine forest ecotype of V. spicata that evolved independently in forest‐steppes of Ukraine and the Altai region

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
The Eurasian steppe area has been a dynamic vegetation biome during the Pleistocene with its repeated cycles of forest advances and retreats. Such a scenario allows the evolution of ecotypes at the ecotone with the potential for parallel evolution in different parts of the distribution area.

Long‐Term Increases in Ca2+, Mg2+, and SO42− Concentrations in the Kolyma River (1980–2022) Due To Yedoma Degradation

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Permafrost degradation under a warming climate has altered hydrological and biogeochemical processes across the Arctic. Although increasing fluxes of weathering‐derived ions (e.g., Ca2+, Mg2+, and SO42−) have been reported in Arctic rivers, the underlying mechanisms and hotspots within basins remain poorly understood due to limited analysis of

Assessing wildfire dynamics during a megafire in Portugal using the MesoNH/ForeFire coupled model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 775, January 2026 Part B.
Weather conditions affect megafires by inducing different fire behaviors over several days or weeks. The coupled MesoNH/ForeFire code was used to represent the dynamics of fire generating pyro‐convective clouds. To advance the understanding of wildfire dynamics, high‐resolution coupled fire–atmosphere modeling was employed.

Influence of Region, Harvest Year, and Variety on Stable Isotope Characterization of Xinjiang Rice From China

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 21-30, December 2025.
Xinjiang rice isotopic differences were influenced by region, harvest year, variety, with southern rice had more positive δ13C, δ2H and δ18O values than northern. This study provides the first Xinjiang rice traceability data, aiding China's national rice database.
