Land‐Use Shapes Soil Fungal Communities and Functional Guilds in Tropical Forest Ecosystems

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Land‐use change is a major cause of biodiversity loss and soil degradation in tropical regions. The role of soil fungi, including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), though critical, is often overlooked. AMF communities across cropland, disturbed forest, and undisturbed forest vegetation in southwestern Nigeria were relatively resilient to land‐use ...

Tree regeneration following natural disturbance and harvesting indicates challenges maintaining forest composition and tree species diversity in northern USA forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our work establishes that previously observed challenges in advance regeneration contribute to poor recovery following harvests and natural disturbances in northern USA forests. Shifts towards lower severity harvesting in the region may be exacerbating post‐disturbance regeneration challenges, ultimately leading to low tree species richness and novel ...

Deadwood for Recovery? Woody Debris Addition Did Not Accelerate Small Fauna Recovery After Major Flooding

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Periodic flooding is an intrinsic feature of floodplain ecosystems. The 2022–23 Murray River flood, the largest flood event in almost 70 years, inundated extensive floodplain areas on Calperum Station, South Australia. This depauperate vertebrate fauna community is the focus of restoration activities, including woody debris addition to ...

Of cables and threads

American Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 283-295, August 2026.
Abstract Over the past two decades, gondola lifts have become central to interventions in urban Latin America's auto‐constructed peripheries. As cable car urbanism reshapes the city's edge, it raises fundamental questions about the notion of the “urban fabric” as a sociomaterial practice, an epistemology, and a site of politics.
