Reproduction and Development in Calcareous Sponges: A Panorama of the Last Two Centuries

Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Nearly 200 years ago, scientists began examining reproductive cells in calcareous sponges (Calcarea, Porifera). Since then, 238 studies have been published, encompassing descriptions of gametes and embryos (including ultrastructural studies), life history, asexual reproduction, regeneration, and molecular aspects of development.

Linking regional and global functional trait data: insights from mammal communities in a fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.

“Cold Tropics”: Permafrost Existence and Thickness on Eastern Nevado Coropuna (Southern Peruvian Andes) Revealed by Ground‐Penetrating Radar and Geoelectrical Soundings

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 517-534, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.

Digitization connects scattered specimens and enables new historical research: Plants from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1087-1094, July 2026.
Widespread museum digitization initiatives have made the world's herbaria more accessible than ever, launching a renaissance of specimen use. We highlight the value of digitization to bolster both scientific and historical research using the specimens from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884) to the Canadian arctic, remembered for its tragedy ...

Potential patterns of fall armyworm seasonal migration in West Africa modeled with atmospheric trajectory analyses

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6509-6517, July 2026.
Migratory fall armyworms in West African breeding habitats showed clear seasonal movements: shifting southwest from January to May, turning northeast in June to July, and returning southwest from August to December. Abstract BACKGROUND The migratory invasive species fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, FAW) has established year‐round populations in ...

Riverine Migration Success of Salmonid Smolts Following Their Entrainment in a Hydropower Off‐Channel Diversion in an Upland River

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1272-1282, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Salmonid fishes typically express anadromy. During their juvenile riverine emigration, their downstream movements can be inhibited by hydropower schemes that entrain fish in their intakes. Here, the riverine migration success of smolts of brown trout Salmo trutta (“trout smolt”) and Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts (“salmon smolt”) was ...

Contrasting the synoptic drivers of the UK heatwaves of 1976, 2003, 2018 and 2022

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 212-221, July 2026.
UK summer heatwaves are dictated by the polar jet stream position and sea surface temperature (SST) variability, affecting the Summer North Atlantic Oscillation (SNAO) index. The SNAO can determine and influence the Central England Precipitation (CEP) and Central England Temperature (CET).

Climatological Characteristics and Atmospheric Circulation Associated With Three‐Dimensional Heat Wave Types in Middle Europe

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract A novel classification of three‐dimensional heat wave types is applied to Middle Europe over 1979–2022. Heat waves are classified according to their vertical structure of temperature anomalies in the ERA5 reanalysis into near‐surface (HWG), lower‐tropospheric (HWL), higher‐tropospheric (HWH), and omnipresent (HWO).

Assessing Dominant Uncertainties in Future Precipitation Projections for a Hurricane‐Prone Region

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Accurate projection of future precipitation remains challenging due to uncertainties in reference data sets, bias correction and global climate models (GCMs). Here, we evaluated these uncertainties across 13 major cities of the U.S. Gulf Coast, a hurricane‐prone region, under 192 historical and future scenarios.
