Long‐term vegetation changes in elephant‐related areas of concern in Kruger National Park, South Africa

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract African elephants, whether alone or in combination with other environmental factors such as floods, droughts, fire, and other herbivores, have significant impacts on large savanna trees, often contributing to declines over time. However, their effects on woody vegetation in general remain less well understood.

Clashing in Murky Waters: On Amphibian Mosquito Suppression

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study compares the predator efficiency of common European amphibian species to common invertebrate mosquito predators. Focusing on the cosmopolitan mosquito Culex pipiens, known for transmitting pathogens like West Nile virus, we assessed predator rates, sex‐specific efficiency in amphibians, and the impact of predator presence on mosquito ...
