Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.

Great Meteor Seamount Circulation Revisited: Insights Into Cold‐Water Coral Habitat Potential
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Seamounts play a crucial role in shaping deep‐sea ecosystem structure, influencing ocean circulation, enhancing biological productivity, and supporting diverse marine life. The Great Meteor Seamount (GMS), is the largest seamount in the North Atlantic and a key ecological feature in the regional network of the Protected Areas of the Azores ...

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Proxy records of seawater radiocarbon (14C/C) provide strong constraints on how changes in ocean ventilation contributed to the increase in atmospheric CO2 during the termination of the last ice age (≈18,000‐to‐12,000 years ago). One outstanding problem, however, is the existence of anomalously low deglacial benthic foraminiferal 14C/C in the ...

Effects of temperature and browning on the functional response of a freshwater top predator
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 824-836, May 2026.This study explores for the first time how temperature and browning affect the functional response of a freshwater piscivore, the northern pike. The authors find surprisingly weak effects of browning, challenging visual foraging theory. Pike displayed a rare dome‐shaped functional response in cold clear water, potentially driven by seasonal changes in ...

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.This study combines literature and online data sources to expand the smalleye stingray's range, highlight ecological interactions and specific threats. Abstract Many chondrichthyan fishes are experiencing alarming population declines primarily due to overfishing, exacerbated by their inherently vulnerable life history traits including slow growth rates

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Colour Polymorphism in Coconut Crabs Is Under Relaxed Selection From Conspecifics?
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 359-364, May 2026.Coconut crabs are either red or blue irrespective of age or sex, are nocturnal and have very few predators. This experimental study shows that they do not use conspecific's colour but do use relative size to settle competitive interactions over food in the wild.
