Delving in the Deep—Dominance of Non‐Native Species in Benthic Fish Assemblages in the Fragmented Large River Ecosystem of the Austrian Danube

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT River fragmentation through channelization and the construction of dams has strongly altered river ecosystems, leading to declines in native fish species and the proliferation of non‐natives. Knowledge gaps still exist about the effects of fragmentation on the structure of ecological assemblages throughout all habitats in large, fragmented ...

Taxonomic inflation in fish systematics: A critical review with illustrative evidence assessment and integrative case study of the Salmo trutta Complex

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 1360-1378, September 2026.
Abstract Fish species are being described at an accelerating rate, but a substantial fraction of recent descriptions rests on evidentiary standards too weak to distinguish genuine species‐level discontinuities from intraspecific variation, local adaptation and the artefacts of single‐marker analyses, a pattern of taxonomic inflation with documented ...

Russia's Strategic Paradox: Short‐Term Gains, Long‐Term Risks from the Iran War

Middle East Policy, Volume 33, Issue 3, Autumn (Fall) 2026.

The Shrinking Caspian Sea: Eco‐Hydrological Responses to Human and Climate Pressures

Earth's Future
The Caspian Sea, the Earth's largest inland water body, faces water level decline, drawing comparisons to the collapse of the Aral Sea. Unlike the Aral Sea, the relative roles of climatic variability, hydrological changes, and anthropogenic pressures on ...

The Impact of Russia–Ukraine War in Maritime Data

The World Economy, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 1907-1923, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study analyses weekly port calls from 2019 to 2026 to evaluate the Russia–Ukraine war's impact on maritime trade. The data reveals clear structural shifts that Ukrainian traffic moved from high‐risk areas like Odesa to safer Danube River ports.

Positive Association Between Coastal Sea Surface Temperatures and Humid Heat Stress on Nearby Land

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Large populations along Earth's coastlines are exposed to climate hazards including extreme humid heat. Considering observed coastal ocean warming and increased coastal marine heatwave (MHW) activity, we seek to uncover if, how, and where coastal ocean temperatures are linked with heat and humidity on land nearby.
