Demographic Momentum and Fertility Responses to Pronatalist Policies: The Case of Ethnic Minorities in Russia

Population, Space and Place, Volume 32, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Russia's Maternal Capital policy initially increased total fertility rates, stimulating much discussion on whether it would result in more births or only earlier births. Effects of that policy upon different ethnic groups within Russia, however, have not received systematic attention.

Breaking the Temporal Resolution Barrier: Projected Performance of Hybrid Gravity Satellite Ensemble by the Early 2030s

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Limitations in the temporal resolution of contemporary gravity satellite missions hinder the precise monitoring of rapid Earth surface mass changes. By the early 2030s, unprecedented high‐temporal monitoring of Earth's dynamic mass redistribution will be available using the temporal gravity field derived from the Hybrid Gravity Satellite ...

Initial stages of two Neolithisation models in the Lower Volga basin

Documenta Praehistorica, 2016
In this paper, two groups of ancient sites located in the Lower Volga River basin are analysed. The first group is linked to the emergence of the oldest pottery in this region, which is one of the most ancient in Europe.

Tracing the Hotspots of Global Methane Footprint in Emerging Economies

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The 2024 Global Economic Prospects report by the International Monetary Fund highlighted the crucial role of emerging economies in driving global economic growth. Due to their active participation in global supply chains, these emerging economies generate large amounts of methane emissions to supply the required products to the global economy.

Scale Effect on Evapotranspiration: Predicting the Continental and Global Scale Water Balance Based on Percolation Theory and Optimality Principle

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Moisture recycling over the continents, which is known to increase with increasing spatial scale, increases both precipitation and sensible heat fluxes without increasing the overall latent heat flux, implying a reduction in evapotranspiration (ET) with increasing spatial scale. One may hypothesize that the architecture of plant/ecosystem root

Genomic Insights Into Diversity, Phylogeny, Hybridization and Evolutionary History of Palearctic Fish Genus Rutilus (Leuciscidae)

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Using a widely distributed and frequently hybridising fish (genus Rutilus) in the Palearctic as a model system, we re‐evaluated a series of hypotheses on phylogeny, taxonomy, phylogeography and the role of hybridization in evolutionary history based on the first large‐scale analyses of nuclear SNPs together with mtDNA data obtained from ...

Modelling migratory waterfowl stopover habitat while accounting for ephemeral environmental conditions

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2941-2953, November 2025.
We demonstrated the potential of phenological synchronization to estimate fine‐scale ephemeral environmental conditions crucial for migratory species. Modelled habitats revealed key stopover sites in both natural and agricultural landscapes. The maps showed gaps in the protected area network of Eurasian grasslands, especially in agriculture.

The Role of the Middle East in the Biogeographical Dispersal of Host‐Specific Parasites: Monogeneans and Their Cyprinoid Fish Hosts

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim This study investigates the diversity and phylogeny of Dactylogyrus species in the Middle East, as well as uncovers the historical dispersal routes and biogeographical contacts of cyprinoid host species using their host‐specific parasites. Location The Middle East. Taxon Dactylogyrus (Dactylogyridae: Monogenea), Cyprinoidei (Cypriniformes).
