Human Disturbance but Not Predation Risk Is Associated With Increased Vigilance in Roe Deer

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 336-348, May 2026.
Roe deer vigilance is lower in natural than in modified habitats, decreases with group size, but is not significantly influenced by stable wolf presence, suggesting habitat‐driven risk perception and reliance on spatial avoidance over increased alertness.

Open-loop payment preferences in public transit: Exploring alternatives to cash for unbanked riders

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Transit providers in the US and abroad are adopting open-loop payments; these systems accept credit and debit cards as well as other digital forms of payment at boarding or fare gates and do not require an agency-specific card or app.

Demographic and Structural Variability Modulate Growth Dynamics in European Beech Primary Forests

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
Climate change is increasing drought and heat stress on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), causing widespread tree vitality losses and growth declines across Europe. Using a large tree ring network from montane primary beech forests, we found that trees of various ages and sizes respond differently to climate warming, leading to contrasting within ...

The enemy of my enemy: concomitant impacts of goat browsing on native vegetation during invasive plant control

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
The goal of invasive plant management is often to benefit native plants; however, the consequences of invasive plant management on native plants are not often assessed. While this is true generally for invasive plant management, it is particularly true for targeted grazing using livestock, such as goats, which is a rapidly expanding but little‐studied ...

Nutrition Status of Trees on Spoil Heaps After Coal Mining Can Be Inferred From Seasonal Dynamics of Foliar Nutrient Concentrations

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 7, Page 2583-2596, 30 April 2026.
ABSTRACT A stable vegetation cover on given habitat conditions can be one of the possible requirements for post‐mining sites, as it can prevent erosion and dustiness of these anthropogenic surfaces and bring several practical future benefits, such as biomass production and microclimate improvement.

Estimation of the Number of Nuisance Bears in the Oshima Peninsula, Hokkaido

Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 2, April 2026.
In this study, we aimed to estimate the number of nuisance bears based on damage and occurrence reports collected from 2009 to 2023 in the Oshima Peninsula, Hokkaido. For the estimation, we assessed the harmfulness level (from Condition 0 to 3) of the bears based on the details of the reports and developed a method to remove double or more overcounts ...

Functional and Phylogenetic Implications of Canopy Mesophication in Temperate Hardwood Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Mesophication describes the shifting of forests fire‐adapted systems to those dominated shaded‐adapted species, but the functional underpinnings of forest mesophication have received less quantitative testing. Using 20th century legacy datasets of changing forest composition in Wisconsin, USA, we characterized broad declines in drought tolerance, fire ...

Seed preferences of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae): Are there specialized trophic populations?

European Journal of Entomology, 2011
The populations of the firebug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae) in Europe exhibit three kinds of host plant associations: feeding on seeds of (1) Tilia spp. (Tiliaceae), (2) Malvaceae (s. str.), and (3) Robinia pseudacacia (Fabaceae). The
