Changes in Key Biodiversity Area networks following national comprehensive assessments
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Making comprehensive assessments of Key Biodiversity Area (KBA) networks in a country greatly increases their number and area. Countries that have not yet done so will be missing about half of these globally significant sites and missing the opportunity to get 30 × 30 conservation in the right places. Abstract Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites of

Ecology of bryophytes along altitudinal and latitudinal gradients in Chile [PDF]
, 2002 The bryophyte vegetation in twenty-eight hectare plots in forests of S-Chile between 38° and 42°S and sea level and the forest line has been studied. Since bryophytes are fully dependend on atmospheric water and nutrient supply, they are good indicators ...

Species Yet to Be Discovered Are More Threatened and Have Smaller Ranges
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To assess whether newly described species are more likely to be threatened and have smaller ranges than known species. Location Global. Methods In this study, we focus on the timing of species acceptance. We compare two global taxonomic assessments of birds, mammals and amphibians conducted approximately 10 years apart. Our approach allows

The Impact of Large‐Scale Land Surface Conditions on the South American Low‐Level Jet
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract The South American low‐level jet (SALLJ) is a major source of moisture transport to southeastern South America, influencing rainfall, agriculture, and hydropower. While past research emphasized atmospheric controls, we examine the role of antecedent soil moisture in modulating jet dynamics.

Threatened bryophytes of the neotropical rain forest : a status report [PDF]
, 1992 Tropical deforestation, inevitably, leads to the local loss of bryophyte species. Recent studies show that the degree of species loss may vary considerably and depends on the scale or amount of habitat change that has occurred.
