Source or Sink? Precipitation Shapes Future Terrestrial Carbon Uptake in Australia

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Nature‐based CO2 removal must deliver sequestration beyond background terrestrial uptake and be resilient to future climate change. Regional‐scale simulations of future terrestrial carbon cycles are needed to establish baselines, map spatial variation in carbon uptake, and guide placement of nature‐based carbon removal projects.

A Constrained‐Regression Machine Learning Model for Predicting Future Natural Land‐Cover Composition From Climate Projections

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Predicting future vegetation patterns from climate change projections is central to assessing ecological impacts, but most existing climate–vegetation models predict coarse biome classes rather than fine‐grained land cover. Here we develop a constrained regression approach that predicts local land cover composition (LLCC)—the fractional cover ...

Mass‐Conserving LSTM With Dual States for Streamflow Prediction: Separating Quickflow and Slow Storage

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract We introduce a Mass‐Conserving Long Short‐Term Memory with Dual States (MC‐LSTM‐DS) with the intention of separating short‐ and long‐term memory for predicting streamflow. It enforces water balance through a new partition gate on precipitation.

Assessing JULES Across Bioclimatic Domains Through a Pan‐African Flux Tower Evaluation: Insights Into Controls on Gross Primary Productivity, Ecosystem Respiration, and Evapotranspiration Biases

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Land surface models are fundamental for simulating coupled carbon, water and energy exchanges in Earth system models, yet their performance remains poorly constrained across Africa's diverse hydroclimatic gradients. We evaluate the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) using eddy covariance observations from 16 flux towers spanning major

Varying hydraulic strategies within leaves, stems and roots of coexisting desert shrubs

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3276-3295, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Effective and continuous root‐to‐leaf hydraulic transport is crucial for plant survival and growth during drought. However, the capacity to resist hydraulic dysfunction remains understudied in leaves and roots, especially for desert shrubs.

Bat community assembly in the ecotone of two neotropical biodiversity hotspots is determined by environmental filtering rather than historical factors

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 10, Page 2050-2062, October 2026.
We demonstrate that environmental filtering is the primary mechanism shaping bat communities across the Cerrado–Atlantic Forest ecotone. By integrating phylogenetic diversity, environmental gradients, and coevolutionary assembly models, our study provides new insights into the processes maintaining biodiversity in a globally important transition zone ...

Can landscape management provide disease regulation services? A case study of Brazilian spotted fever incidence

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 10, October 2026.
Policy implications. Our results can help prioritize surveillance strategies and the implementation of preventive measures, particularly in areas where landscape structures cannot provide disease regulation services. Landscape management actions aimed at increasing the amount of forest areas in a more aggregated manner could help restore those ...

Multifunctional Rhizobacterial Consortia Enhance Growth and Yield of Common Bean Across Field Conditions

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Consortia of plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) enhance the growth and development of common bean plants, improving root system development, nutrient use efficiency and grain yield. These bioinputs reduce dependence on mineral fertilizers and support eco‐efficient agriculture, offering a sustainable alternative in diverse soil and climate ...

Context‐engineering large language models for scalable structured metadata extraction in ecological literature reviews

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 10, Page 3006-3018, October 2026.
Abstract Hundreds of thousands of peer‐reviewed articles and grey‐literature reports appear each year in ecology and conservation, creating a pressing need for scalable synthesis tools. We demonstrate that transformer‐based Large Language Models (LLMs), when embedded within a practical, expert‐in‐the‐loop pipeline, offer a reliable path forward ...
