Diurnal Variation in the Photosynthetic Traits of Sclerocarya birrea (Marula) Trees in North Namibia
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Sclerocarya birrea (marula) trees are important components of dry and semi‐dry African savanna environments due to their ecological and economical importance, including carbon storage. However, functional characteristics of these dioecious trees, such as their photosynthetic rates, remain largely unstudied.

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.In this study, we demonstrate that urbanization intensity reduces the abundance of stem galls on Turnera subulata, while increased vegetation cover and plant vigor promote higher occurrence and abundance. These findings highlight the importance of native vegetation in sustaining specialized insect‐plant interactions and provide evidence that plant ...

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Trees can redirect large volumes of rainwater to the base of their stems. This stemflow not only redistributes water but also channels canopy‐derived solutes to the forest floor. Building on research showing canopy geometry and bark properties govern stemflow volumes, we examined how those same traits modulate the biogeochemical side of this flux. Over

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.Using acoustic surveys, we investigated habitat use and diel activity patterns of insectivorous bats across the main land‐use types of the endemic‐rich Príncipe Island, in Central West Africa. We sampled bat activity at 48 sites spanning old‐growth forests, secondary regrowth forests, shaded cocoa plantations, and horticultural areas.

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.Extreme climatic events (ECEs) impact great tit nestlings in a developmental stage‐specific and context‐dependent manner. Using 60 years of data on 83,000+ great tit nestlings from Wytham Woods, UK, we show that cold snaps are detrimental to hatchlings, while older nestlings are more affected by extreme rain and heat.
