More than just a margin: Local and landscape‐scale factors regulating the effects of riparian forest buffers on stream‐riparian ecosystems in urban and agricultural landscapes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Riparian forest buffers support biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and food webs in human‐modified landscapes, and dampen land‐use and climate stressors (sediments, nutrients, thermal maxima), motivating their wider use in management. These outcomes were regulated by the presence or size of mostly small, mature buffers and sometimes by proximity among

Multi‐metric complexity drives ecological succession on blue‐green infrastructure across scales

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our findings demonstrate that restoring coastal habitat complexity can substantially improve ecosystem diversity and functioning, offering a scalable marine conservation approach within increasingly engineered seascapes. We highlight the need for multi‐metric, multi‐scale assessments of spatio‐temporal community formation on eco‐engineered ...

Decoupling of Taxonomic and Functional Recovery in a Multi‐Decadal Mixed Araucaria Forest Chronosequence

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how different biodiversity dimensions recover following disturbance is critical for interpreting forest successional trajectories. We examined this question in a protected remnant of Araucaria Mixed Forest (AMF) in subtropical southern Brazil, a frost‐prone montane system with multiple anthropogenic disturbance legacies.

Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 382-397, August 2026.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Evaluating use of extant species response to invasive predator control as an indicator of functional eradication to support species reintroductions

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
The removal of brown treesnakes resulted in an increase in the number of lizards already present that were counted in a treated area. We used this increase as a trigger to reintroduce three lizard species no longer present in the area, likely due to predation by the snake. Two out of those three species were found to have established. Abstract Invasive

Variable species establishment in response to microhabitat indicates different likelihoods of climate‐driven range shifts

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climate change is causing geographic range shifts globally, and understanding the factors that influence species' range expansions is crucial for predicting future biodiversity changes. A common, yet untested, assumption in forecasting approaches is that species will shift beyond current range edges into new habitats as they become macroclimatically ...
