Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Understanding how variation in key abiotic and biotic factors interact at ecologically relevant spatial scales is crucial for predicting population dynamics, distributions, and abundances. This is especially true for vectors that transmit human pathogens.

Impact of Sahelian Climate Variables on Solar Photovoltaic Output
Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 10, Page 4891-4909, October 2026.ABSTRACT Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy is a critical pathway for advancing the energy transition in the Sahel. However, PV module performance in this region is strongly constrained by extreme climatic conditions. This study investigates the effects of (1) wind speed, (2) relative humidity, (3) temperature, (4) dust deposition, and (5) solar irradiance

Buildings as accidental habitat: Where animals nest, sleep and forage
People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3531-3551, October 2026.Abstract Animals have long inhabited human buildings alongside us, but our understanding comes from isolated studies, such as reports of a possum in the roof or a bat in our walls. What we lack is the building's perspective: which building features actually serve as habitat and for whom?

When Winters Fail: How Warming Winters Fuel Pest Resurgence and Threaten Food Security
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata, Wiedemann; Diptera: Tephritidae), commonly known as the Medfly, re‐emerged in Mazandaran province, northern Iran—home to an estimated 25% of the nation's fruit crops and approximately 80% of its citrus production—following its apparent eradication in 1984, an outcome consistent with several ...

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 8018-8057, October 2026.ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract High temperatures pose a serious threat to human health. Quantifying the main disease death burden attributable to high temperatures can provide scientific evidence for policy development. Using Global Burden of Disease 2021 data, we identified the death burden attributable to high temperatures across all causes and determined the three ...

Dispersed Urban Expansion Amplifies Land Surface Evapotranspiration Loss
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract The expansion of impervious surfaces (IS) substantially modifies urban water cycles and local climate regimes by suppressing evapotranspiration (ET), thereby affecting the sustainability of human settlements. However, most existing studies have emphasized the effects of IS quantity or coverage, while it remains unclear how different spatial ...

Projected Exposure of Canadian Children to Rare, High‐Severity Heatwaves Under Continued Warming
GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Extreme heat is intensifying under climate change and poses disproportionate risks to children, yet Canadian children’s lifetime exposure to rare, high‐severity heatwaves remains poorly quantified at high spatial resolution. We estimate lifetime heatwave exposure across Canada under four local warming categories using bias‐corrected ...

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Urban areas are unique in form, function, and fabric, and representing them in process‐based models requires, among other things, prescribing facet‐level morphological and radiative properties, which vary widely. Most urban canopy models (UCMs) prescribe these by density class or local climate zone (LCZ), assigning identical values across ...
