Low breeding propensity in a declining Arctic‐breeding swan revealed by telemetry data
Ibis, EarlyView.Many migratory bird populations are declining in the face of habitat degradation and climate change, making it important to identify which stages of their annual cycle are most affected in order to guide conservation measures. The Bewick's Swan Cygnus columbianus bewickii, an Arctic‐breeding waterfowl species, has suffered a dramatic population decline

Monitoring mercury across the National Wildlife Refuge System using a biosentinel approach
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.We measured mercury concentrations in 1,356 dragonfly larvae collected from 30 National Wildlife Refuges across the United States and found wide variability among refuges, spanning the full range reported for other protected lands. Using a management‐focused mercury impairment index, 80% of refuges contained sites classified as moderate or higher risk.

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.
