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.

Fit for purpose? Analysis of the relationship between skull, beak shape and feeding ecology in Psittaciformes

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 873-887, May 2026.
Psittaciformes exhibit high levels of morphological diversity, particularly in skull and beak structure, previously linked to diet and body size. Although there were some levels of significance between diet and beak shape, body mass was a much stronger co‐variate. Diet is not determining beak shape within the clade.

Sediment microbial communities in long‐term wetland restorations within the Prairie Pothole Region of the United States

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Hydrologic wetland restoration in the Prairie Pothole Region is a common management practice to facilitate habitat and ecosystem recovery after degradation or drainage. Little is known about the recovery of sediment microbial communities relative to other organisms, such as vegetation, fish, and macroinvertebrates, even though they are critical for ...

Tidal reinstatement of coastal wetlands: a global review

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetland restoration is a global priority due to its critical role in enhancing climate resilience and biodiversity. Tidal reinstatement, through the removal or modification of tidal barriers, is a promising method to restore these ecosystems.

Avifaunal diversity and conservation status of waterbirds in Pillaimadam Lagoon, Palk Bay, India

Journal of Threatened Taxa
Avifaunal surveys are important for developing targeted conservation strategies for specific sites and species, especially in undocumented critical wintering grounds for shorebirds within the Central Asian Flyway. In this context, we present a first-time avifaunal checklist at the Pillaimadam Lagoon, Ramanathapuram District, Tamil Nadu.
