Dry‐Season Water Deficits in the Southwestern Amazon Under High Emissions

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Projected climatic water deficit in the study region indicates a longer and more intense dry season, with delays in the onset of the wet season under higher emission scenarios. These changes, particularly, pronounced under SSP5‐8.5, suggest increased ecological vulnerability and greater seasonal water stress.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Identification and optimization of urban wetland ecological networks in highly urbanized areas: A case study of Haidian District, Beijing

Ecological Indicators
With the rapid development of urbanization, urban wetlands have been severely damaged by human activities and natural factors, leading to problems such as reduced area and decreased connectivity between wetlands.

Predicted genetic consequences of alternative population control strategies for North American plains bison in Yellowstone National Park

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Management of bison in Yellowstone National Park under the available strategies that maintained ≥3,500 individuals (1:1 sex ratio), removed <40% of the population at a time and prioritized relatives for removal were predicted to maintain genetic variation at levels consistent with long‐term conservation (>95% of existing variation).

Spatial and temporal variation in survival of female wild turkeys

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We monitored 370 female wild turkeys across North Carolina's 3 ecoregions from 2020‐2022 to understand factors influencing their survival. Female survival varied by ecoregion and behavior state, with the incubation period having the lowest survival rates. None of the land cover variables affected survival.

Comparing autumn duck use of intensely managed wetlands in Michigan using a novel approach

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Camera traps, a relatively novel method for assessing waterfowl use of wetlands, show ducks in southeastern Michigan are influenced by hunting disturbance, vegetation type, season progression, and diel period. Abstract Socioeconomic value derived from duck hunting has contributed to autumn habitat use becoming a particular focus for the natural ...

Aquatic and Littoral Successions in Various Post‐Mining Sites—Patterns and Possible Use in Ecological Restoration

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...

Spatiotemporal Fire Patterns and Post‐fire Forest Change in Peru (2000–2021)

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire is increasingly more frequent and severe in many tropical regions, leading to significant forest loss, diminished biodiversity, and reduced Nature's contributions to people (NCPs). In this study, we analyzed the spatiotemporal patterns of fire in Peru and its regions, focusing on: (1) burned area, (2) size, and (3) number of fires, using ...
