Temporal changes in the dietary niche of sympatric seals provides insight into the role of competition in population declines

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Competition theory suggests that interspecific prey competition can result in changes to the dietary niche, but obtaining timeseries of data from sympatric species experiencing temporal variation in competition is challenging. Scotland is an important area for two species of seals, but over the past 20 years, populations of harbour seals Phoca vitulina

Exploring Potential Mechanisms for the Initiation of Solifluction Patterns

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Hillslopes in arctic regions commonly display large‐scale features—known as solifluction patterns—that form due to the exceedingly slow downhill movement of frost‐heaved soil. Here we use a combination of remote sensing data, linear stability analysis, numerical modeling, and review of a wide range of literature to evaluate several working ...

‘I Put a Lot of Emotion in My Work, I Use It, It's My Tool’: An Ethnographic Account of Algorithmic Homecare Assistance in the Netherlands

open access: yesSociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper explores how the introduction of AI‐powered remote technologies reconfigures emotional practices in homecare. Drawing on three months of ethnographic fieldwork and in‐depth interviews with a Dutch company that replaces in‐house nurses with remote monitoring systems and nonmedically trained ‘coaches’, the authors analyse the ...

Serendipitous ritualization: dynamics of lay connectivity in Chinese Buddhist temples and beyond Ritualisation fortuite : dynamique de la connectivité des laïques dans les temples bouddhistes chinois et au‐delà

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 390-411, June 2026.
This article contributes to rethinking the dichotomy between informal sociality and ritual formality by examining the occasional ritual encounters surrounding spirit‐tablet inscription in Chinese Buddhist temples. Rather than viewing rituals as enactments of established orders, it presents ritual engagement as a contingent process of relational ...

Interplay of crop diversity and agricultural area in agroecosystem services: Analytical and empirical study on local water quality

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 149-169, June 2026.
Abstract This study expands the framework for analyzing the interplay of agricultural area and crop diversity on agroecosystem services by incorporating the species‐area relationship concept from biology. We estimate panel fixed effects models that include both agricultural area and crop diversity, along with their interaction term.

A review of participatory mapping in conservation science and practice

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
There has been a recent increase and diversification in the use of participatory mapping in the field of conservation, however, methodological standards remain both disjointed and confounding. We conducted a comprehensive review of the conservation participatory mapping literature and synthesized geographical, temporal, and topical trends across a ...
