Highly variable freshwater reservoir offsets found along the Upper Lena watershed, Cis-Baikal, southeast Siberia by Schulting, R, Ramsey, CB, Bazaliiskii, VI, Weber, A

“…In contrast to previous studies centered on Lake Baikal and the Angara River, human stable nitrogen isotope values show little or no correlation with the radiocarbon offset, despite the clear trophic differences seen in δ¹⁵N between terrestrial and aquatic sources of protein in the region's isotope ecology. However, stable carbon isotope measurements show a moderate negative correlation of some predictive value (r = −0.70, p = 0.016, df = 10). …”

Spatiotemporal assessment of water security in China: an integrated supply-demand coupling model by Liu, Bin, Zhang, Feilian, Qin, Xiaosheng, Wu, Zhe, Wang, Xiaolan, He, Yuanyuan

“…This is important to ensure China's own sustainable development goal. However, the ecological protection capacity was still highly insufficient, staying at an unsafe level for a long time; the security level of water resources and water ecology was still not optimistic and that of hydrological cycle was getting worse under the influence of human activities. …”

Global marine flyways identified for long-distance migrating seabirds from tracking data by Davies, T, Guilford, T

“…We visualised the routes of each cluster using a line density analysis and used knowledge of seabird spatial ecology to combine the clusters to identify the broad-scale flyways followed by most pelagic migratory seabirds tracked to-date at an ocean-basin scale.…”

Picophytoplankton of the Northeast U.S. Shelf: Community Composition and Dynamics by Stevens, Bethany Lynn Fowler

“…Predicting the response of marine ecosystems to these changes requires mechanistic knowledge of picophytoplankton ecology. This thesis uses a combination of long-term monitoring, cruise data, population models, and high-throughput sequencing to investigate the dynamics of picophytoplankton across scales of space and time that are relevant both to the physiology of the individual cells and to the structure of the Northeast U.S. …”

First record of multi-species synchronous coral spawning from Malaysia by Chelliah, Alvin, Amar, Halimi Bin, Hyde, Julian, Yewdall, Katie, Guest, James R., Steinberg, Peter David

“…Knowledge about the timing and synchrony of coral spawning has important implications for both the ecology and management of coral reef ecosystems. Data on the timing of spawning and extent of synchrony, however, are still lacking for many coral reefs, particularly from equatorial regions and from locations within the coral triangle. …”

Mosquito-borne diseases in urban East African Community region: a scoping review of urban typology research and mosquito genera overlap, 2000-2024 by Joseph, NK, Mumo, E, Morlighem, C, Macharia, PM, Snow, RW, Linard, C

“…Diverse definitions of urban landscapes emerged, emphasizing (i) distinct characteristics for dichotomous delineation from rural settings (e.g., population density) and (ii) urban-peri-urban continuum integrating spatial variations in urban features associated with MBDs (e.g., planned/unplanned neighbourhoods). Mosquito ecology data derived from 88 sites, comprising 45 urban, 25 peri-urban, 14 mixed settings and four slums, reported 91 mosquito species, including 32% Culex, 31% Aedes, and 25% Anopheles genera. …”
