1. The paradox of persistence: island species as models for conservation.
PMID:日期:2026-09-22Species on islands frequently experience founder events and population bottlenecks and are often subject to disturbances that further reduce population sizes. Despite these challenges, some island lineages persist for millennia-the paradox of persistence. Here, we synthesize genomic studies across island systems and show that reported effective population sizes are frequently below 100, but assessments of genetic load and its temporal dynamics remain uncommon. We show that island systems can offer critical insights into how small populations maintain viability and adaptive potential. Future research on genomic erosion needs to broaden taxonomic and geographic coverage, leverage temporal genomic data, and integrate demographic and fitness-based approaches to link evolutionary resilience on islands with the conservation of increasingly fragmented populations worldwide.

2. How will complex life cycles respond to increasing environmental variability?
PMID:日期:2026-09-16In complex life cycles that include a transition from aquatic to terrestrial habitat, life stages experience very different effects of environmental variability (e.g., precipitation vs. temperature). But stages do not evolve independently, constraining adaptive responses to stage-specific effects. Faced with these constraints, species often shift the timing of metamorphosis to minimize time in the stage-and habitat-experiencing the greatest fitness costs. Currently, however, we have limited understanding of how such life-cycle shifts affect phenotypic evolution within stages, fitness trade-offs across stages, and population demography. Resolving these effects will inform how many animals respond to climate change, but requires deeper understanding of the causes and consequences of phenotypic, developmental, and fitness trade-offs across complex aquatic/terrestrial life cycles.

3. Fundamental and realised behaviours structure geographic variation in ecological assemblages.
PMID:日期:2026-09-10Animal behaviours shape ecological dynamics, from species distributions to ecosystem function. These dynamics emerge from the behaviours of multiple interacting species, which reflect both the available species pool and local environmental conditions. By taking an assemblage-scale approach, we add a new dimension to reveal how and why behaviour varies geographically and with what consequences. We distinguish between fundamental behaviours, a species' full repertoire, and realised behaviours, the filtered subset expressed locally. This framework provides the foundation for understanding geographic variation in assemblage-level behaviours, guiding development of testable predictions about how environmental gradients structure behavioural expression across space, with the potential to identify consequences for ecosystem function and behaviourally mediated vulnerabilities under global change.

4. Configuring tree planting and forest restoration for climate adaptation.
PMID:日期:2026-09-10Climate warming can threaten biodiversity and trigger warming-related disturbances. Increasing tree cover in a landscape is recognized as a measure for cooling and moisture retention under certain conditions, but the role of its configuration-the spatial pattern of tree cover for a given amount-remains poorly understood. Building on recent evidence, we propose that the configuration of planted trees or restored forest in the landscape can influence the effectiveness of warming adaptation measures. We hypothesize that planting trees or restoring forests in a more fragmented configuration increases microclimatic refugia, reduces warming exposure for open- and edge-habitat species, and limits warming-related disturbances. We also hypothesize that a less fragmented configuration creates fewer but cooler microclimatic refugia and mitigates negative warming effects on patch-interior species.

5. Which rescue to the rescue? Disentangling demographic, evolutionary, and genetic rescue.
PMID:日期:2026-09-09Many populations face increasing extinction risk, but persistence can occur via 'rescue', defined as an increase in population growth rates or abundance that lowers extinction probability. Such rescue manifests as demographic rescue (immigration offsetting vital rate declines), evolutionary rescue (adaptive response to selection), or genetic rescue (gene flow introducing beneficial genetic variation). We emphasize that rescue is a population-level outcome, not a management strategy, and the three rescue types are not mutually exclusive; for example, gene flow could lead to demographic, genetic, and evolutionary rescue. Understanding the interactions within and among these types of rescue and balancing immediate demographic gains with long-term adaptive potential is crucial for developing effective management actions tailored to diverse taxa and changing ecological contexts.

6. Human, natural, and artificial intelligence in forest restoration.
PMID:日期:2026-09-07Forest restoration has to move beyond attempts to rebuild complex ecosystems and instead focus on creating the conditions for their self-organization. Artificial intelligence can support this transition by expanding human capacity to navigate complexity, but if applied uncritically, it could reinforce the very biases it is intended to overcome.

7. Succession as a unifying model of ecosystem ecology and conservation.
PMID:日期:2026-08-25Succession is a fundamental concept in ecology because it provides perspectives on how ecosystems change over time and respond following disturbance. It is also a useful concept for conservation and restoration because human activity has increased the frequency and magnitude of disturbances globally. Ecosystem ecology offers a unique perspective on succession because it views dynamics through the lens of process-based currencies-such as net ecosystem production-that subsume multiple simultaneous properties of energy and nutrient flow, thereby providing a useful measure with which to monitor and anticipate net change. Studying succession through these perspectives reveals fundamental patterns that unify central principles of ecosystem ecology and provide a predictive model on which to base conservation and restoration efforts.

8. Evolutionary spandrels in collective animal behaviour.
PMID:日期:2026-08-24Collective behaviour is widespread in the animal kingdom and can enhance individual fitness. Yet not all collective behaviours are adaptations. Instead, some may be nonadaptive or 'evolutionary spandrels'-traits that originated as by-products in the sense proposed by Stephen Jay Gould and Richard Lewontin. Here, we argue that self-organising processes provide a route through which evolutionary spandrels in collective animal behaviour can occur, and we provide three examples: spatial organisation in primate groups, division of labour in ants, and insect chorusing. We then consider how such outcomes may be co-opted into adaptive roles through exaptation and conclude by outlining the challenges associated with testing adaptive and nonadaptive hypotheses in collective behaviour research using individual-based studies, phylogenetic comparative analyses, and agent-based models.

9. Rare events and their role in ecological dynamics.
PMID:日期:2026-08-24Rare events are low-frequency environmental events whose magnitude and ecological consequences can vary across ecosystems. In this review, we clarify the terminology used to describe these anomalies and propose a statistical definition that disentangles environmental rarity and magnitude from ecological impact. Rare events generate a wide range of responses, from population declines and ecosystem reorganisation to neutral or even positive demographic outcomes. Exceptionally intense perturbations potentially dominate ecological outcomes regardless of their rarity. More commonly, however, their influence on long-term dynamics emerges from the joint effects of magnitude and return interval, such that less extreme but more frequent perturbations could contribute more consistently to population trajectories than rarer events. Long-term demographic studies are essential to identify how rare events shape ecological dynamics.
