`Our results highlight the value of multi-indicator approaches for detecting subtle physiological variation associated with plastic ingestion. Importantly, the pervasive threat of plastic pollution warrants investigating whether early-life exposure influences post-fledging survival and fitness.` http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoenv.2026.120628

“The Chiribiquete are table top mountains located deep in the Colombian Amazon and host many rare endemic species. Helanlin Xiang's work shows that the Chiribiquete Mountains likely upifted before the Early Miocene and could have acted as a long-lived stepping stone, connecting species in the Andes with the Guyana Shield…”

Nuclear watchdog ASN mentions that limits were raised, but the article does not mention those limits. I'll be keeping a watchful EYE 👁️ on this story (and see what I can dig up...!) (From 2023: France’s #NuclearPower stations to limit energy output due to high river temperatures
By Euronews Green with Reuters
Published on 13/07/2023"EDF is committed to adapting its facilities to #ClimateChange, a company spokesperson said. They added that since 2000, losses due to high river temperatures have represented an average drop of just 0.3 per cent of annual power production.
"The nuclear operator said previously a study it conducted showed last year's higher temperatures had no impact on biodiversity.
"However, a study conducted by French #nuclear watchdog #ASN saw a slight increase in #algae and #plankton growth around the #BugeyPlant during the #HeatWave. Fish populations were also affected through the autumn at the #SaintAlban plant.
"The watchdog stipulated it is currently impossible to distinguish the impact of the raised limits compared to the other #ecological effects of the #HeatWave, but it is continuing to monitor the river #biome."

Erdos et al. Biol. Rev. (2022): https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/brv.12889
A nice review on the drivers shaping the huge #Eurasian #forest-steppe by Erdos et al., emphasizing #Alternative #Biome States & #feedbacks (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2019.11.003, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2022.03.008)
