Vocabulary Strategy Instruction in the Argentine EFL Context: Teachers’ Perspectives and Practices

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on vocabulary strategy instruction (VSI), little has been known about teachers’ perspectives on how it is understood and implemented in practice. This study investigated Argentinian EFL teachers’ priorities in vocabulary instruction, their perceived knowledge of learner strategies for spoken vocabulary, and factors ...

Farm‐Scale Recharge Pits for Improving Local Groundwater Availability: Insights From a Hardrock Watershed in Rajasthan, India

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater depletion is a major challenge in semiarid, hard‐rock regions where irrigation demands often exceed natural recharge. This study evaluates the effectiveness of farm‐scale recharge pits as a local, supplementary, and community‐managed groundwater recharge solution in the Dharta catchment of Rajasthan, India. Alongside check dams and

Electric Field‐Induced Dark Current Steering in MAPbI3/Nb2CTx Photodetector Toward Weak‐Light Single‐Pixel Imaging

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In conventional photoconductive detectors, the shared collection path for dark current and photocurrent imposes a fundamental compromise between noise suppression and signal responsivity. To break this trade‐off, we introduce a device architecture featuring a strategically integrated third electrode within a MAPbI3/Nb2CTx heterostructure. This

贵州高原喀斯特环境退化过程土壤质量的生物学特性研究

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2003
通过研究比较不同植被类型下土壤中微生物区系、土壤酶活性和土壤生化作用强度,分析了贵州高原喀斯特环境退化演变过程中土壤质量的生物学特性变化过程。结果表明:随喀斯特环境退化程度加剧,土壤微生物总数下降,各主要生理类群数量呈下降趋势,土壤酶活性减弱,土壤生化作用强度降低,对环境反应敏感,可作为反映土壤质量的生物学指标。土壤微生物和酶活性是表征喀斯特环境退化演替过程中土壤质量的重要特征之一。

Land use overrides climatic controls on soil organic nitrogen transformations: Contrasting responsiveness between forest and cropland ecosystems

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2128-2142, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil organic nitrogen (SON) transformation is critical for global nutrient cycling and ecosystem productivity, yet how its responsiveness to climate change differs across diverse land use types remains poorly resolved.

Atom Probe Tomography‐Based Analysis of Residual Trace Elements in Advanced Metallic Materials

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Residual trace elements inherited from raw materials strongly influence the mechanical and environmental performance of advanced metallic alloys and recycling materials due to preferable boundary/interface segregation and resultant embrittlement effects, yet their parts per million level concentrations pose significant challenges to ...

From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1906-1920, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.
