Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9266-9279, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.

Delineating gender/sex‐related studies through bibliometric analysis

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 77, Issue 8, Page 1015-1031, August 2026.
Abstract The multidisciplinary and socially grounded nature of Women's/Gender/Feminist Studies poses unique challenges for bibliometric analysis, as it extends beyond conventional disciplinary boundaries. This paper makes three key contributions: (1) We propose a novel retrieval method for constructing a corpus of scholarly documents in research areas ...

Field Margin Vegetation Structure Buffers Microclimate Extremes in Temperate Agricultural Landscapes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Tree‐rich field margins strongly buffered thermal extremes, lowering maximum and raising minimum temperatures compared to adjacent crop fields. Paired shielded and unshielded sensors showed how vegetation modifies thermal conditions and how measurement approach influences estimates of thermal buffering, supporting the potential role of treed margins as

Quality Assurance Framework for the Design, Collection and Curation of Standard Data Products From a Distributed Ecology Network

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Ecological data are increasingly collected by networks of collaborators using replicated designs and methods, which can significantly improve the quality and quantity of data throughout the ecological niche and geographic range of species or communities.

Western Bluebirds (Sialia mexicana) Use Public Information for Prospecting but Not Ultimate Nest Site Selection

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Prospecting Western Bluebirds demonstrated a strong response to public information simulating reproductive success within nest boxes deployed in agricultural systems, but this initial attraction did not translate to increased box selection the following breeding season.

Making Sense of the Bioeconomy: A Critical Analysis of EU Policy Narratives and Responses

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 1049-1064, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The bioeconomy has become an increasingly popular concept in European Union (EU) policy, promising sustainable growth, job creation, and reduced environmental impacts. Yet its meaning remains contested, ambiguous, and politically charged. This study critically examines how EU bioeconomy policy narratives prior to 2025 construct this concept ...

Biomass Carbon in Harvest Residues of Winter Oilseed Rape Across Fertilizer N Rates: Implications for Carbon Input Estimations in Soil Carbon Models

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 558-570, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background: Reliable estimation of carbon (C) inputs from above‐ and belowground residues at different yield levels is crucial, as these inputs drive soil organic carbon (SOC) models for C accounting. Aims: This study quantifies C inputs from different components of winter oilseed rape (WOSR) and compares them with estimates from various ...

Interaction Between Nitrogen Forms, Phosphorus Forms, and Mineral Phases Drives Phosphorus Limitation and Uptake by Ryegrass in a Model System

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 593-604, August 2026.
Nitrogen addition shifts plant nutrition from nitrogen to phosphorus (P) limitation. Nitrate‐based nitrogen enhances P acquisition more effectively than ammonium through increased phosphatase activity, independently of pH changes. Organic P forms induce stronger P limitation than inorganic P.

Climate Change and African Agricultural Resilience: A 10‐Year Comprehensive Review of Adaptive Capacity, Policy, and Environmental Stewardship

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In the current era, climate change has emerged as a fundamental threat to African agriculture, driven by increasingly erratic climatic patterns such as prolonged rainfall, decadal droughts, and escalating thermal stress. This review evaluates contemporary agricultural productivity by gathering and analyzing empirical data from academic ...

Degradable versus inert microplastics: Effects on soil organic carbon persistence via microbial drivers in an agroecosystem

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2628-2641, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems, raising global concerns that they may disrupt soil organic carbon (SOC) cycling and undermine agroecosystem contributions to climate mitigation.
