Acquisitive root exploration strategies help maintain higher peak sap flux rates during summer drought, but more root biomass does not

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2933-2945, June 2026.
Summary Roots are responsible for soil water uptake, yet little is known about how variation in fine‐root traits relates to whole‐tree water movement, particularly during periods of drought. By combining a 3‐yr dataset monitoring sap flow rates with measures of fine‐root biomass, length, and morphology across 10 tree species, we addressed hypotheses ...

Landslide susceptibility mapping using a machine learning approach and different environmental factors in the Western Ghats region (India)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Landslide susceptibility mapping in India's Western Ghats using machine learning revealed high‐risk zones driven by deforestation, slope alteration and road proximity. The Random Forest model showed highest accuracy, supporting targeted mitigation, planning and early warning systems.

Geomorphological mapping of the Becca d'Aver deep‐seated gravitational slope deformation (Aosta Valley, Italy) based on multi‐scale and multi‐sensor analysis

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Geomorphological characterization of the DsGSD enables us to identify the sources of sediment that could be mobilized as debris flows. In the area, pseudo‐badlands morphotype has been defined and mapped, representing the main sources of risk beside abandoned quarry deposits.

Morphology of alluvial fans

, 2017
Alluvial fans are sedimentary deposits growing at the outlet of drainage areas. This position makes them valuable sedimentary records. Three key parameters determine their geometry: the water discharge, the sediment size and the sediment discharge. In this manuscript, based on three series of experiments, we quantify independently the influence of each

Research on Adaptive Irrigation Decision‐Making Method for the Entire Growth Cycle of Water Spinach Based on Reinforcement Learning

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
An environmentally enhanced proximal policy optimization (EN‐PPO) method is proposed for adaptive irrigation of water spinach across the full growth cycle. By integrating soil moisture, growth stage, rainfall, and evapotranspiration information, the method improves irrigation timing, water‐saving performance, and rainfall utilization while maintaining ...

Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.
