Deep Learning for Satellite‐Based Forest Disturbance Monitoring: Recent Advances and Challenges

open access: yesWIREs Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
Overview of key research challenges in forest disturbance monitoring, including the detection of disturbances of varying severity, the attribution of disturbance agents, and the development of models capable of generalizing across regions. ABSTRACT Climate change and land use pressures are intensifying forest disturbances in many world regions, as ...

Native and exotic tree leaves contributions to formation of different soil organic matter pools

open access: yes, 2018
Deforestation around the world contributes to climate change and soil quality loss. The Atlantic Forest in Brazil has been deforested by 93%. Leaf litter from 16 native trees to the Atlantic Forest and Eucalyptus was decomposed in 14C soil and 3 soil ...

What Do Lithics Tell Us About Cultural Evolution? Insights From the Central African Record

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S3, Page S40-S49, June 2026.
ABSTRACT While Western historical narratives often incorporate a biased vision of human evolution—driven by a progressive view tied to a progressively evolving state of culture—this paper proposes combining archaeological lithic data with epistemological reflections to critique the modern regime of historicity, where progress is assumed as rational ...

Atmospheric dust is a global nutrient source for plants via foliar uptake

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2867-2883, June 2026.
Summary Atmospheric mineral dust is a critical nutrient supplier to marine ecosystems, but its role in terrestrial plant nutrition remains underexplored due to the assumption that nutrients are acquired solely from soils via roots. Here, we demonstrate that plants directly acquire nutrients from dust through leaves, revealing an unrecognized ...
