Monte Carlo modeling of drum milling of staple fiber canvas and applications of ground basalt or glass fibers

Results in Materials
This work systematically investigated the fiber grinding process in extruders and drum mills, developed a simple mathematical model describing fiber grinding in drum mills, and employed Monte Carlo simulations to analyze this process.

Organ‐specific terpenoid responses in Tanacetum vulgare are chemotype‐dependent

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Common tansy varieties defend differently: some boost root chemicals against soil pests, while others release stronger leaf scents against aphids. Abstract Specialized metabolites such as terpenoids are known to mediate plant defence mechanisms. However, how terpenoid diversity governs inducible chemistry across organs remains poorly understood.

Varying effects of stream restoration on riparian soil carbon persistence and methane emissions in the southern Rocky Mountains, United States

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Channel incision can disconnect streams from their floodplains, potentially depleting carbon (C) in riparian soils by stimulating microbial decomposition. Stream restoration may offer an opportunity to replenish soil C pools by saturating riparian soils with water and slowing microbial activity.

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.
