Efficacy of wheat straw biochar in alleviating salt stress under K‐fertigation via improved photosynthesis, water use efficiency and ion homeostasis in waxy maize. ABSTRACT K‐fertigation and soil amendment could ameliorate the adverse effects of saline stress on C4 crop physiology and performance, yet the underlying mechanisms remained largely elusive.

Directed Evolution of Plant‐Associated Bacteria Enhances Plant Holobiont Stress Tolerance
ABSTRACT Plant stress responses are shaped by both the plant genome and its associated microbial communities, which together form the plant holobiont. Given the rapid adaptive potential of plant‐associated microbes, we hypothesised that directed evolution under selective pressure can accelerate the development of holobiont‐level stress tolerance ...

Why April Stands Out: Monthly Impacts of Internal Variability on Arctic Amplification
Abstract Observed Arctic amplification (AA), defined as the ratio of Arctic‐mean to global‐mean surface air temperature (SAT) trends, peaks in April, a feature not captured by climate models. Here, we quantify the impact of internal variability on Arctic‐mean SAT trends in March, April, and May from 1980 to 2022 using multiple approaches, including ...

Chemical activation of porous carbon extracted from biomass combustion bottom ash for CO2 adsorption
Adsorption of CO2 by solid sorbents has been proposed as a pathway to decrease the emissions associated with combustion of fuels. However, if employing the waste residues of the combustion process (e.g. biomass combustion bottom ash), a pathway towards a

Comparative Performance of Kenyan and Imported Artemia in Early Larval Rearing of Clarias gariepinus
ABSTRACT Successful larval rearing of fish depends largely on live feed availability, during the critical first‐feeding stage. In Kenya, hatcheries commonly use phytoplankton or imported Artemia cysts as starter feeds, although locally produced Artemia is available. Hatchery operators' reports on low larval survival when using imported Artemia prompted

Can DNA from wet, temperate soils be used for palaeoecological reconstruction?
ABSTRACT Sedimentary ancient DNA in well‐dated contexts (sedaDNA) has great potential as a palaeoecological proxy. A few studies have attempted palaeoecological reconstructions using sedaDNA from soil; these studies have been mainly restricted to cold and/or dry soils.

The downward legacy of a phytoplankton bloom in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
Abstract Ocean particles are a heterogeneous collection, including living and dead cells, feces, mucus‐rich aggregates, and mineral shells and frustules. In the well‐lit upper ocean, phototrophic processes fuel production of particulate matter; however, only a relatively small percentage (< 10% per day) of this material (mostly detrital) escapes the ...
