Abstract Mountain social–ecological systems encompass steep ecological gradients and diverse cultural practices, yet the relative roles of these factors in shaping mountain landscapes remain underexplored. In particular, the knowledge and practices of women in coproducing biocultural landscapes are often invisible in the academic literature. In the Ait

Our results highlight that prescribed burning in sub‐Mediterranean pine forests does not affect their resistance to PPM in the short term, either positively or negatively, indicating that it can be implemented to reduce wildfire hazard without influencing forest susceptibility to future PPM outbreaks.

Modeling of water infiltration in hydrophobic‐over‐wettable two‐layer columns
Abstract This paper presents a new piecewise model for simulating one‐dimensional infiltration curves in two‐layer finite columns consisting of a hydrophobic layer overlaying wettable soil. The model combines a physics‐based equation for infiltration in water‐repellent substrates with an analytical framework for ponded conditions.

Mixing oak and pine trees in Mediterranean forests increases aboveground hydraulic dysfunctions
Mixing oak and pine trees enhances hydraulic impairments of all species, although diversity can mitigate drought stress during extended drought periods. Abstract Increasing tree species diversity in Mediterranean forests could reduce drought‐induced hydraulic impairments through improved microclimate and reduced competition for water.

Optimized use of UV‐B light to suppress Western flower thrips in controlled environment tomato crops
Visual representation of study into the use of UV‐B light to simultaneously attract and suppress Western flower thrips in controlled environment crops. Abstract BACKGROUND LEDs (light emitting diodes) are being deployed in controlled environment crop production systems to boost crop growth, manipulate pest behavior, improve performance of natural ...
