Understanding higher‐order aberrations in keratoconus

open access: yesOptometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Keratoconus is characterized by progressive thinning and increasing irregularity of the cornea, leading to substantial degradation in optical quality through the induction of both lower‐ and higher‐order aberrations (HOAs). In addition to inducing myopic and astigmatic refractive error, asymmetric corneal steepening generates complex optical ...

Design and Deployment of a Regulation‐Compliant Infrared Heating System for UK Field Trials

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Free‐air warming systems are essential for simulating climate change in field conditions, yet most are not designed to meet UK or EU health and safety standards. We present the design and field deployment of a hexagonal temperature‐free air controlled enhancement (T‐FACE) system that meets UK and EU health and safety requirements for outdoor ...

Influence of Contained Cold Plasma Processing on Multi‐Species Sward Seeds Germination and Plant Growth Performance Properties

open access: yesPlasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
Cold plasma pretreatment was applied to selected multi‐species sward (MSS) seeds of six different seeds comprising grasses (ryegrass and timothy), herbs (chicory and plantain), and legumes (red clover and white clover), and their germination percentage and seedling characteristics were compared with untreated samples.

The Cost of Self‐Sufficiency: Could New Zealand be Self‐Sufficient in Food Consumption?

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2026.
Ensuring that New Zealand can sustainably meet its future food needs requires an understanding of the interaction between domestic demand trends, trade and the capacity of national production systems. Although New Zealand is a major exporter of dairy, meat, fruit and other primary products, rising food insecurity, changing dietary preferences and ...

Foraging energetics reveals late‐summer challenges for pollinators across two British cities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3200-3212, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Foraging bees often work within fine energetic margins, but recent work has shown that foraging conditions can vary markedly across the year. Despite the importance of seasonality for pollinator foraging, most work in this area has relied on indirect approaches. However,
