Turning Water to Wine: An Analysis of Texas Wine Industry Water Management

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Texas wine industry is expanding in scale and reputation during a period when sustainability concerns are increasingly visible and valuable to grape growers and wine producers in Texas. Most vineyard hectarage in Texas is in the High Plains and Hill Country American Viticultural Areas (AVAs), which rely on regional aquifers for water. With

Smart Sensor‐Integrated Lysimeter System for Affordable on‐Farm Crop Water Monitoring and Irrigation Management

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate monitoring of crop water use is critical for precision irrigation, yet conventional lysimeter systems remain too costly and complex for widespread adoption. This study presents the development and field validation of a low‐cost, information and communication technology (ICT)‐enabled weighing lysimeter system that integrates load cells,

Teaching of Engine‐Driven Root Canal Treatment Globally—A “Questionnaire Based” Study

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The teaching of root canal therapy, particularly engine‐driven root canal preparation, varies across dental schools. Therefore, this qualitative, questionnaire‐based study aimed to identify preferred engine‐driven endodontic systems at top‐ranked dental universities and to explore the reasons behind their selection.

Refinement of the Quaternary seismic stratigraphy and analysis of buried glacial channels on the Labrador Shelf

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Laurentide Ice Sheet covered vast areas of North America during the Wisconsinan, including the Labrador Shelf, off the coast of eastern Canada. The shelf is characterized by glacial cross‐shelf troughs, which have been considered as predominantly eroded by the last ice advance.

Zooarchaeology of Houses and Middens: Investigating Patterns of Assemblage Composition at Early Inuit Sites Across the North American Arctic

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines faunal assemblages from paired semisubterranean houses and middens at 10 Early Inuit sites spanning the North American Arctic (ca. 1200–1500 ce) to evaluate whether local resource bases or other factors primarily structure zooarchaeological variability.

Biogeography and community stability of leaf endophytic diazotrophs in mangrove Kandelia obovata

Communications Biology
The leaf endosphere hosts diazotrophs vital for plant health and ecosystem resilience in saline environments. However, the geographic pattern and stability of the diazotrophic community in coastal salt marshes ecosystems are poorly understood.

Experimental and field evidence indicate that islet‐nesting tundra birds experience reduced nest predation and benefit indirectly from high snow goose densities

Oikos, EarlyView.
Landscape features can shape the occurrence and strength of predator–prey interactions by influencing predation risk and prey distribution. In the High Arctic, some bird species select nesting sites with physical features that impede access for their main terrestrial predator, the Arctic fox.
