Ecological Reasons for the Unusually High Rate of Gastropod Drill Hole Repair in the Deep‐Sea Brachiopod Abyssothyris wyvillei From New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Brachiopods are able to repair drill holes made in their shells by predatory gastropods. However, in most samples examined, drill hole repair is rare to absent: Presumably the drilling attack is usually fatal to the prey. The shells of short‐looped brachiopod Abyssothyris wyvillei, from deep‐sea dredge samples from two localities in the Tasman Sea, New

Genetic analyses of leaf traits in an interspecific Zoysia japonica × Zoysia matrella F2 population

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) is an important warm‐season turfgrass cultivated across tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions of the world. The genus is characterized by the presence of salt‐secreting glands on the adaxial leaf surface, which contribute to its high salt tolerance.

Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

Global Atmospheric Circulation Reorganization Drives Contrasting Wind Regime Changes Across Hemispheric Latitudes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Near‐surface wind regimes govern critical Earth system processes including dust mobilization, ocean mixing, and wildfire spread, yet their multi‐decadal evolution under anthropogenic forcing remains poorly constrained. Here we quantify extreme wind frequency changes (1981–2024) using ERA5‐Land reanalysis with a monthly aggregation approach ...

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...
