Recent advancements in artificial intelligence‐powered cancer prediction from oral microbiome

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Oral cancer is a major global health burden, ranking sixth in prevalence, with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) being the most common type. Importantly, OSCC is often diagnosed at late stages, underscoring the need for innovative methods for early detection.

From farm to field: testing different biocrust cultivation approaches and application techniques in the Sonoran Desert

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Drylands are among the most degraded ecosystems globally and are difficult to restore due to limited water availability. Biocrusts are a key component of maintaining soil stability and function in these systems. Since biocrust salvage opportunities are limited, cultivating salvaged biocrusts is a promising method.

Encapsulating ecosystem engineers: alginate beads of biocrusts for restoration efforts

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biocrusts are pioneer ecosystem engineers that modify the soil surface by aggregating particles, fixing carbon and nitrogen, and retaining moisture. These functions facilitate the establishment of both cryptogams and vascular plants, making biocrusts increasingly important in ecological restoration.

Influence of shrub‐induced microhabitats and biocrusts on native bunchgrass seedling establishment and growth

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Establishment of native vegetation from seed is important to the persistence and restoration of many native plant communities. Seedling establishment and growth likely vary within a plant community and may be influenced by microhabitats and biological soil crusts (biocrusts).

Microclimate engineers: how lichen cover impacts soil temperature, moisture, and nutrient availability on mine tailings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Iron mining is an important economic activity in the North American Canadian Shield but has caused large‐scale disturbance and physical upheaval of boreal ecosystems. Lichens grow abundantly on abandoned iron ore mine tailings as early successional taxa, yet their role in the successional processes of these post‐industrial landscapes is not fully ...
