AGRICULTURAL PROCESSING PLANTS IN NORTH DAKOTA: SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACTS

The socioeconomic impact of four agricultural processing plants on their respective North Dakota communities was investigated. The objectives were (1) to evaluate the impact of plant construction and operation on economic, demographic, public service ...

Luminescence and Photochromism in Lanthanide‐Doped Hackmanites

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Lanthanide‐doped lithium hackmanite derivatives are prepared utilizing a doped LiAlSiO4 precursor to modify luminescent and photochromic properties. Upon UV excitation, europium doping results in green Eu2+ persistent luminescence from shallow traps. Contrarily, samarium doping induces unusual near‐infrared photochromism.

Ion‐Pairing and Counterion Effects in Contemporary Photochemistry

Angewandte Chemie Novit, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ion‐pairing and counterion effects have emerged as fundamental yet underexplored determinants of photochemical behavior. Far from inert, counterions, and Coulombic interactions modulate excited‐state dynamics, quenching efficiencies, emission, and catalytic pathways.

Scale‐Dependent Attraction of Invasive Raccoons to Bait Sites: Behavioural and Proximity Responses in a Post‐Disaster Agricultural Landscape

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using cafeteria‐style bait trials and GPS telemetry, we investigated scale‐dependent responses of invasive raccoons to baiting in a post‐nuclear‐disaster agricultural landscape in Fukushima, Japan. Baiting induced strong short‐term and daily‐scale attraction to trap sites but did not restructure long‐term space use, highlighting the need to balance ...

Origins Under the Blowtorch: Frequent Fire Shifts the Balance Between Sunda‐Origin and Sahul‐Origin Plant Species in a Tropical Savanna

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We examined the effect of fire frequency on the composition of vegetation of different biogeographic origins, to understand how frequently an ecosystem can be subject to fire but still retain its evolutionary diversity. There was dramatic structural and biogeographic change in less than 20 years from dry tropical woodlands into savannas, creating ...

Integrated Soil Salinisation Management Strategies in Agriculture

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
This review synthesises integrated water, agronomic, and biochemical strategies for managing soil salinisation, presenting a decision framework for selecting cost‐effective amendments based on initial soil assessment and long‐term sustainability monitoring. ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a global threat to agricultural sustainability, affecting about

Varied motivations for secondary forest reclearing among landholders make forest persistence challenging

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1943-1956, June 2026.
Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.
