Evaluating the Intercropping Systems in the Context of Agroecological Resilience in the Current Era of the Changing Climate: A Scenario of Scientific Analysis of Last Decade Data

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
The extreme event of climate change (CC) has become more crucial, and under the current context of CC during the last decade. The cropping system (CS) approach is more appropriate than a suitable and established package of practices for individual crops, as CS interrelates with other components and resources related to sustainable farming under the ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Evolution of Groundwater‐Dependent Ecosystems in the West Liao River Plain

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater‐dependent ecosystems (GDEs) are essential to ecological stability in semi‐arid regions, yet their identification and mechanistic interpretation remain constrained by limited long‐term observations and insufficient model interpretability.

Bridging Cross‐Scale Science–Policy Interfaces for Coherent Land‐Use Governance: Knowledge Co‐Production and Uptake in Kenya's Polycentric System

Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 654-673, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Land is fundamental to livelihoods and ecosystem health but faces mounting pressure from human activities, climate change, and competing development demands. Science–policy interfaces (SPIs)—platforms that connect experts and policymakers—are vital for co‐producing knowledge to inform coherent, sustainable land‐use governance.

Microorganisms Control Litter Decomposition and Drive Grassland Soil C Stabilization by Regulating Exoenzymes

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Grazing exclusion increased the percentage of litter‐derived C incorporation into both labile and stable SOC pools because of the higher litter quantity and microbial activities than that in the grazed grasslands. ABSTRACT Litter decomposition and microbial activity are important factors affecting soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration in the ...
