Short‐term effects of grass–legume mixtures on greenhouse gas fluxes in southeastern US cool‐season annual forage systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The agricultural sector contributes to the greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes in the United States. In livestock systems, grass–legume mixtures provide agronomic benefits, but their role in GHG mitigation remains understudied. This study evaluated the short‐term effects of two forage treatments on nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4), and carbon ...

Maximising trait evenness promotes the recovery of plant species richness in managed grasslands

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Land‐use intensification threatens biodiversity, and restoring degraded ecosystems remains challenging due to the difficulty of identifying the rules governing community assembly and dynamics. Investigating the temporal dynamics of trait‐abundance distributions (TADs) along long‐term time series offers a promising approach to disentangle the influence ...

Resistance of plant communities to invasion by tall fescue: An experimental study combining species diversity, functional traits and nutrient levels

Basic and Applied Ecology, 2022
The grass Festuca arundinacea is often planted for slope stabilisation in South Korea, and is spreading widely beyond the introduction sites. This study used a functional group approach to examine the resistance of plant combinations to invasion by F ...

Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

Effects of Soil Microbial Features on Vegetation-growing Concrete Gunning in Different Vegetative Restoration Patterns

Shuitu baochi yanjiu, 2010
In order to find the effect of the soil microbial features under vegetation-growing concrete gunning,the soil microbial biomass and nutrient level of several vegetative restoration patterns including Cynodon dactylon,Festuca arundinacea Medicago sativa ...

Pixels and Patterns in the Sand: Decoding Coastal Dune Habitats With Multi‐Resolution CNNs

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Coastal dune habitats are small, fragmented, and challenging to map. We tested convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on an Italian coastal dune system, comparing four remote sensing datasets: UAV, airborne, Google Earth, and WorldView‐3 satellite. Mapping accuracy dropped sharply with coarser spatial resolution, while adding spectral bands mostly ...

Scaling Up of a Lightweight Aggregates System Based on Recovery Raw Materials and With Fertilisation Capacity: From Laboratory Prototype to Semi‐Industrial Production

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
Improved glass meltability enabled semi‐industrial prototyping of a residue‐derived PK fertiliser. Firing produced mechanically stable micropellets and induced partial vitrification, pore‐network reorganisation, delayed P release, but restricted K availability; 6‐month field trials on turfgrass and Photinia supported agronomic feasibility.

Beyond the Paddy Fields: Riparian Reed Beds as Essential Natural Habitat for the Critically Endangered Suweon Treefrog, Dryophytes suweonensis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This figure shows the true habitat type of Dryophytes suweonensis that this paper aims to demonstrate. ABSTRACT The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis (Kuramoto, 1980)), a critically endangered amphibian endemic to the Korean Peninsula, is widely regarded as being closely associated with rice paddies.

Botanical inventory of the early book herbaria of Leonhard Rauwolf from southern France and northern Italy (1560–1563)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Sixteenth‐century herbaria are the oldest plant collections that survive today and, as such, they provide valuable insights in past floras and historical botanical interactions. One of the most fascinating still extant 16th‐century herbaria is the four‐volume collection of the German physician, botanist and traveler Leonhard Rauwolf (1535 ...
