Decadal effects of fuel treatments and annual grass invasion on sagebrush ecosystem carbon stocks

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Fuel treatments are implemented across large spatial scales in sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems of the US Intermountain West to limit wildfire risk and spread, but treatment effects on ecosystem carbon storage remain poorly understood. Fuel treatments can reduce aboveground carbon storage and may also influence belowground carbon storage ...

Morphodynamic adjustment in a watershed affected by megafires: Deadman River, British Columbia, Canada

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Deadman River watershed (British Columbia, Canada) was severely impacted by the Sparks Lake Fire in 2021. Timelapse photogrammetry reveals sharp post‐fire channel widening and increase in migration rate. Through multispectral remote‐sensing analysis, these morphodynamic changes are related to burn severity affecting the watershed.

A Bayesian Framework for Empirical Estimation of Post‐Earthquake Building Inspection Time

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Building safety inspections can be an impeding determinant of post‐earthquake recovery, yet their durations remain inadequately quantified because fine‐grained operational data are rarely available. Here, we present a probabilistic Bayesian framework to quantify building‐level inspection time, calibrated against a comprehensive multiagency dataset from

Alzheimer's Protection by PLCγ2 Compacts Plaques, Redistributes Microglia, and Protects Synapses in AppNL‐G‐F Mice

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Alzheimer's disease protective PLCG2 P522R variant protects against amyloid‐induced synapse loss independently of amyloid load, promotes increased plaque compaction, and is associated with enhanced microglial engagement with diffuse amyloid. ABSTRACT The Alzheimer's disease protective P522R PLCG2 coding variant (rs72824905) is downstream of TREM2 ...

Plasma Membrane Remodeling During Microglial Activation: A Hypothesis Linking Microglial Shape and Lipid Droplet Formation

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 8, August 2026.
Microglial morphology changes in response to damage by Aβ and aging result in significant reductions in cell surface area. Transcriptomic analyses suggest that fatty acid synthesis and triacylglycerol formation drive redistribution of surface membrane into intracellular lipid droplets.
