Atmospheric Deposition of Organic Pollutants: A Comprehensive Review of Sampling and Analytical Methodologies

open access: yesAnalytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Chemical control strategies for Poa annua in managed turfgrass systems

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Poa annua L. is a widespread and persistent weed in managed turfgrass systems, exhibiting both annual and short‐lived perennial growth habits. Effective management requires an integrated approach, with chemical herbicides remaining a primary tool.

Species‐Specific Vulnerability of Northern Red Sea Mesophotic Corals to Accelerated Warming

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Mesophotic reefs are often considered climate refuges, yet experimental thermal‐stress reveals species‐dependent vulnerability. Skeletal optics, energy reserves, and light environment determine bleaching severity. A depth‐generalist coral resisted stress while the mesophotic specialist bleached severely.

Investigation of the Optical and Morphological Properties of PS/POMA Blends Hybridized With Erbium Oxide (Er2O3)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 16, April 20, 2026.
ABSTRACT Polymeric blends (PB) represent a rapid and cost‐effective strategy for the development of materials with tailored properties. In this study, blends of polystyrene (PS) and poly(o‐methoxyaniline) (POMA) containing 7.5 wt/wt% of POMA were prepared and hybridized with erbium oxide (Er2O3) at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, and 3.0 wt/wt%.

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

The Reaction‐to‐Fire Performance of Intumescent Coating After Ageing by Thermal and Moisture Exposure

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 318-333, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Materials and products age with time and their properties change. It is known that, for example, the mechanical strength may be deteriorated from ageing. To understand the ageing effect on the fire behaviour of materials and products is important to maintain the safety level of the construction or application.

Biochar Mitigates Arsenic Phytotoxicity and Improves Crop Performance in Iron‐Rich Tropical Soils

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The contamination of tropical soils by the highly toxic metalloid, arsenic (As), is a pervasive issue, resulting in declining crop performance due to phytotoxicity. Biochars are gaining popularity as sorbents for contaminants, yet their capacity to ameliorate As phytotoxicity in diverse tropical soil types remains underexplored.

Chitosan–Alginate Seed Encrusting Enhances Salt Tolerance in Sweet Corn

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity is one of the most critical factors limiting global crop productivity, significantly hampering seed germination and early seedling development. This study examined the effects of seed treatment with chitosan and sodium alginate (NaAlg) on seedling growth and physiological responses of sweet corn (Zea mays L.

Epoxy resin‐based sealers modified with clay nanoparticles: Evaluation of their physicochemical and mechanical properties

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, Volume 134, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Epoxy resin‐based sealers are commonly used in endodontic treatment due to their superior physicochemical properties. Therefore, it is important to utilize these materials by enhancing their properties. Nonetheless, several of their properties remain suboptimal, including the relatively prolonged setting time, the moderate yet clinically ...

Forest health, heart rot disease, and their impact on the source of carbon‐based greenhouse gas fluxes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 921-933, April 2026.
Summary Forest health is critical for sustaining ecosystem services like carbon sequestration. Heart rot, a widespread disease in upland northern hardwood forests, may affect greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes, but its impacts remain poorly measured. Using non‐destructive tomography and direct gas flux measurements, we quantified the effects of heart ...
