Design charts for the stability analysis of unsaturated soil slopes

open access: yes, 2009
Simple limit equilibrium analyses can be performed to determine the Factor of Safety (FOS) against slope failure of unsaturated soil slopes. However, many of the input parameters needed for these analyses are highly variable, and the FOS value obtained ...

Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 7, Page 3484-3494, July 2026.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.

A Database of Plant Heat Tolerances and Methodological Matters

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We collected > 3100 heat tolerance records reported in degrees Celsius, from terrestrial plants encompassing > 1700 taxa, > 1000 genera, and > 200 families from years 1935–2024. Our database is global in scope, but we highlight a lack of standardized methods, undersaturated taxonomic sampling, and underrepresented geographic regions.

Vegetation and Topographic Controls on Post‐Fire Snowpack: Evidence From the 2021 Caldor Fire

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The increase in wildland fires in recent decades due to long‐term fire suppression policies and increasingly favourable climate factors has also increased the elevation range of wildland fires. In the mountainous western United States, this has led to an increasing influence of fire on landscape‐level vegetation patterns in snow‐dominated ...
