Improving carbon modeling in aspen‐dominated forests: Lessons from CBM‐CFS3 evaluation against long‐term field data

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 6, September 2026.
Abstract Boreal forests cover a substantial portion of Canada's land base and play a central role in the national carbon budget through carbon storage and fluxes across multiple above‐ and belowground pools. The Carbon Budget Model of the Canadian Forest Sector (CBM‐CFS3) simulates and projects forest carbon dynamics under varying conditions and ...

Long‐term trends in greenness in the alpine zone of northeastern North America from remote sensing

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Alpine zones above treeline in the Appalachian Mountains and adjacent ranges of northeastern North America support distinctive ecological communities that thrive where conditions are too harsh for trees to grow. These communities differ from alpine zones elsewhere on the continent and are a regionally important source of floristic biodiversity,

Ex vitro standardization enables evaluation of phosphorus‐use strategies in Pampa biome grasses

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Native grasses of the Pampa biome are essential for ecosystem functioning and restoration, yet understanding of how native species respond to nutrient availability remains limited by challenges in standardizing plant material for controlled experiments.

Habitat characteristics along spring migration routes of elk, mule deer, and pronghorn in the southern San Juan Mountains

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
We evaluated habitat characteristics of spring migration routes and stopover sites for adult female elk (Cervus canadensis), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in the San Juan Mountains (2021–2022) and found species‐specific differences in vegetation structure, terrain, and proximity to land cover types relative to ...

Effect of Phosphate Fertilization and Cutting Date Improves Nutritional Status and Productive Parameters of a Tropical Forage Legume

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of chemical fertilizers is economically and environmentally costly to produce and apply. Therefore, optimized fertilizer use is critical to increase or maintain crop yields. We evaluated the productive and nutritional characteristics of the Stylosanthes cv “Campo Grande” submitted to different cutting date and phosphate fertilization ...

Effect of defoliation frequency around flowering time on the nutritive value of orchardgrass. [1666W - abstract].

open access: yes
.- Determining the optimal defoliation frequency is essential to increase the productivity of pasture-based dairy systems. An experiment was carried out to study the effect of the defoliation regimen around flowering time on the evolution of chemical ...

Population Dynamics of Greenhouse Thrips (Heliothrips haemorrhoidalis) on Avocado Under Single and Combined Predator Releases

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The greenhouse thrips, Heliothrips haemorrhoidalis (Bouché, 1833), is an important avocado pest in New Zealand, where repeated infestations reduce leaf quality and tree vigour. To assess biological control stability under different predator assemblages, this study evaluated thrips population dynamics and predator survival across two sequential phases ...

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1733-1745, September 2026.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1517-1532, September 2026.
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...
