Soil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.

Climate‐smart land management: Greenhouse gas outcomes and social and economic pathways to adoption

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change poses one of the greatest threats to natural and working lands, reducing the resilience of agricultural and forest productivity. Because land management is a leading source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, climate‐smart management practices are being implemented to reduce net emissions while sustaining yields.

Green manuring for barley at Woburn

open access: yesThe Journal of Agricultural Science, 1973
SummaryThree short-term experiments on green-manuring are described. In the first, trefoil (T) and ryegrass given fertilizer N (RN) increased the yield of a following barley crop grown without fertilizer N by 500–900 kg/ha, but did not affect yield of barley given N.

Domestic composters as winter reservoirs for the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii in temperate climates

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Domestic composters enable year‐round emergence of Drosophila suzukii, buffering winter temperatures and supporting larval development, potentially enhancing overwintering survival and early‐season crop reinfestation. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii is an invasive pest established worldwide, including in temperate regions with harsh winters.

Effects of timed LED regimes on tomato plant traits, performance of two‐spotted spider mites, and predatory mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.
Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

Improving drought forecasting to support decision‐making

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
New satellite observations are integrated into a land surface model via data assimilation using innovative artificial intelligence methods. This enhances our comprehension of the effects of drought on forests and agricultural land on global and regional scales, enabling us to monitor drought‐related natural disasters and characterise regional exposure ...
