Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 834-848, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.

Rice Productivity in Saline–Alkaline Soils: Constraints, Microbiome‐Mediated Regulation and Management Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Saline–alkaline soils are widespread and represent a particularly restrictive environment for rice, especially in arid and semi‐arid regions. These soils commonly combine elevated salinity with high pH, sodium‐related soil constraints and bicarbonate/carbonate accumulation, resulting in severe physicochemical and nutritional limitations.

Enhanced Roofs for Passive Building Design: A Systematic Review of Thermal and Energy Performance

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
This systematic review evaluates PCM‐ and NePCM‐integrated roofing systems for passive cooling. PCM roofs reduce heat flux and indoor temperature fluctuations, while NePCMs improve thermal conductivity with latent heat trade‐offs. Hybrid cooling strategies enhance performance, and future challenges in scalability, durability, and practical ...

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3633-3647, October 2026.
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 725-752, October/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.
