Growth Response of Crop Legumes to Soil Microbiota Is Linked With Soil Nutrients and Planting History

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbiota provide essential services to plants, but predicting or manipulating these benefits is difficult. Here, we investigated microbial benefits to legume crops at a landscape level to uncover factors that predict those services and can be modified by growers.

Environmental status of the Hanford reservation for July--December 1969 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Data are reported on the radioactivity of environmental samples collected from locations within the Hanford plant boundaries during the last six months of 1969. Data are included on: the total alpha activity and content of / sup 90/Sr and tritium in samples of Columbia River water; the total BETA activity of samples of drinking water; the total alpha ,

Metal–Organic Framework Featuring Monodispersed Silver Cation Sites for Highly Efficient and Selective Extraction of Aqueous Iodide Anions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
A novel cationic metal–organic framework (MOF‐monoAg) featuring monodispersed silver (Ag+) sites is developed for the highly selective extraction of aqueous iodide ions (I−). MOF‐monoAg exhibits high accessibility, selectivity, and binding affinity toward I− ions, enabling superior iodine extraction from seawater and efficient iodide removal from ...

Respatializing Toxic Harm: The Case Against Sacrifice Zones

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Describing heavily polluted areas as “sacrifice zones” has become commonplace in recent decades, as diverse groups resist their unwitting exposure to destructive and toxic industrial, municipal, and military activities. However, pollutants tend to seep, spill, leak, and drift from wherever they are concentrated, defying any notion of physical ...

Urban Ponds and the Emerging Role of Garden Ponds: Ecosystem Services and Disservices, Multifunctionality, and Trade‐Offs

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 12, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Urban ponds and garden ponds—a specific subset of the former, usually located in private gardens—are both typical examples of ponds in the urban landscape. They deliver multiple ecosystem services but can also contribute to ecosystem disservices. The role of garden ponds is largely unknown compared to other urban ponds.

Genetic Insights: Balancing Milk Yield, Fat: Protein Ratio and Fertility in Primiparous Cows From Subtropical Regions

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 6, Page 753-764, November 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, we aimed to evaluate the genetic association between fertility traits, milk yield and the fat: protein ratio (FPR) on the test day in primiparous Holstein cows. The analysed traits were milk yield (TDMY) and FPR assessed on the test day, as well as the following fertility traits: period from calving to first service (CFS), days ...

A globally influential area‐condition metric is a poor proxy for invertebrate biodiversity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2529-2540, October 2025.
Our results highlight the need to incorporate factors beyond habitat type and condition into site evaluations, and to complement metric use with species‐based surveys. Abstract There is increasing demand for standardised, easy‐to‐use metrics to assess progress towards achieving biodiversity targets and the effectiveness of ecological compensation ...

Ground zero soil sampling: Trinity, 1945

open access: yesGeology Today, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 137-146, July/August 2025.
At Trinity—the world's first nuclear weapons testing site—large quantities of soil were drawn into the fireball to redeposit either downwind as radioactive fallout or in the near‐field as a unique, anthropogenic silicate glass trinitite. Manhattan Project physicists and chemists came to see soils at the Trinity site as a useful medium to assess the ...

Impact of a two‐stage rumen cannulation on the health and rumen function of six lactating dairy cows

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 389-397, February 2025.
Abstract Objective To determine the impact of a two‐stage rumen cannulation on the health and rumen function of lactating dairy cows. Study design Experimental study. Animals Six lactating Holstein cows. Methods We performed a two‐stage rumen cannulation in six Holstein cows that were 49 ± 11 days in milk.

Radioactive particle resuspension research experiments on the Hanford Reservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Experiments were conducted from 1972 to 1975 at several Hanford Reservation study sites to determine whether radioactive particles from these sites were resuspended and transported by wind and to determine, if possible, any interrelationships between wind speed, direction, airborne soil, and levels of radioactivity on airborne particles.
