Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT Questions have recently been raised about the suitability of using porewater samples collected with suction lysimeters to estimate per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) mass discharge in the vadose zone. Multiple lines of evidence were evaluated to determine if porewater samples collected during a data gaps investigation in the former ...

Crop and soil responses to 24 years of wheat residue removal and tillage
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Retaining crop residue on agricultural land mitigates soil erosion and conserves nutrients, but its removal generates a valuable commodity for competing uses in agriculture and industry. Understanding long‐term effects of crop residue removal on crop performance and soil condition is essential to guide management decisions regarding ...

Evaluating early‐season hail damage in corn and its interaction with Goss's wilt
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Hailstorm losses are associated with plant defoliation, stand losses, and reduced crop canopy capacity to compete with weeds. Additionally, hail wounds in plants might favor disease development, potentially further reducing corn yields. Corn yield losses due to hailstorms early in the growing season are considered minor due to an expected ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8831-8843, September 2026.Optimizing PWM performance requires not only appropriate duty cycle selection, but also careful choice of adjuvant formulation tailored to each nozzle type. Drift control agents increased droplet size and reduced fine droplets, mitigating PWM‐induced variability. Decreasing the duty cycle consistently narrowed the spray angle.
