Improved Cerrado Wetland Mapping Through Seasonal Moisture Metrics, Terrain Information and Semantic Segmentation

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

Knowledge gap on the spatial structure of soil nitrogen mineralization variability—A systematic review

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Soil nitrogen (N) mineralization governs plant‐available N from soil organic matter and microbial turnover, and is typically estimated as potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN) via anaerobic incubations or as N0 and mineralization rate (k) via long‐term aerobic incubations.

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2488-2518, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

Evolutionary Imprints on the Foliar Elementome: Biogeochemical Niche Differentiation Among Fagus Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study compared the biogeochemical niches of three Fagus species (F. grandifolia, F. sylvatica, and F. crenata) using foliar nutrient data from 328 sites, revealing distinct elemental compositions and unique nutrient acquisition strategies. Phosphorus and calcium primarily distinguished F. sylvatica, whereas F.

Increasing Respiration Weakens the Carbon Sink Over Two Decades in a Temperate Deciduous Forest

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Using a 20‐year eddy covariance record from a temperate deciduous forest, we show that net carbon uptake declined over two decades. Both the trend and interannual variability in net carbon exchange were respiration driven, with warming winters and increasing late‐summer diffuse light driving the trend in respiration.

Advancing our understanding of soil particulate organic matter dynamics

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract This study aimed to characterize the diversity and complexity of soil particulate organic matter (POM) across California agricultural fields. By identifying the chemical signature of this small but significant organic matter fraction, researchers can build a deeper understanding of how it contributes to nutrient and carbon cycling in ...

Cropping system and nitrogen fertilization modulate soil enzyme kinetics

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract The decomposition of soil organic matter and nutrient cycling are largely mediated by extracellular enzymes, yet the effect of soil management on enzyme kinetic (Michaelis constant [Km] and maximum velocity [Vmax]) remains poorly understood.

Impacts of Transient Critical Zone Evolution on Landslide Susceptibility and Hazard Across the Utuado Batholith, Puerto Rico

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Landscapes in humid climates often experience rapid chemical and mechanical weathering that can change groundwater fluxes, drainage pathways, and frictional strength via alterations in subsurface mineral composition and matrix porosity. These changes to hillslope critical zone structure and strength should control landslide susceptibility ...

Impact of Salinity on Straw Conversion Into Different Soil Organic Carbon Fractions: Evidences From a 13C‐Labeling Incubation Experiment

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10246-10254, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although straw is widely used to ameliorate saline soils, the impact of salinity on straw conversion into soil organic carbon (SOC) fractions remains unclear. Our aim was to explore how soil salinity affected straw conversion into SOC. A 180‐day soil incubation with 13C‐labeling maize straw was conducted to investigate straw conversion into ...
