Change in Photosynthesis of Spring Wheat with Irrigation Amount and Biochar Amendment
【Objective】 Amending soil with biochar can improve soil structure and fertility, but it could make soil slightly hydrophobic. Its combined effect with irrigation on crop growth is not well understood.

Water–fertilizer coupling effect on the growth traits of winter wheat under conditions of light and small sprinklers [PDF]
Light and small sprinklers were used to irrigate winter wheat fields. The distribution and migration of water and nitrogen in soil during winter wheat growth period were analyzed. Moreover, the growth traits of winter wheat were monitored.

Wilt‐Based Irrigation in Kentucky Bluegrass: Effects on Visual Quality and Irrigation Amounts Among Cultivars [PDF]
ABSTRACT A critical challenge facing the turf industry is increasingly limited water supplies. Identifying cultivars that use less water while maintaining acceptable quality may mitigate irrigation demands. Our objectives were to identify Kentucky bluegrass ( Poa pratensis L.

Minimising the environmental impacts of irrigation by good scheduling [PDF]
Irrigation constitutes a major user of water resources at a time, and in places, where resources are at their lowest. Also, by maintaining the soil in a wetter state, it increases the annual drainage, which can affect the leaching of nitrates into the

3D Printed Photon Shield Assembly for Low‐Noise Visual Stimulation During Two‐Photon Imaging in Mice
We present the Photon Shield, an open‐hardware system for low‐noise two‐photon calcium imaging during visual stimulation in mice. Combining a 3D‐printed headplate and rail‐mounted shield substantially reduces stray‐light contamination, as quantitatively verified. Functional validation confirms reliable cortical responses. Open design files enable broad
