Can surface treatments and climate matching enhance restoration success in the Sonoran Desert?
Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant communities in arid ecosystems through seeding is a critical yet often unsuccessful strategy due to severe environmental stressors, including degraded soils, low and variable rainfall, and seed predation. Objectives To improve restoration outcomes, we examined the influence of seed mix types and soil surface

Abstract Introduction The invasion of the winter annual grass Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) reduces native plant biodiversity and increases wildfire risk in western North America. Seed‐based restoration often fails to increase native plant recruitment in degraded, Cheatgrass‐invaded areas.

Spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping for crop water stress assessment: A review
Abstract Water stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity worldwide, and its impacts are intensifying due to climate variability and increasing water scarcity. This review focuses on the spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping as a critical approach to improving crop water‐stress assessment and supporting precision water ...

Drivers of 2023–2024 Atmospheric CO2 Growth: Role of Northern Mid‐to‐High Latitude Land Carbon Cycle
Abstract The global atmospheric CO2 growth rate in 2023–2024 reached an unprecedented level, exceeding all records since modern monitoring began. Using a CO2 flux inversion, constrained by column‐averaged CO2 observations from Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT), we investigated spatio‐temporal drivers of this anomaly.

Flash drought development across Northeast Asia is governed by distinct hydroclimatic controls linked to atmospheric demand and water availability. Using the Standardized Evaporative Stress Ratio framework, this study classifies flash drought events into water‐availability‐driven and demand‐driven mechanisms.
