Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.

CrustCheck: a conceptual framework for interpreting biocrust trait–function relationships in drylands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biocrusts are increasingly recognized for their contribution to soil stability, hydrology, nutrient cycling, and energy balance in drylands, yet practical field methods for assessing functional roles are limited. Existing approaches typically rely on cover estimates, taxonomic identification, or laboratory analyses, providing ...

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.

Sustainability Assessment of Alternative Methods for Destruction of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Water

open access: yesRemediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants widely recognized for their resistance to degradation and potential adverse health effects. The treatment of PFAS‐contaminated aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, wastewater, and leachate) has been extensively studied in the published literature; however, the

A Field Guide to Corralling the Chaos: A Planning Framework for Using Models to Guide Opportunistic Field Studies of Natural Disturbances

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Watersheds regulate biogeochemical processes and provide ecosystem services to human societies, but disturbances can fundamentally alter these processes across space and time. Determining when and where to sample to capture disturbance impacts in watersheds remains a central challenge.

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.
