Incorporating Gas‐Phase Chemistry Into the Unified Forecast System (UFS) for Global Air Quality Applications

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Unified Forecast System (UFS) is a community‐based Earth modeling system designed to support operational forecasts at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), while also facilitating the integration of research advances from the broader scientific community.

Lightning‐caused disturbance frequency and severity varies with topography in an Afromontane forest

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
The results indicate that lightning disturbance severity differs within and among sites, potentially mediated by differences in lightning tolerance among tree species, and provide preliminary support for the hypothesis that disturbance severity declines with disturbance frequency. Abstract Lightning is an important agent of tropical tree mortality, but

Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 2, Page 503-519, March 2026.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...

Influence of Elephants on the Survivorship of, and Damage to, Baobabs in the Semi‐Arid Gonarezhou National Park, Zimbabwe

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Baobabs are of conservation concern in protected areas in southern Africa because rates of elephant‐induced mortality, coupled with severe drought periods, may threaten to lead to local extirpation. Alternatively, baobabs may persist because of spatial refuges provided by distance from permanent water or rugged topography.

Wildfires and Atopic Diseases: A Review

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 651-662, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildfire smoke is a major environmental health threat that has increased in frequency and severity in recent years. A hazardous component of wildfire smoke is particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5). There is evidence to suggest that exposure to wildfire PM2.5 may increase the risk of developing or exacerbating atopic diseases, such as asthma ...
