Short‐Term Response of Soil Health Indicators to Cover Crop Management in Small‐Scale Vegetable Cropping Systems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT A 2‐year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted on a clay loam soil in Quebec, Canada, to evaluate the short‐term effect of spring‐seeded cover crop termination methods on soil health indicators. A mixture of field peas (Pisum sativum L.) with oats (Avena sativa L.) in 2022 and with faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in 2023 was seeded in early ...

What can lithics tell us about hominin technology's ‘primordial soup’? An origin of stone knapping via the emulation of Mother Nature

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S3, Page S8-S30, June 2026.
Abstract The use of stone hammers to produce sharp stone flakes—knapping—is thought to represent a significant stage in hominin technological evolution because it facilitated the exploitation of novel resources, including meat obtained from medium‐to‐large‐sized vertebrates. The invention of knapping may have occurred via an additive (i.e., cumulative)
