In the subhumid, wetland‐rich, geologically heterogeneous Boreal Plains region of Canada, we found several controls on stream DOC concentration ([DOC]) and DOM composition: An increase in [DOC] and aromaticity as temperature increases throughout the summer, with temperature trend prevailing over the influence of discharge.

Stemflows and Preferential Flows: A Historical Review and Challenges for the Future
Possible implementation of stemflow in the MIPS model where all water in the system is represented as particles in pathways of specified velocity. Stemflow (green particles) can be treated as a localised input with probabilities of entering higher velocity pathways than throughfall, depending on the input rates.

Toward Fully Biobased Polyesters With Spiroacetal Units: Synthesis and Enzymatic Depolymerization
A biobased spiroacetal‐containing dicarboxylate monomer derived from vanillin is developed as a sustainable alternative to dimethyl terephthalate. Copolyesters with tunable compositions are prepared, showing enhanced glass transition temperature, mechanical properties, and oxygen barrier performance.

Contrasting effects of temperature across trophic levels in geothermally warmed soil food webs
Global warming is altering the structure and dynamics of ecological communities, with significant consequences for soil food webs. Rising temperatures are expected to accelerate metabolic rates in organisms, potentially altering species interactions, and the structure and energetics of food webs.

Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.
