Community Assembly Mechanism of Woody Plants at Different Successional Stages in Karst Areas Based on Functional Traits and Phylogeny

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study reveals a shift in woody plant community assembly from competitive exclusion in early succession to habitat filtering in later stages within karst areas. Environmental distance (80.54%) contributed significantly more than geographical distance (9.95%), providing strong quantitative evidence that niche processes, particularly habitat ...

Riparian vegetation diversity in boreal headwaters: Comparing streams, modified waterways, and ditches

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Decades of forest management in the boreal biome have involved digging drainage ditches and modifying streams to increase timber production, altering terrestrial ecosystems and expanding stream networks. Modified waterways and drainage ditches represent widespread novel aquatic and riparian ecosystems, with little known about their ...

Field trip stop descriptions [PDF]

open access: yes
Fifteen sites within the channeled scabland were selected as stops with the dual aim of visiting locations critical to the arguments for a catastrophic flood origin of the scablands, as well as permitting an examination of the variability in both ...

Protection of Gully Slope in Loess Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Development
Rigid protection of traditional engineering slope protection measures can play a certain role in slope protection at the initial stage of the project, but with the passage of time, the slope will be affected by weathering, the stability of the slope will be reduced, in addition, a large area of engineering rock surface exposed will not be coordinated ...

Effects of soil profile configuration‐based weathered coal residue addition on soil water infiltration and evaporation

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Optimizing soil profile configuration is crucial for ensuring food security in arid and semi‐arid regions by regulating soil water distribution. Applying exogenous materials is an effective method to construct functional soil profiles. Most existing studies focused on amending topsoil with exogenous materials, while the impacts of applying ...

Work–Residence Mismatch Drives Air Pollution Disparities Across Urban–Rural China

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Across the globe, spatial mismatches between work and residence reshape human mobility and influence regional air quality, yet their effects across urban–rural systems remain poorly quantified. China's ongoing urbanization and rural revitalization underscore the urgent need to understand these dynamics. Here, using multi‐source geospatial data,

Springtime Formation of Laminated Soil Carbonate Rinds and Changes in Fluvial Terrace Soils on Orbital Timescales at Rio Mesa, Utah, USA

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Laminated soil carbonate rinds are a Quaternary paleoclimate archive whose isotope composition is linked to soil formation conditions. At Rio Mesa, Utah (USA), we investigated the fidelity of rind records in a river terrace setting by determining the seasonal timing of rind formation and testing for inter‐record replication.
