Field‐based evaluation of glass cullet as a supplementary sediment source for coastal restoration
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.There is an ever‐increasing demand for sand to support projects like beach nourishment and dune restoration, but dredging and mining sand causes environmental damage. Demonstrating the environmental and ecological compatibility of crushed and ground glass known as cullet to support coastal restoration projects could simultaneously divert waste from ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Mechanoreceptors in the fingertip skin allow us to explore objects and to feel a vast range of textures. We recorded responses from individual low‐threshold mechanoreceptive afferents in humans while dynamic stimuli were swept across their receptive fields, systematically varying force, velocity and spatial period.

Oat–Sesbania Rotation Boosts Oat Yield and Profit via Soil Nutrient Buildup and Dual Harvest
Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.Under the oat–Sesbania rotation system, soil nutrient accumulation serves as a key driver of increased oat yield and quality, with benefits tending to intensify over successive rotational years. Green manure incorporation of Sesbania promotes soil and crop improvement, whereas forage harvesting of Sesbania attains comparable agronomic outcomes while ...

Not Necessarily Farm‐Wives: The Working Women of Rural Aotearoa/New Zealand
New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 3, December 2026.ABSTRACT There's a perception farm‐resident women are farmers or farmwives (e.g., cooks, record‐keepers, errand‐runners). Yet most farm‐resident women record a non‐farm occupation in their census returns. This article investigates this anomaly. It looks at the changing status of farm and other rural women, the diversity of non‐farming careers they ...
