Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1599-1615, September 2026.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

Physiological and Morphological Responses of Soybean to Water Stress and Rehydration: Implications for Growth, Seed Yield and Quality

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid stomatal regulation is an early response associated with improved maintenance of leaf water status and post‐stress recovery in soybean, but it cannot fully offset the detrimental effects of severe drought on seed production. This study evaluated the physiological and morphological responses of soybean genotypes to progressive water ...

Maximum water stress is decoupled from climate, traits, and growth in a xeric oak

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2392-2406, September 2026.
We sampled sites across the geographic distribution of blue oak (Quercus douglasii) in California, USA, which spans a large range of mean annual precipitation. Summary Our ability to explain and predict the spatial patterns of forest mortality remains limited.

Water Availability and Hydraulic Strategies Control Leaf Thermoregulation and Damage During Heat Stress and Recovery in Temperate Tree Species

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6296-6310, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Heatwaves are intensifying worldwide, often coinciding with high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and soil drought. Yet, how temperate tree species tolerate these combined stresses remains elusive. Using single‐tree gas‐exchange chambers, we examined the response of leaf gas exchange and thermoregulation of three broadleaved tree species to a ...

Lack of Hydraulic Acclimation in Response to Multiple Droughts and Recovery

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6931-6943, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Human‐caused climate change is expected to bring more frequent and extended droughts with shorter wet periods of relief in between for many regions of the world. Critical knowledge gaps remain around the extent to which tree species can acclimate physiologically to repeated droughts.

Effects of deficit irrigation and biostimulants on melon productivity and quality in semi‐arid conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6348-6364, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Water scarcity and soil salinization are major constraints to irrigated agriculture in semi‐arid regions, affecting crop productivity and fruit quality. Combining deficit irrigation with biostimulant application has emerged as a promising strategy to improve water use efficiency and plant stress tolerance.

How Well Is the Lake‐Land Breeze Circulation of Lake Victoria Captured in ECMWF Operational Analysis?

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lake‐breeze fronts (LBFs) strongly influence cloudiness, deep convection, and heavy rainfall around tropical lakes, yet their representation in global forecast systems remains uncertain. Using a newly developed objective detection algorithm, we evaluate LBF evolution and timing in ECMWF forecasts.

Experimental Thermal Performance Investigation of Nontracking Multiple Parabolic Trough Collector With a Single Absorber

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3584-3607, August 2026.
With a mass flow rate of 0.3 kg/min, a direct solar radiation of 770.25 W/m2, and a global solar radiation of 915.25 W/m2, the maximum outlet water temperature was 63.3°C, the maximum instantaneous efficiency was 51.78%, and the average heat gain was found between 69.81 and 206.88 W, depending on mass flow rate and direct solar radiation.
