Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.Within quantum chemistry, density functional theory (DFT) is a revolution. This serves as an example of a multitude of other scientific events, supporting the idea that revolutions are always large, if observed with the appropriate magnification. ABSTRACT Distinguishing scientific revolutions from normal science is a subjective, conflicting matter ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 670-684, July 2026.We assessed Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) performance on five common pasture plant species. Larvae consumed more dock, plantain and chicory per day than red or white clover, but with lower conversion efficiencies. Feeding on red clover reduced weights and egg laying, and lengthened development times compared with plantain.

Capturing Field‐Scale Soil Moisture Dynamics in Ireland Using Cosmic‐Ray Neutron Sensing
European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 4, July–August 2026.Schematic overview of the study, including the monitoring setup, field observations, and the principal findings. ABSTRACT Cosmic‐Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) enables non‐invasive monitoring of field‐scale soil moisture, bridging the spatial gap between point‐scale sensors such as Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) and coarse‐resolution satellite products ...
