Miscanthus Leaf Drop Timing Impacts Autumn and Winter Soil Decomposition Rates

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Genotypic variation in Miscanthus leaf senescence was simulated in different leaf drop profiles combined with standardized buried litter bags to estimate impacts on soil decomposition. Litter drop occurring over shorter periods resulted in lower soil decomposition; concentrated winter leaf drop is preferred due to longer‐term soil organic carbon ...

Elevation shapes alpine snow algal blooms and their influence on albedo reduction

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2482-2496, September 2026.
Graphical summary of elevational trends in Sanguina‐dominated snow algal blooms. Increasing elevation was associated with larger cells, lower Chla content per cell, higher astaxanthin ratios, lower snow water content, and reduced cell‐normalized albedo, whereas algal cell density showed no consistent elevational trend.

Behavioral Response to Plastic Bag Legislation in Botswana [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates the use of charges and standards in dealing with a common externality, plastic litter from shopping bags in Botswana. The country passed a plastic bag tax (effective 2007) to curb the plastic bag demand.

Testing coir (coconut) fiber as a novel, biodegradable material for coral reef restoration: coir interactions with larval and juvenile corals

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coral populations have declined in recent decades, largely due to anthropogenic climate change. In response, coral restoration projects are being implemented, and rubble stabilization is one such approach. Rubble beds form when dead coral fragments accumulate on the seafloor and can be mobilized by water flow.

Evaluation of the feeding value of two tropical cereal straws, maize stover, rice straw and their botanical fractions by nylon and mobile bag technique

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Science and Technology, 2009
Degradability characteristics of dry matter (DM), protein free DM (PFDM) and nitrogen (N) were estimated in maize stover, rice straw and their botanical fractions using the nylon bag technique. True intestinal digestibility of the intact feed protein (TID) was also estimated using themobile bag technique.
