Optimizing Hybrid Wind–Solar Systems in Barren Land Under Constraints Imposed by Atmospheric Aerosols

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract By using a solar photovoltaic (PV) performance model and applying it to global data from 2000 to 2022, we demonstrated that although the net impact of aerosols on power generation was negative, this loss was almost entirely driven by soiling of panel surfaces and could be mitigated by developing an appropriate cleaning regime.

Social‐Ecological Drivers of Cropland Productivity Dynamics for Sustainable Intensification

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Sustainably enhancing cropland productivity is critical for global food security, yet its drivers within complex social‐ecological systems remain poorly understood. Conventional analyses often miss the cross‐scale, non‐linear dynamics that shape productivity, leading to ineffective policies.

Spatially Explicit Biochar Deployment Enhances Food Security and Advances Carbon Neutrality in China's Staple Crops

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Biochar offers significant potential to improve soil quality, enhance crop productivity, and alleviate environmental risks, all of which are central to sustainable food systems under global change. However, realizing these benefits at scale requires strategic, spatially explicit deployment that considers complex soil‐crop‐climate‐biochar ...

Varying hydraulic strategies within leaves, stems and roots of coexisting desert shrubs

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3276-3295, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Effective and continuous root‐to‐leaf hydraulic transport is crucial for plant survival and growth during drought. However, the capacity to resist hydraulic dysfunction remains understudied in leaves and roots, especially for desert shrubs.
