Degradation of Seasonally Frozen Ground in the Three–River Source Region and Its Correlation Impact Within Precipitation–Runoff Process

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Projections of Meteorological Drought and Potential Evapotranspiration Using the RegCM4 Over Northeastern Iran

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We downscale CanESM2 with the Regional Climate Model version 4 (20 km) and evaluate against 15 stations to derive monthly PET (Hargreaves–Samani) and SPEI for northeastern Iran (1990–2009, 2040–2059, 2080–2099). Results show robust PET increases and a shift toward more negative monthly SPEI—especially April–September—indicating earlier onset and longer

Climatic Drivers of the Area Burned by Winter Wildfires in Northern Italy

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates winter wildfires occurring between November and April in northern Italy over the period 2008–2022. By integrating high‐resolution burned‐area data with gridded climatic indices derived from 150 weather stations, it identifies spatial and temporal wildfire patterns, highlights the most fire‐prone mountain areas through pixel ...

Iron Fertilization of Soybean Genotypes Differing in Iron Use Efficiency Under Alkaline Conditions: Implications for Yield and Seed Nutritional Quality

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Soybean, a nutritionally important protein‐ and oil‐rich legume, is highly sensitive to iron (Fe) deficiency under alkaline conditions, where reduced Fe availability limits growth, yield, and seed quality. Effective biofortification therefore requires increasing seed Fe while reducing phytate that restricts Fe bioavailability.

Wheat Wild Relatives and Modern Cultivars Differ for Salt Resistance in Terms of Morpho‐Physiological Traits

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Wheat wild relatives are untapped genetic resources from salinity and drought hit areas. This study presents differential comparative morphophysiological responses of these species and modern wheat cultivars under saline conditions. Salt resistant species produce more shoot and root biomass under saline conditions through salt exclusion and/or tissue ...

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Assessing plant water status: Part 2 – Non‐destructive and remote sensing approaches

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Precise, real time and non‐destructive assessment of plant water status is important for advancing plant physiological understanding, optimizing water usage, improving crop resilience and supporting precision agriculture in the face of increasingly variable climatic conditions.

Comprehensive elucidation of volatile, phenolic, and organic acid profiles in Turkish mallow (Malva sylvestris L.) petal herbal tea: impact of diverse brewing conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Mallow (Malva sylvestris L.) petals are traditionally consumed as herbal tea across the Mediterranean for their soothing and anti‐inflammatory properties; however, scientific characterization of this consumption‐relevant matrix under realistic brewing conditions remains scarce.

Behavioral responses of black bears to human presence and infrastructure in Yosemite National Park

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Using GPS collar data from black bears in Yosemite National Park, we examined how bear spatiotemporal activity in relation to human development shifted during the COVID‐19 park closure in 2020. In the absence of visitors, bears maintained consistent landscape‐scale space use but altered fine‐scale spatial and temporal behaviors.

Little penguins select more isolated nest boxes for breeding, but lay date influences breeding success

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We determined that more isolated and possibly older nest boxes were selected by little penguins for breeding at Pōhatu/Flea Bay, New Zealand. However, breeding success was influenced by lay date in comparison to nest box characteristics. These findings inform immediate conservation recommendations regarding nest box design and placement.
