The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts
Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...

Novel Glomeromycotina–moss associations identified in California dryland biocrusts
Summary Drylands, which comprise c. 45% of Earth's land area, host biological soil crusts (biocrusts): symbiotic communities of cyanobacteria, fungi, algae, lichen, and bryophytes that stabilize soil and support key ecosystem functions. Moss‐dominated biocrusts are particularly interesting due to their potential to illuminate ancient bryophyte–fungal ...

Abstract Trace metals regulate Southern Ocean productivity, but their cycling across Antarctic marginal‐sea gradients remains poorly constrained. We measured dissolved, labile particulate, and refractory particulate Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb across the Amundsen Sea Polynya (ASP), sea‐ice zone (SIZ), and Oceanic Area (OA), alongside iron‐addition ...

Electrochemically induced density gradients are harnessed to drive gravity‐dependent convection at partially fouled electrodes. By controlling electrode orientation and surface heterogeneity, mass transport is enhanced without external stirring. This enables coupling of electrochemical reactions with enzyme catalysis on insulating domains, exemplified ...
