Beyond high‐throughput: leveraging plant phenotyping to improve understanding and prediction of plant growth through process‐based models

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The last decade has marked a period of rapid innovation in high‐throughput phenotyping (HTP) of plants. This includes the establishment of robotic phenotyping infrastructure, development of new sensors, and improvements in computation for downstream analysis.

Art Adds Value to Ecological Field Courses: A Multi‐Year Case Study in Higher Education

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents Earth Projects, an interdisciplinary, place‐based field course that merges ecology and ecological art (eco‐art) to foster deeper engagement with environmental learning. Pre‐ and post‐survey comparisons show that incorporating eco‐art can strengthen students' emotional connections to their identities, disciplines, and place.

A dam‐inspired textile patch with layer‐by‐layer isovolumetric water transport for sweat loss monitoring

open access: yesInfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
A dam‐inspired textile patch for controllable and quantitative sweat transport (as in dams transporting ships) and sweat loss monitoring. Unlike the conventional Janus‐structured textile of directional water transport model, this textile patch features a multi‐laminated all‐porous fabric structure with an unprecedented layer‐by‐layer isovolumetric ...

Mental health benefits of urban green—A systematic review and meta‐analysis of 56 pre‐post control experiments

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 808-834, April 2026.
Abstract Background. Fostering healthy urban living conditions is a critical public health objective. One efficient approach lies in the contact to nature, as numerous studies have shown that urban and peri‐urban natural elements both indoors and outdoors carry a large potential in buffering typical urban threats to mental health.

Toward Greener Hybrid Composites: Effect of Wood Powder and Calcium Carbonate on Recycled HDPE With Tyre and MAPE Modifiers

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Recycled high‐density polyethylene (rHDPE) was reinforced with wood powder (0–25 wt%) and calcium carbonate (5 wt%), modified with ground tyre powder (5 wt%) and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP, 5 wt%). The hybrid filler system demonstrated: Mechanical Enhancement: Tensile strength increased by 25.5%, stiffness by 45%, and tensile modulus ...

The Effect of Air Purification on the Indoor Air Quality in Habitable New Zealand Buildings

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
Particulate matter (PM) in indoor air, including fungal spores and bacteria, poses significant health risks, especially in poorly constructed and inadequately ventilated buildings that are prevalent in New Zealand. To maintain acceptable living conditions, there is a need to explore ways in which fungal and bacterial populations in habitable buildings ...

HomoTherm: An Open‐Source Approach to Modelling Heat Exchange in Humans and Other Hominins in Diverse Environments

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
We present ‘HomoTherm’, a human heat budget model for simulating humans and related species with diverse traits in diverse environments. It is part of the NicheMapR package for biophysical modelling and is a multi‐part extension of the ‘endoR’ function.
