The progressive modernization of cassava breeding programs at International Institute of Tropical Agriculture and future prospects

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Modernizing cassava breeding programs (CBPs) is critical to increase genetic gain, close the yield gap, and ensure food availability, accessibility, and affordability to support livelihood transformation and economic development in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA).

Uncovering Hidden Predators: Thermal Drone Detection of Antarctic Fur Seals in Tussac Grass at South Georgia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We demonstrate that fixed‐wing drones equipped with dual thermal and RGB sensors can effectively detect Antarctic fur seals, including those concealed in tussac grass at South Georgia. Thermal imagery significantly improved detection rates compared with RGB alone, while a combined workflow provided the most accurate population estimates.

Remote sensing and geospatial analysis for the study of plant community regeneration in human‐modified landscapes

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Natural regeneration is essential for maintaining functionally diverse and resilient plant communities in human‐modified landscapes. To design and implement successful conservation and restoration initiatives in these landscapes, research on the environmental and anthropogenic drivers of natural regeneration must be scaled up beyond ...

A Targeted Approach for Mapping Groundwater Discharge to Surface Water and Fish Thermal Refuge in Four Lake Ontario Tributaries

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Understanding groundwater discharge to surface water is crucial for ecosystems, water quality, and resource management. A flexible methodology was developed to first predict and then identify cold‐water zones and significant groundwater discharge areas in four key Lake Ontario tributaries.

Newly Discovered Active Faults in the Wairarapa Valley: Implications for Multi‐Fault Rupture and Kinematics in the Southern North Island, Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Active fault locations and constraints on the timing and size of earthquakes are important for understanding and mitigating seismic hazard in Aotearoa New Zealand. However, historical and instrumental records are too short to provide these data on most earthquake‐generating faults. Light detection and ranging (lidar) data provide us with the ability to
