Habitable Zones in Extrasolar Planetary Systems [PDF]

, 2002
If we ask the question about the possible existence of the life outside the Earth, we first have to determine the habitable zone (HZ) for our solar system. The HZ of distances between a main sequence star and an Earth-like planet is roughly defined as the range of mean orbital radii which imply moderate planetary surface temperatures suitable for the ...

Short‐stature maize systems reduce carbon intensity of grain production by an average of 13% compared to commercially relevant tall comparators

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The sustainable intensification of crop production provides more output with similar or fewer inputs, and therefore helps to produce food, feed, fiber, and fuel more efficiently. While short‐stature maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids have been shown to be more climate resilient, with reductions in yield‐scaled greenhouse gas production due to reduced

Phylogenomic Barcoding of Soil Seed Bank–Persistent and Wind‐Dispersed Non‐Native Plant Species in South Georgia

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change and invasive species are leading drivers of biodiversity loss, with island ecosystems being especially vulnerable. South Georgia, a remote sub‐Antarctic island, is 170 km long with approximately 30,000 ha of vegetated coastal areas, as snow and ice dominate the inland regions.

Solar System Migration Points to a Renewed Concept: Galactic Habitable Orbits

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Astrophysical evidence suggests that the Sun was born near 5 kpc from the Galactic center, within the corotation radius of the Galactic bar, around 6–7 kpc.

Sensitive Environmental DNA Methods for Low‐Risk Surveillance of At‐Risk Bumble Bees

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques have been proposed as a means of sensitive, non‐lethal pollinator monitoring. To date, however, no studies have provided evidence that eDNA methods can achieve detection sensitivity on par with traditional pollinator surveys.

Streaks on martian slopes are dry

Nature Communications
Slope streaks are dark albedo features on martian slopes that form spontaneously and fade over years to decades. Along with seasonally recurring slope lineae, streak formation has been attributed to aqueous processes, implying the presence of transient ...

Biodiversity–food trade‐offs when agricultural land is spared from production

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 254-284, January 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes, the world's predominant land use, could involve sparing, or setting aside, agricultural land from production, implying biodiversity–food trade‐offs. Employing bird species and agricultural data in two panel data sets, we evaluate the extent of set‐aside's trade‐offs in England between 1992 ...

Toward Energy Justice Principles for Sustainable Lithium‐Ion Battery Technologies

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Prefeasibility life cycle assessment is used to evaluate the environmental, social, and supply chain impacts of lithium‐ion battery technologies, and the concept of distributional energy justice is discussed. By comparing chemistries and use cases, it reveals inequities in material sourcing and technology access.
