Tribological Behavior of Additively Manufactured Dual‐Material Polymer Composites
Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Layered architecture, tribological performance, and wear mechanisms of additively manufactured dual‐material hybrid polymer composites. ABSTRACT This study presents a novel material design approach for wear‐resistant sandwich‐structured hybrid composites fabricated using dual‐nozzle fused deposition modeling (FDM). By co‐printing commercially available

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Rodent outbreaks have significant socio‐economic impacts worldwide, and anticipation is crucial for timely management decisions. We combined rainfall and periodicity data to provide an early warning signal of vole population growth in Mediterranean farmlands, a year in advance of a peak.

Revisiting bare‐ground evaporation in a high‐resolution numerical weather prediction system
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.An improved method is proposed to parameterize evaporation in numerical weather prediction models. The figure shows dew‐point temperature forecast error (standard deviation of forecast error and bias) versus lead time over the North Plains region during spring 2022 for three parameterizations: CTL, the α$$ \alpha $$ method of Jacquemin and Noilhan; IFS:
