Impacts of reclamation approaches on plant establishment in an arid environment during copper mine revegetation

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Revegetation using native vegetation is a commonly used technique to reclaim landscapes degraded by mining activities. Revegetation efforts in the arid Southwestern United States face physical, geochemical, hydrological, and biological challenges unique to drylands.

Diversification with minor oilseeds: Effects on system productivity and nitrogen use efficiency in semi‐arid Canadian prairies

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Diversified cropping systems in the semi‐arid Canadian prairies comprise major cereal, oilseed, and pulse crops. Further diversification with minor oilseeds, such as oriental (Brassica juncea), industrial (Brassica carinata L.), and yellow (Sinapis alba L.) mustard, camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz], and flax (Linum usitatissimum L ...

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

Brazil Nut Flour as a Functional Ingredient: Effects on Texture, Composition and Sensory Profile of Reduced‐Sugar Gluten‐Free Cookies

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 185-196, March 2026.
Graphical abstract of the characterization of Brazil nut flour (BNF) and the impact of its addition on the nutritional and sensory properties of gluten‐free and low‐sugar cookies. The results show that BNF contributed to an improved nutritional quality of the cookies and enhanced overall product acceptance.

Thermo‐Oxidative Stability of Materials: Assessment and Predictions

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
The article summarizes long‐term stability predictions based on non‐Arrhenian extrapolation of fast high‐temperature thermoanalytical measurements. The theory is applicable for the lifetime estimation of objects made of plastics and other organic materials which can be employed in the conservation of plastic artifacts.

Human Eye Visualization With an Attention Mechanism: Enhancing Flower Detection and Classification With Visual Attention and Photometric Principles Inspired by Human Vision

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates a flower classification model relying on the human visual system. The model captures images, simulates visual attention and photometric perception, extracts features of shape and color, and classifies flowers by using an optimized neural network that enhances recognition accuracy by mimicking the human eye's focusing ...

Contribution of Ruminal Fungi, Archaea, Protozoa, and Bacteria to the Methane Suppression Caused by Oilseed Supplemented Diets

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Dietary lipids can suppress methane emission from ruminants, but effects are variable. Especially the role of bacteria, archaea, fungi and protozoa in mediating the lipid effects is unclear. In the present in vitro study, archaea, fungi and protozoa were

Intercropping Chickpea with Flax in Saskatchewan, Canada, Reduces Ascochyta Blight

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chickpea is a nutritious crop grown in drier parts of Saskatchewan. The disease Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei, makes production risky. Small plot trials at four Saskatchewan locations from 2018 to 2022 aimed to test the hypothesis that intercropping chickpea with flax reduces Ascochyta blight.
