N2 fixation is linked to the ability to encroach in African savanna trees

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 517-533, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Encroachment is a globally ubiquitous phenomenon, characterised by increasing indigenous tree densities in savanna and grassland. Encroachment has been attributed to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations fertilising tree growth and shifting the competitive balance ...

Toward eco‐sustainable afforestation in arid lands: key lessons from a 23‐year‐old arboretum of native and non‐native trees in Jordan

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction Afforestation is a key restoration strategy for mitigating land degradation and desertification in semiarid regions. However, evaluating the ecological impacts of tree species used for sustainable dryland restoration is crucial. For example, non‐native tree species may become invasive, with negative effects on native understory ...

Evaluation of Air Inlet Configuration's Effect on Biochar Properties From African Mesquite Pod Carbonization

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The suboptimal efficiency of current biomass conversion processes necessitates the optimization of biochar production methodologies to enhance desired biochar characteristics. In this study, an investigation was conducted to determine the optimal air inlet configuration within a top‐lit updraft gasifier system for enhancing biochar properties ...
