Integrated routing of heavy electrical and diesel trucks in forest transports

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Fossil‐free forestry transports are important to reach climate goals. In Sweden, road transports account for around 50% of the industry's CO2 emissions and almost 20% of the road freight volumes. Previous studies have shown that electrification is a cost‐effective way for carbon abatement, while at the same time the requirements for ...

Evaluation of drone system for thinning operations–a case study in Sweden

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Thinning operations in forestry typically involve a two‐machine system (TMS) with a harvester and a forwarder. Its productivity in different forest conditions is well documented. To date, drones have been used for data collection and surveillance but not as an alternative to a TMS.

Vast, overlooked peat, and organic soils in Brazil's Cerrado: carbon storage, dynamics, and stability

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tropical peatlands are critical for climate mitigation due to their dual role as major carbon sinks and methane sources. In rainforests, high and stable rainfall supports peat accumulation in tropical climates. However, groundwater‐fed peatlands in seasonally dry tropical ecosystems remain poorly understood, despite their potential importance ...

Optimization of classification model for electric vehicle charging station placement using dynamic graylag goose algorithm

Frontiers in Energy Research
The study of electric vehicles (EVs) aims to address the critical challenges of promoting widespread adoption. These challenges include EVs’ high upfront costs compared to conventional vehicles, the need for more sufficient charging stations, limitations

Heat treatment duration affects in vitro‐induced photosynthetic impairment and development of necrotic leaf tissue in three Mediterranean oak species

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Longer lasting heat treatment durations induced photosynthetic impairment at lower temperatures and caused the development of proportionally more necrotic tissue at lower temperatures in leaves of three Mediterranean oak species. Abstract Short heat treatments are commonly used to estimate the leaf‐level thermal tolerance of tree species. The effect of

Effects of low‐tech, process‐based restoration on riparian plant communities and soil moisture of streams in the Northern Great Plains (NGP) of the United States

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Process‐based restoration is novel in livestock production systems of the Northern Great Plains (NGP), and limited region‐specific evidence can impede adoption. We investigated the effects of methods such as beaver dam analogs (BDAs) on NGP plant communities.

Review of Water Supply, Treatment and Distribution: Overcoming Challenges for Sustainable Management

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water management faces increasing challenges driven by population growth, accelerated urbanization and climate change, demanding integrated and sustainable approaches to ensure the preservation of water resources. Water scarcity and rising demand intensify the vulnerability of various regions, threatening both water supply and environmental ...

Clumped Isotope Temperature Reconstruction Using Stalagmite Drip Cups

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Application of clumped isotope palaeothermometry to speleothems (carbonate cave deposits, e.g., stalagmites and flowstones) has been restricted largely to subaqueous samples because of kinetic fractionation processes that occur during subaerial speleothem formation, which lead to erroneously high inferred temperatures.

Extending the MMMT Temporal Change Detection Tool to Assess Significant Shifts in Diverse Environmental Datasets

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines applications of the visual modified Mood's median test (MMMT) tool, which was originally developed for assessing temporal changes in streamflow regimes, to assess changes in a broader range of critically important environmental variables.
