Continuous Stem Water Potential Measurements With Microtensiometry Reveal Species Identity and Soil Matric Potential Control of Stem Water Potential in Temperate Forests

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water potential gradients govern water fluxes, and plants respond with species‐specific hydraulic traits that influence ecosystem function. While understanding these traits is key to predicting vegetation responses to climate change, traditional methods like the pressure chamber limit temporal resolution and continuity.

Carbon and nutrient inputs by litterfall into three chestnut high forest stands in Northern Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Litter fall in three high forest chestnut stands, located in different soil types, in Bornes, Marão and Padrela, northern Portugal, with 45, 63 and 65 years old, respectively, was collected during two years in December by a 0.5x0.5 m square method.

Honey as a Natural Flavorful Product: A Comprehensive Review of Its Potential Biological Activities and Recent Studies

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Health impacts of honey. ABSTRACT Honey is a natural and nutritious product of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) with low water content. Its color ranges from white to amber, with taste varying accordingly. The chemical form and viscosity of honey depend on its composition.

Quantifying rainfall–runoff relationships on the Dera Calcic Fluvic Regosol ecotope in Ethiopia

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2008
Abstract Droughts, resulting in low crop yields, are common in the semi-arid areas of Ethiopia and adversely influence the well-being of many people. The objective of this study was to assess the benefit that in-field rainwater harvesting (IRWH) would have, compared to conventional tillage, on maize yields on a semi-arid ecotope at Dera situated on ...

Disentangling the Roles of Microbial Traits and Mineral Protection in Regulating Temperature Sensitivity of Soil Carbon Decomposition in Eroded and Depositional Agricultural Soils

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition (Q10) governs the fate of soil carbon under global warming. Although erosion redistributes soil carbon at scales comparable to the terrestrial carbon sink, how erosion reshapes Q10 across large regional scales remains elusive.

Trait-mediated diversification in nematode predator–prey systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nematodes are presumably the most numerous Metazoans in terrestrial habitats. They are represented at all trophic levels and are known to respond to nutrient limitation, prey availability, and microbial resources.

Recurrent hot droughts cause persistent legacy effects in a temperate Scots Pine forest

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 622-636, April 2026.
A series of hot drought events caused persistent legacy effects in a Scots Pine forest, with severe negative impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes. Abstract Recent hot‐dry events have caused significant impacts and legacy effects in temperate ecosystems. Here, we investigate legacy effects of the 2018 hot drought on a Pinus sylvestris L.

Non-legume plant species effects on soil nematodes abundance in a Regosol

open access: yesAgropecuária Técnica, 2019
The effects of a non-legume cover crop on total soil nematode abundance and soil groups of nematodes were investigated in a long-term field study. We compared total abundance of soil nematode and the abundance of both free-living soil nematode and root-feeding soil nematode under three different treatments (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.
