ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a critical threat, impacting 20% of the world's irrigated lands and jeopardizing food security. In Ethiopia's Mirab Abaya district of the Gamo Zone, unsustainable irrigation methods exacerbate this issue. This paper examines local farmers' soil–water management systems and their awareness of salinization, aiming to educate

ABSTRACT A recent UN report describes many regions as facing ‘water bankruptcy,’ a condition in which available water resources can no longer meet existing demands. In practice, this means irrigation will likely bear the greatest burden of future water‐use reductions, a complicated and fraught decision to make given its critical role in food security ...

Transforming Agricultural Water Management for Healthy People and Planet: Thinking Beyond Water
ABSTRACT This paper develops the concept of Thinking Beyond Water, a transdisciplinary paradigm that reframes agricultural water management (AWM) as a systems catalyst for planetary health, equity, justice and resilience. Moving beyond conventional irrigation‐centric models, we reimagine AWM through integrative frameworks such as the planetary ...

Two Two‐Tier Stochastic Frontier Replications
ABSTRACT We replicate the two foundational studies which proposed the two‐tier stochastic frontier model, first in the cross‐sectional setting and then for the fixed effects panel data model. We explore matters of software then and now, different mathematical formulations of the likelihood, and alternative current software tools.

Developmental and Behavioral Effects of Arsenobetaine in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
ABSTRACT Arsenobetaine (AsB) is a prevalent organoarsenical in aquatic environments and is generally regarded as nontoxic. Despite its widespread occurrence, the developmental and neurobehavioral toxicity of AsB has not been systematically investigated.

ABSTRACT Lambda‐cyhalothrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely used in agriculture, but its potential to contaminate aquatic ecosystems and exert high toxicity on fish at low concentrations raises ecotoxicological concerns. While standard histopathological and biochemical assessments are common, the novel integration of pigment‐based ...

ABSTRACT 6PPD‐quinone (6PPD‐Q), a transformation product of the tire antioxidant 6PPD, causes acute mortality in several salmonid species, but its toxicity varies markedly among fish species. Disruption of vascular‐barrier integrity and inflammatory signaling has been proposed as a key mechanism of 6PPD‐Q toxicity.

Abstract BACKGROUND Recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli frequently results in the formation of inclusion bodies (IBs), which provide high protein accumulation but often require additional steps to recover functional protein. Although culture conditions strongly influence IB physicochemical and structural characteristics, the impact of ...

Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)
Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

Station‐Based Assessment of Sub‐Seasonal Climate Trends in the Tyrolean Alps (Austria)
In this study, we quantify the magnitude and significance of sub‐seasonal trends in the Tyrolean Alps (Austria) by collecting, processing and analysing meteorological observations from a dense network of climate stations. Our analysis indicates a warming rate of 0.43°C/dec over 1964–2023, greater sub‐seasonal trend variability when the analysis window ...
