Fundamental tribological properties of ceramics [PDF]

open access: yes
When a ceramic is brought into contact with itself, another ceramic, or a metal, strong bond forces can develop between the materials. Adhesion between a ceramic and itself or another solid are discussed from a theoretical consideration of the nature of ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Management of Moderate‐to‐Highly Exuding Chronic Leg Ulcers With Superabsorbent Wound Dressings Versus Foams Dressings in Polish Settings: An Early‐Stage Cost‐Effectiveness Evaluation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nursing Practice, Volume 32, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic leg ulcers (CLUs) are complex wounds that often fail to heal within a reasonable timeframe, leading to prolonged morbidity, reduced quality of life and significant healthcare costs. The severity and exudate level of these wounds influence treatment choice and patient outcomes.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2778-2813, June 2026.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Literature search of publications concerning the prediction of dynamic inlet flow distortion and related topics [PDF]

open access: yes
Publications prior to March 1981 were surveyed to determine inlet flow dynamic distortion prediction methods and to catalog experimental and analytical information concerning inlet flow dynamic distortion prediction methods and to catalog experimental ...

Acquisitive root exploration strategies help maintain higher peak sap flux rates during summer drought, but more root biomass does not

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2933-2945, June 2026.
Summary Roots are responsible for soil water uptake, yet little is known about how variation in fine‐root traits relates to whole‐tree water movement, particularly during periods of drought. By combining a 3‐yr dataset monitoring sap flow rates with measures of fine‐root biomass, length, and morphology across 10 tree species, we addressed hypotheses ...

The interplay between hydraulic capacitance and stomatal regulation strategy affects soil–plant hydraulics and transpiration

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2988-3000, June 2026.
Summary Plant water storage contributes to transpiration, but it is unclear how its relevance in supporting transpiration depends on the stringency of stomatal regulation. Here, we show the compounding effect of stomatal regulation and hydraulic capacitance on plant water use, by means of a soil–plant hydraulic model and measurements of leaf water ...

Tomato plants control leaf sodium levels to limit damage by Spodoptera littoralis larvae

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3417-3427, June 2026.
Summary Sodium is an essential element for animal growth and survival. Here we test the hypothesis that plants exposed to insect feeding can translocate sodium from the feeding site to other plant organs as a defense strategy against phytophagous insects, which need sodium in their diet.
