TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Systematic knowledge of the Mexican Crassulaceae is slowly progressing as data from new DNA regions and species sampling efforts increase. We compiled and generated new rbcL, matK, rps16, ITS/ITS2, and ETS DNA sequences and performed an updated phylogenetic reconstruction for a group of 131 Mexican Crassulaceae terminals from 11 of the 13 ...

Urban heat mitigation by roof surface materials during the East Asian summer monsoon
Environmental Research Letters, 2015 Roof surface materials, such as green and white roofs, have attracted attention in their role in urban heat mitigation, and various studies have assessed the cooling performance of roof surface materials during hot and sunny summer seasons.

Foliar Contributions to Methane and Nitrous Oxide Exchange in Urban Green Roof Systems
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.Biochar amendment of extensive green roof substrates enhanced foliar methane (CH4) uptake (~3×) and reduced nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions across native and stonecrop vegetation. City‐scale extrapolation to Toronto's permitted green roof area indicates measurable, management‐sensitive non‐CO2 mitigation within urban green infrastructure systems ...

Testing the Adaptive Significance of Personate Flowers in Penstemon (Plantaginaceae)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Floral diversity across plant lineages reflects evolutionary shifts in mating strategy and pollinator specificity. The genus Penstemon contains a handful of species that display personate flowers—a peculiar bee‐pollinated floral type characterized by an upward bulge in the ventral portion of the corolla tube that obstructs the floral opening.

Critic's Choice Essay: The Limestone Glade
Oklahoma Native Plant Record, 2001 Today, we're going to have a look at a rather special place I refer to as "my limestone glade". A glade is defined as a "grassy open area in a woods." Now, add to this a thin cover of poor soil on a solid, limestone base, a scattering of stunted elms ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Latent heat (λ $\lambda $ET) fluxes are a major component of the hydrological cycle globally. According to recent models and experimental observations, during droughts, wetter regions respond by increasing λ $\lambda $ET, while drier regions exhibit decreasing trends due to vegetation water stress.
