Modeling maize growth and development in temperate and tropical agro‐climatic systems using MAIZSIM

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract MAIZSIM is a mechanistic maize (Zea mays L.) crop model with a two‐dimensional finite element‐based soil simulator, known for its detailed process‐based representation and minimal calibration requirements. While the model has been extensively applied in temperate agro‐climatic systems, its use in tropical areas has not been explored.

Economic value of in‐season information from N‐rich strip‐based nitrogen recommendations for winter wheat

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen overapplication remains a persistent challenge in winter wheat production, contributing to low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), higher production costs, and increased environmental externalities. Sensor‐based nitrogen management systems, such as the nitrogen‐rich strip (NRS), were developed to provide in‐season information on crop ...

Biofortification of finger millet with zinc and iron under biochar amendment: Effects of soil and foliar fertilization on yield and grain quality

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Biofortification is an effective strategy to improve the micronutrient content of staple crops. However, biofortification of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) with zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) has not been adequately investigated under biochar amendment.

Evaluating Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass seeding ratios for sod grown on plastic production

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Sod grown on plastic (SOP) is a sod established on a thin layer of growing medium atop a plastic sheet. It can be harvested with minimal damage to the roots, thereby reducing transplant shock. Kentucky bluegrass (KBG; Poa pratensis L.) is a commonly used cool‐season turfgrass species in sod production and sports fields. However, KBG is slow to

Initial Recovery of the Herbaceous Layer of a Temperate Deciduous Forest After 30 Years of Nitrogen Amendments: Implications for the Success of the Clean Air Act

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
A hysteretic model predicts a time lag in the response of herbaceous layer variables (e.g., cover, diversity) to decreasing N deposition. To the contrary, virtually all such variables displayed a surprising sensitivity to decreased N. ABSTRACT Increases in nitrogen (N) emissions during the 20th century resulted in the atmospheric deposition of N ...

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Potential Benefit of Predator Exclusion Fence for the Threatened Ground Wētā Hemiandrus fabella

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Although conservation practitioners in Aotearoa New Zealand are world‐leaders in predator exclusion fencing for threatened species conservation, the degree to which fences protect invertebrates has not been extensively studied, especially in non‐forested environments.

Do Exotic Versus Native Grasses or Increasing Plant Diversity Affect Larval Development of the Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii)?

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
The Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii) is an endangered flightless scarab that is extremely vulnerable to extinction because of its small single population at the Cromwell Chafer Beetle Nature Reserve. Captive rearing and translocation are being tested as additional tools to support existing conservation management of this species. To optimize

Agrowaste‐Derived Liquid Organic Fertilizer and Temperature Stabilization in Vertical Aeroponics for Crop Production

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Agrowaste‐derived liquid organic fertilizers (LOFs) combined with a silty clay layer improved nutrient efficiency and stabilized root‐zone temperature in vertical aeroponics. Formulation F4 achieved yield (484.8 g/plot) comparable to non‐organic fertilizer (505.3 g) with similar nutritional quality, demonstrating a sustainable alternative for efficient
