Impact of simulated drought and cover crop mixtures on subsequent spring wheat yield
Abstract Cover crops (CCs) are promoted as a mechanism for reducing soil erosion, enhancing soil fertility, and improving diversity in agricultural systems, but in drier climates, there are concerns about their impact on soil water availability for the subsequent crop.

The Brazilian Northeast shelters fragments of the Atlantic Forest that, although historically under‐sampled, are home to a high diversity of organisms. In this context, conidial fungi are crucial for ecological balance, standing out for their role in the decomposition of organic matter and nutrient cycling.

Seagrass meadows play critical roles in coastal ecosystems by stabilising sediments, supporting biodiversity and sequestering carbon, yet monitoring their recovery at scale is often constrained by the lack of scalable and repeatable approaches. This study applies an open‐source remote‐sensing framework to track long‐term changes in Zostera muelleri in ...

Managing pests by increasing predators through late termination of cover crops
Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem functioning of agroecosystems. By delaying cover‐crop termination, growers can effectively increase natural enemy populations and reduce the need for chemical controls. Abstract BACKGROUND Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem ...

Structure Formation in Dairy Cheese and Plant‐Based Cheese Analogues: A Review
In this review, structure formation in dairy cheese and plant‐based cheese analogues is analyzed following a multi‐length scale perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on the distinction between bottom‐up assembly, characteristic of natural dairy cheese, and top‐down structuring, typical of processed cheese and cheese analogues.

Prevalence of Mastitis in Cows and Raw Milk Microbial Contamination in Selected Districts, Tanzania
Cow milk produced in Tanzania suffers from poor quality due to bacterial contamination from mastitis udder predisposed by poor livestock husbandry and milk hygienic practices. The prevalence of mastitis was 75.6%, with a milk bacterial contamination rate of 78% and resistance to multiple antimicrobials. To safeguard the dairy industry and public health,

Abstract Objectives Exercise‐induced affective responses (ARs) may encourage people with chronic diseases (PCD) to engage in future physical activity (PA). This study examined whether AR timing during exercise predicts daily moderate‐to‐vigorous PA (MVPA) in PCD and explored two mediating pathways: the reflective affect processing pathway (via ...

When Jobs Change: Skills Mismatch and the Value of Training
ABSTRACT This article examines the impact of rapidly changing skill requirements on skills mismatch in Europe and the role of training in mitigating adverse effects. Using data on approximately 70 million online job vacancies, we estimate the extent to which occupational skill requirements changed between 2019 and 2023 across European Union (EU ...

Human Capital 4.0: Readiness of Initial Vocational Education Programmes in Italy and Germany
ABSTRACT The rapid pace of technological innovation and the advent of Industry 4.0 have profoundly transformed labour markets and the nature of work. This paper examines the preparedness of Initial Vocational Education and Training (IVET) programmes in Germany and Italy to meet the demands of Human Capital 4.0. Utilising a comparative analysis of three
