The Earth's Greatest Porous Media

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract How deeply does modern meteoric water circulate into the continental crust? How deep is the Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the top layer of the continental lithosphere that co‐evolves with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, extending from vegetation canopy down to fresh bedrock and the base of active groundwater circulation?

Evaluating putative lncRNA‐mediated ceRNA regulatory network involving miR396 and miR319 in maize leaf growth under Fusarium verticillioides infection

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
The final leaf length of maize (Zea mays) was reduced due to the pathogenic fungus Fusarium verticillioides infection as a result of increased expression of miR396 in the elongation zone and decreased expression of miR319 in the mature zone of maize leaves, leading to antagonistic regulation of the expression of the GRF15 and TCP38, respectively ...

With a little help from my ‘ordinary friends’: relationships, networks, and resilience in Masisi, North Kivu, eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Are social networks the key to understanding resilience in conflict? Recent studies suggest so, but relational research in conflict‐affected areas is rare. What exists stresses the importance of small circles of close family members, trusted friends, and co‐ethnic persons/groups, but tends to overlook their aggregate effect.
