Comparative study of SPI and SPEI drought indices for meteorological drought assessment in Mauritius

open access: yesJàmbá
Drought is a global issue affecting many countries, including Mauritius, which is vulnerable to this natural hazard. This study compares two robust drought indices: the Standardised Precipitation Index (SPI) and its variant the Standardised Precipitation

Engineering Bacillus megaterium for production of functional intracellular materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Over the last 10-15 years, a technology has been developed to engineer bacterial polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) inclusions as functionalized beads, for applications such as vaccines, diagnostics and enzyme immobilization. This has been achieved by

Wallace's pARCs—Making Climate, Climate Change and Biodiversity Data Available to Protected Area Managers and Conservation Planners With an Example From Biebrza National Park, Poland

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
A spatial representation of the potential ‘adaptation effort’ that might be needed to maintain at least 75% of the species modelled in Biebrza National Park, Poland (white outline), at 1.5°C. The darker the green shading, the less adaptation would be needed.

Variation in Climate Shapes Seedling Recruitment Along Resource Gradients in a Northern Hardwood Forest

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Seedling counts over 26 years revealed that wetter‐site temperate tree species struggle to recruit in warmer, drier years, whereas drier‐site species are more climate‐tolerant. Shadier forests buffered seedlings from heat and drought. Local soils and canopy cover strongly shaped outcomes, revealing considerable differences among species in climate ...

Can species adapt to drought using multiple strategies? Lessons from the California poppy

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2918-2932, June 2026.
Summary Plants can escape drought by completing life cycles early, tolerate drought by increasing physiological limits, or avoid drought stress by obtaining or using water more efficiently. It remains unclear whether strategies vary within species across their distributional ranges due to trade‐offs, and whether species can exhibit plasticity in ...

Hypoxic and Fe‐Responses are Regulated by the ERFVII Factors and the PCO Branch of the N‐Degron Pathway According to Iron Availability

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 3363-3380, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In plants, iron homeostasis and oxygen metabolism are strictly related, indeed several Fe‐requiring enzymes catalyze reactions that also involve O2 as a reagent, product, entry or end point of the pathway. Oxygen sensing itself relies on the Fe‐dependent enzymes Plant cysteine oxidases.
