Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Effective management of pig slurry in semi‐arid settings is critical to protect soils and aquifers. This study integrates multi‐profile electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) compiled into stitched 3D volumes with a calibration based on modified Archie's law derived from laboratory resistivity–moisture tests to obtain semi‐quantitative soil ...

Using Environmental Tracers to Reduce Uncertainty in Natural Flood Management Modeling
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Natural flood management (NFM) is a nature‐based solution that has grown in importance within flood risk policy and management over the last two decades. There is limited evidence on nature‐based solutions' effectiveness, and no accepted best practice on forecasting their performance. To explore NFM effectiveness, we built a hydrological model

Deep roots through time and crops: insight from five seasons at DeepRootLab
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2670-2688, May 2026.Summary Deep‐rooted crops accessing water and nutrients from deep soil layers enhance the resource base for crop production. However, studying these roots in field conditions is labour‐intensive, limiting research scope. We established a field root research facility with 48 plots for replicated experiments.
