The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 4094-4115, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

The Actus Reus of Attempts

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, Volume 89, Issue 5, Page 785-814, September 2026.
This paper gives an account of the actus reus for a criminal attempt. Conduct that is more than merely preparatory, we argue, intrudes on the same protected domain as the complete offence. This takes a normative approach to actus reus, focusing on the reasons that the defendant acted against.

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3096-3110, September 2026.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

Time‐Varying Hydroclimatic and Oceanic Controls on Arctic Submarine Groundwater Discharge Inferred Using Explainable AI

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD), an important component of coastal water and nutrient budgets, is challenging to monitor and predict in the Arctic given the remoteness and harsh conditions. Here, we used explainable artificial intelligence to quantify the time‐varying importance of hydroclimatic and oceanic drivers of SGD at an Arctic ...
