Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1584-1598, September 2026.
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

A review of preferential flow and transport through root channels

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Preferential flow can contribute up to 80%–90% of the flow and transport in the vadose zone. The root channels are the most prevalent form of preferential pathways. They create an evolving network of preferential pathways and are biogeochemical hotspots due to preferential transport of nutrients and other organics, colonization of bacteria ...

Intensifying Flash Droughts Aggravate Vegetation Ecosystem Vulnerability in the Monsoon Region of China: Evidence From Resistance and Resilience Responses

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The resistance and resilience of vegetation determine its ability to maintain ecosystem functional stability under flash drought stress. However, a research framework that quantifies event‐scale response characteristics of vegetation resistance, resilience, and vulnerability remains lacking.

Three‐Dimensional Simulation of Tile Drainage System for Farmland: Quantifying Tile Drainage Impacts on Hydrological Cycle

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Tile drainage is widely adopted in the U.S. Midwest to manage excess soil water and sustain agricultural productivity, yet its impact on key water budget components—particularly evapotranspiration (ET)—remains insufficiently understood under varying drainage designs and climate conditions.

Spatiotemporal Patterns of the Vegetation‐Atmosphere Decoupling Coefficient Across the Contiguous United States

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The decoupling coefficient (Ω), a dimensionless metric that quantifies the balance between stomatal conductance (Gs) and aerodynamic conductance (Ga) in regulating evapotranspiration (ET), is key to understanding vegetation‐atmosphere interactions, which are fundamental to ecohydrological cycles and ecosystem functioning.
