Design and Optimization of Low‐Salinity Alkali–Surfactant Flooding for Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery in Carbonate Reservoirs

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
The hybrid low‐salinity and AS flood with a maximum incremental oil recovery (OOIP basis) of up to 20%–25% was recorded above those of conventional operation waterflooding in oil‐wet carbonate core samples. ABSTRACT Oil‐wet carbonate reservoirs may also have low recovery efficiency in the Middle East where the reservoir temperature is high and there ...

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China

open access: yesGeological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2258-2278, August 2026.
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

Soil Loosening of Compacted Urban Tree Sites Using a Pneumatic Lance Injector: Quantifying Treatment Success Through Tree Morphology and Soil Structure Parameters via Terrestrial Laser Scanning

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 605-620, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Urban trees provide essential ecosystem services, but their growth and longevity are often limited by soil compaction. Although pneumatic lance injection (PLI) is increasingly promoted as a minimally invasive and efficient soil loosening technique, robust scientific evidence for its long‐term effectiveness remains limited.

Enhancing Rock Strength Prediction and Features Selection by Coupling Well Log Data and Deep Learning Approaches in Reservoir Geomechanics

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 4724-4738, 10 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate rock strength parameters play a vital role in petroleum and mining operations for sustainable drilling activities, and wellbore stability analysis. This study investigates the applicability of deep learning techniques for assessing data‐driven models, and to conduct parametric sensitivity examination for feature attributes ranking to ...

Two Distinct Growth Styles of Riedel Shear Zones in Cratonic Strike‐Slip Fault System, Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The kinematics and progressive evolution of Riedel shear zones have been extensively studied, yet the factors controlling their distinct evolutionary styles in natural settings remain debated. Understanding such fracture network architecture has great implications, such as predicting subsurface fluid flow and assessing seismic hazards.

Exhumation History of the Sangre de Cristo Range, Colorado, From Mid‐ to Low‐Temperature Thermochronology: New Insights Into Laramide Contraction and Oligocene–Miocene Extension in the Northern Rio Grande Rift, USA

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Sangre de Cristo Range in southern Colorado records a complex tectonic history that includes Late Cretaceous–Eocene Laramide contraction and Oligocene–Quaternary Rio Grande rift extension. We present new thermochronologic data (40Ar/39Ar, fission‐track, (U‐Th)/He) and thermal history models that provide insight into this polyphase history ...

The negative effects of an allelopathic invader on native plant photosynthesis are amplified after tree canopy closure

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2685-2700, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many invasive plants produce antimicrobial allelopathic compounds that disrupt plant–fungal symbioses of native species in the communities they invade, influencing nutrient and water provisioning that support photosynthesis.

An Archaeometric Approach to Reveal Organic Compounds via GC‐MS Analyses of Two Discovered Incense Burners at Daba Al‐Bayah

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 804-810, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study focuses on two terracotta incense burners discovered in the Daba Al‐Bayah necropolis in the Musandam Peninsula (Oman), associated with an Iron Age collective tomb (LCG‐2). Through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC‐MS), the organic residues preserved within these artifacts were analyzed to investigate their use and ...

Advancing the pneumatic method to assess xylem vulnerability to embolism among distinct growth forms

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1385-1398, August 2026.
Our study shows that pneumatic vulnerability curves can be constructed across contrasting growth forms, with P50 showing the closest agreement across methods. Repeated relative water content measurements improved water potential estimation for graminoid culms. Abstract Drought‐driven plant mortality is closely linked to xylem embolism. Building useful,
