Comparisons of soil suction induced by evapotranspiration and transpiration of S. heptaphylla [PDF]

, 2015
For a given evapotranspiration (ETr), both soil evaporation and plant transpiration (Tr) would induce soil suction. However, the relative contribution of these two processes to the amount of suction induced is not clear. The objective of this study is to

Evaluation of the ENVI-Met Vegetation Model of Four Common Tree Species in a Subtropical Hot-Humid Area

Atmosphere, 2018
Urban trees can significantly improve the outdoor thermal environment, especially in subtropical zones. However, due to the lack of fundamental evaluations of numerical simulation models, design and modification strategies for optimizing the thermal ...

Metarhizium anisopliaeMitigates the Phytotoxicity of Lead and Nanoplastics on Rice by Modifying Physiological, Transcriptomic, Metabolomic Activities, and Soil Microbiome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metarhizium anisopliae alleviates the phytotoxic effects of polyethylene nanoplastics (NP) and lead (Pb) in rice by decreasing Pb uptake, restoring antioxidant and hormonal equilibrium, and promoting growth. Additionally, the fungus modifies the rhizosphere microbiota, enhancing both contaminant tolerance and plant growth, thereby effectively ...

Water balance complexities in ephemeral catchments with different land uses: Insights from monitoring and distributed hydrologic modeling [PDF]

, 2016
Although ephemeral catchments are widespread in arid and semiarid climates, the relationship of their water balance with climate, geology, topography, and land cover is poorly known.

A CLE11b‐CLE16 Signaling Relay Mediates Root‐Shoot‐Root Crosstalk for Drought Adaptation in Common Bean

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel root‐shoot‐root signaling relay, mediated by CLE peptides, coordinates drought adaptation in common bean. Root‐derived PvCLE11b translocates acropetally to leaves, inducing PvCLE16 expression via PvTCP10. Leaf‐accumulated PvCLE16 triggers stomatal closure and translocates basipetally to modulate root architecture.

Water Status of Flower Buds and Leaves as Affected by High Temperature in Heat-Tolerant and Heat-Sensitive Cultivars of Snap Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Plant Production Science, 2003
In snap bean {Phaseolus vulgaris L.), flower and pod abscission causes yield reduction under high-temperature conditions. A high temperature enhances transpiration and thus may induce temporal water deficiency in plants in the daytime.

Diffusion Characteristics of Ru and Oxygen Vacancies in Ta2O5 for Resistive Random Access Memory Devices: A Density Functional Theory Investigation

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Atomistic analysis of ruthenium (Ru) and oxygen vacancy (OV) diffusion in Ta₂O₅‐based memristors is performed. DFT calculations demonstrate interstitial Ru in Ta₂O₅ has lower diffusion barriers and formation energies than OVs, enhancing mobility and stability.

All‐Inorganic Cesium Zinc Halides as Ultra‐Stable Lead‐Free Perovskite Electrodes for Li‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Here we explore the use of lead‐free metal halide perovskites in lithium ion batteries. Cesium zinc chloride and bromide both show reasonable discharge capacities and high stability compared to lead based perovskites. ABSTRACT Halide perovskites have recently gained attention for use as electrode materials in lithium‐ion batteries. However, lead halide
