Land‐Use Shapes Soil Fungal Communities and Functional Guilds in Tropical Forest Ecosystems

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Land‐use change is a major cause of biodiversity loss and soil degradation in tropical regions. The role of soil fungi, including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), though critical, is often overlooked. AMF communities across cropland, disturbed forest, and undisturbed forest vegetation in southwestern Nigeria were relatively resilient to land‐use ...

Food, Energy, and Health Implications of Agrivoltaic Farms

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The benefits of agrivoltaics (AV) are documented, with empirical evidence for their suitability for collocated energy generation, crop cultivation, and water savings, even for staple crops. What is lacking is a holistic modeling framework to design and optimize AV systems for specific crop types, micro‐environments, and panel configurations ...

Change in South Asian Summer Monsoon During MIS7, an Interglacial Complex of the Middle Pleistocene With High Obliquity Forcing

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon is a major component of the global climate system, yet its response to varying boundary conditions remains debated. We present pollen data from IODP Site U1446 (Bay of Bengal), recording vegetation changes in India's Core Monsoon Zone (CMZ) between 260 and 190 ka, spanning Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 7.

Deforestation Triggers State‐Dependent Cloud Regimes in the Amazon

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Amazon's arc of deforestation is a hotspot of rapid land‐cover change. Using 20 years of MODIS imagery combined with cloud property retrievals, CERES radiative fluxes, and ERA5 data, we show that deforestation consistently enhances low‐level cloudiness over non‐forest relative to nearby forest during the Amazon dry season.

Hot Droughts Increase the Likelihood and Impacts of Abrupt Drought‐to‐Pluvial Transitions Worldwide

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Hot droughts are intensifying under anthropogenic warming, yet whether extreme heat systematically alters the triggering of abrupt drought‐to‐pluvial transitions and their downstream impacts remains poorly understood. Here, we identify global drought‐to‐pluvial abrupt transition (DPAT) events and isolate the influence of antecedent thermal ...
