Understanding the potential uses of soil moisture information in the United States

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Soil moisture (SM) is an important component of the hydrological cycle that can impact runoff generation, evapotranspiration, crop growth, and wildfire behavior. Most studies, however, focus on technical aspects in a single sector, which makes it difficult to understand all of the current and potential benefits of SM information.

Vegetation biomass and landscape context influence web‐building spider dietary breadth in urban vacant lots

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 126-140, February 2026.
Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.

Characterising Spectral Sensitivity and the Role of Sunlight Intensity in Japanese Beetle (Popillia japonica) Surveillance and Monitoring (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 1, Page 46-55, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Japanese beetle (JB) Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) has been a significant invasive pest for over a century in North America. Several studies have reported that plants under direct sunlight are preferred and trap colour affects the number of beetles captured, indicating that visual stimuli influence JB behaviour. Despite this,
