Urbanization and Spatial Aggregation Impair Multifunctionality in Urban Vacant Lots

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study provides the first assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality in urban vacant lots. Although urbanization and spatial aggregation of vacant lots impaired multifunctionality, soil moisture improved it. ABSTRACT Urban shrinkage, driven by population decline rather than expansion, is an emerging concern in many developed ...

Tracking Baseflow Supply Dynamics Using SWOT Data From Small Groundwater‐Dominated Lakes

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Satellite‐based measurements of groundwater flow‐through kettle lakes efficiently track dynamic groundwater storage at local to regional scales (modified from USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2011–5137). ABSTRACT In situ surface‐water monitoring strategies are biased towards larger perennial streams and lakes and are generally not designed to ...

The Effect of Synthetic Cow Urine on Microorganisms and Their Potential Phosphorus Mining Activity in Rhizosphere and Bulk Soil

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 1, Page 69-80, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and aims Soil microbes adapt to varying nutrient inputs by modifying their utilization strategies, with root exudates and animal urine serving as key carbon (C) and nutrient sources in grasslands. Nonetheless, the specific mechanisms by which cow urine and root exudates influence microbial community and resource utilization remain ...

Microbial BioRemediation Database: A Comprehensive Database of Genes Involved in Microbial Bioremediation Processes

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
We present the Microbial BioRemediation (MBR) database, a curated resource of over 642,000 bacterial protein sequences involved in the degradation of 564 environmental pollutants. By enabling rapid functional profiling of microbial genomes and communities across both environmental and host‐associated ecosystems, MBR supports the identification of key ...
