The interplay between hydraulic capacitance and stomatal regulation strategy affects soil–plant hydraulics and transpiration

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2988-3000, June 2026.
Summary Plant water storage contributes to transpiration, but it is unclear how its relevance in supporting transpiration depends on the stringency of stomatal regulation. Here, we show the compounding effect of stomatal regulation and hydraulic capacitance on plant water use, by means of a soil–plant hydraulic model and measurements of leaf water ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

New Insight Into the Evolutionary Arms Race Between Spider Egg Sac Pseudoparasitoids and Active Maternal Care by the Spiders

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We analysed various points of the counter‐adaptations of the spider egg sac pseudoparasitoid and spiders exhibiting active maternal care, utilising the ichneumonid Hidryta fusiventris and the wolf spider Pardosa lugubris. We observed that there is a time shift of approximately 1 month between the first egg sac of P.

Modeling of Root Water Uptake Dynamics and Solute Movement in Agricultural Fields Using Crank–Nicolson Finite Difference Method

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study successfully developed and validated an open‐source; Python‐based numerical framework for simulating the coupled dynamics of root water uptake and solute transport in variably saturated soils. The model uniquely integrates a crop‐specific exponential RWU function within a stable Crank–Nicolson finite difference scheme. ABSTRACT Understanding

Integrated VES–ERI–MASW‐Geotechnical Investigation for Building Foundation Site Suitability at the Proposed Wachemo University Referral Hospital, Hosanna, Central Ethiopia

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Integrated VES, ERI, and MASW surveys, constrained by boreholes, delineate a central low‐resistivity/low‐V s weak corridor and more competent volcanic strata at depth. The eastern sector offers preferable foundation conditions, while identified weak zones require ground improvement or deep foundations to mitigate differential‐settlement risk.
