Studies of the molecular basis of soil water repellency. [PDF]
, 2005 To identify the causes of water repellency in soils, a range of water repellent soils and wettable control soils, sampled from five countries (Australia, Greece, Portugal, The Netherlands, U.K.), were studied.

Wearable photovoltaic textiles: From device technologies to long‐term reliability
InfoScience, EarlyView.Wearable photovoltaic textiles are highlighted as reliable energy sources that combine solar cell efficiency with hierarchical textile‐specific mechanical and environmental durability. Structural and encapsulation strategies, including planarization, neutral‐axis engineering, and advanced barrier designs, enable waterproofing, washability, UV shielding,

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Plants harbor complex microbial communities that are fundamental to their health and productivity. Among them, endophytic fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum establish mutualistic associations, offering dual benefits as plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.

Post‐Fire Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics: Decline and Recovery Over Two Decades
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wildfire can significantly alter soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in forest ecosystems, with complex temporal patterns following fire events. However, research on post‐fire SOC recovery remains limited, particularly in dry‐warm valley regions that are prone to frequent forest fires.

Moisture variability resulting from water repellency in Dutch soils [PDF]
, 1998 The present study suggests that many soils in the Netherlands, in natural as well as in agricultural areas, may be water repellent to some degree, challenging the common perception that soil water repellency is only an interesting aberration.

Adhesion of Hydrogels to Fluoropolymers by Electrophoretic Fluoropolymer Coating
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Both fluoropolymers and hydrogels are generally regarded as difficult‐to‐bond materials; however, adhesion between them was achieved by coating the hydrogel with a fluorinated copolymer. ABSTRACT Although hydrogels are widely used in bio‐integrated devices and soft systems, their robust adhesion to polymers with low surface energies remains a ...

Uptake, metabolism, and bioremediation of neonicotinoid insecticides in soil–plant systems: A review
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.This review summarizes the uptake and metabolic transformation of neonicotinoid insecticides in plants, showing that some metabolites exhibit higher toxicity. We also critically assess promising bioremediation strategies using microbes and plant–microbe interactions to reduce residue contamination.
