Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 3, September 2025.Abstract Stemflow hydrodynamics is the study of water movement along the exterior surface area of plants. Its primary goal is to describe water velocity and water depth along the stem surface area. Its significance in enriching the rhizosphere with water and nutrients is not in dispute.

Hydraulics and Structural Mechanics Jointly Shape Root‐to‐Leaf Scaling of Xylem Conduit Traits
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page 6912-6923, September 2025.ABSTRACT Xylem conduit morphology is shaped by the challenges of minimizing hydraulic resistance and preventing conduit wall collapse during vertical sap transport. While hydraulic theories predict that conduits widen from tip to base to minimize resistance, theory has not addressed how collapse prevention influences vertical variation in conduit ...

Impact of parasite sympatry on the geographic mosaic of coevolution [PDF]
, 2006 Slave-making ants are specialized social parasites that steal the young from colonies of their host species to augment their slave supply. The degree of parasite–host specialization has been shown to shape the trajectory along which parasites and hosts ...

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract While both daytime and nighttime temperatures are increasing with climate change, few studies have experimentally investigated their differential effects under field conditions. We conducted a factorial field experiment examining how day‐ and night‐warming impact the growth, survivorship, and behavior of cabbage white caterpillars (Pieris ...

Mechanical Evaluation and XRD/TG Investigation on the Properties of Wooden Dowel Welding
BioResources, 2017 Mechanical properties related to wooden dowel welding were studied using five different moisture content (MC) values. Birch wooden dowels and Chinese larch substrates were used in this study. A 2% MC for the wooden dowels and a 12% MC for the substrates resulted in the highest pullout resistance.
