Ions on the Edge
Ions at the edge of water, exposed to air, don’t separate like they do when surrounded by water, offering insights for desalination and corrosion.

A pioneering study offers an easier approach to study how microbes work and could help scientists advance models of the cycling of elements and nutrients in frequently flooded soils.
Scientists develop a molecular map of metabolic products of bacteria in root nodules to aid sustainable agriculture.
Global data set shows monthly water use by irrigation, manufacturing, and other uses, helping researchers to analyze water use by region and season.
Researchers link root water uptake to root traits and assess (poor) performance of common models.
Predictions of the direct impacts of greenhouse gases must account for local temperature and humidity conditions.
Research offers evidence that microbes and organic matter raise toxin levels, potentially helping improve mercury monitoring.
Researchers find gusty winds increase surface evaporation that drives summer rainstorms in the Tropical West Pacific.
Nutrients increasingly moving to the deep ocean with strong climate warming could lead to drastic drops in surface ocean life and fishery yields.
