Connectivity between regulating soil-based ecosystem services, soil properties, and environmental factors within agricultural land
(Frontiers, 2026) Pindral, Sylwia; Wnuk, Agnieszka; Coblinski, João Augusto; Smreczak, Bożena
Soils create a complex terrestrial system, in which many biotic and abiotic factors cross and interact with each other. The capacity of the soils to provide soil ecosystem services (SESs) varies according to their properties. Regulating soil-based ecosystem services (rSESs) plays a key role in the environmental stability maintenance, agricultural productivity, and the resistance of soil to climate and anthropogenic pressures. Despite the increasing importance of this research topic, the interconnections within the rSESs are weakly recognised, especially in the national spatial scale. For this reason, in the presented research, we aimed to find relations between individual SESs categorised as rSESs, soil properties, and environmental indicators. To achieve this, the distribution of individual SES values among the soil agronomy categories and land-use classes were analysed. The analysis and statistical evaluation were performed for Polish agricultural land as an example for the Central Europe pedoclimatic zone. Our results confirmed that soil texture plays a key role in the distribution of rSESs. However, rSESs do not function as an independent phenomenon, but rather as a self-regulating system. The role of soil texture in it is primal, supported strongly by the soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, available water capacity (AWC), and vegetation density. The findings indicate that soil of high SOC and fine texture can play a crucial role as the buffer limiting and depleting the consequences of climate changes. All these results confirmed the functioning of soil as a very complex system regulating cycles and flows of water, energy, and nutrients in the environment. We believe that the approach presented in this research will become an important base for the creation of soil protection plans, new soil-management strategies, and policies adapted to the ongoing climate and land-use changes.

Historical geomorphology and structural glaciology of south-western Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Antarctica
(Taylor & Francis, 2026) Jennings, Stephen J. A.; Pudełko, Rafał
This study presents a 1:8000 geomorphological and structural glaciological map of southwestern Admiralty Bay, King George Island, based on a 1979 aerial survey. The map covers an area of 37.9 km2 and documents 16 462 structures and landforms. Large-scale landscape characteristics are determined by bedrock geology sculpted by overlying ice masses. The glaciers can be broadly separated into highly-crevassed tidewater glaciers, and less dynamic land-terminating glaciers. Proglacial areas contain ice-cored terrain abandoned by receding ice masses, with paraglacial and periglacial features superimposed on larger-scale landforms. Between 1979 and 2025, glacier cover decreased by 7.6 km2 or 25.5%, with the recession of tidewater glaciers exposing 5.8 km of new coastline and increasing marine surface area by 0.9 km2. This map provides a historical foundation for glaciological and landscape evolution studies, in addition to investigations that monitor changing terrestrial and marine ecosystems in a warming climate.

The impact of Paulownia– buckwheat intercropping on the biodiversity of different living biota
(Nature Portfolio, 2026) Liszewski, Marek; Jama-Rodzeńska, Anna; Woźniak, Małgorzata; Gębarowska, Elżbieta; Siebielec, Sylwia; Twardowski, Jacek; Gruss, Iwona; Tendziagolska, Ewa; Kuc, Piotr; Chorbiński, Paweł; Zalewski, Dariusz; Gałka, Bernard
Intercropping has emerged as a promising strategy to improve agroecosystem biodiversity and mitigate some adverse effects associated with intensive monoculture systems. This study evaluated weed infestation and biodiversity responses in a Paulownia–buckwheat intercropping system compared with buckwheat monoculture under the environmental conditions of southwestern Poland. Weed species composition, abundance, and biomass were assessed at different growth stages of buckwheat. Selected agroecosystem components, including soil microorganisms, soil mesofauna, and pollinator abundance, were evaluated. The intercropping system increased Collembola diversity and Acari abundance, while higher diversity and richness of segetal plant species were also observed compared with monoculture. Higher bacterial abundance and dehydrogenase activity were recorded under intercropping, whereas fungal community composition remained generally stable between cultivation systems. Several melliferous weed species were identified within the intercropping system, potentially supporting pollinator activity. Although no statistically significant differences were observed in pollinator-related parameters, nectar productivity and sugar availability tended to be higher under intercropping conditions, suggesting that the Paulownia–buckwheat system may contribute to maintaining pollinator activity and supporting agroecosystem biodiversity. No significant differences in buckwheat yield or biometric traits were found between cultivation systems. Overall, the results indicate that Paulownia–buckwheat intercropping may enhance selected components of agroecosystem biodiversity without reducing crop productivity.
