Optimizing water-use efficiency under elevated CO₂: A meta-analysis of crop type, soil modulation, and enrichment methods by Ali Mokhtar, Hongming He, Samar Attaher, Ali Salem, Muneer Alam

“…Key findings reveal that: (1) C₃ crops, such as potato and tomato, show significantly greater increases in WUE compared to C₄ crops like maize, with effect sizes of 13.96 and 7.02 for plant-level WUE (WUEₚ), suggesting that C₃ crops may be more advantageous in water-limited environments due to reduced photorespiration under eCO₂; (2) soil type substantially modulates WUE responses, with clay soils, due to their high water-holding capacity, demonstrating the highest WUE enhancements (effect sizes of 7.87 for WUEₚ and 12.54 for yield WUE, WUEᵧ), while sandy soils, characterized by rapid drainage, showed limited improvements; and (3) greenhouse and growth chamber studies displayed the highest WUE improvements, while FACE experiments, which better replicate real-world conditions, indicated smaller WUE increases due to environmental variability, underscoring the need for a hybrid approach that merges controlled data with field insights to develop practical, water-efficient agricultural strategies. …”

Amplified impact of contact uniformity on the performance of low-catalyst-loading fuel cells by Yuanzhe Ma, Xuanyu Wang, Ziliang Deng, Yongzhen Wang, Nanfeng Zheng, Kai Han, Zipeng Zhao

“…The experimental data is consistent with the theoretical study and can be explained as lower catalyst loading comes along with a lower volume fraction of conductive carbon support and fewer platinum sites, making the electrochemical reaction’s ohmic and mass transfer overpotential more sensitive to the environmental change. More specifically, the theoretical study shows that the MEA with lower loading (0.04 mgPGM/cm2) suffers a more than doubled ohmic overpotential increase compared to the MEA with higher loading (0.12 mgPGM/cm2) when average contact pressure reduces from 0.8 MPa to 0.2 MPa. …”
