Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lateral carbon transport induced by soil erosion is a key component of the global carbon cycle. Over the past 50 years, ecological restoration projects in the Loess Plateau of China have increased vegetation coverage. However, the effects of land use, precipitation variability, and landscape factors on lateral carbon transport remain unclear ...

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2019 A better understanding of the spatial variability of soil nitrogen content is required to achieve the best management in precision agriculture. The purpose of this research was to determine the spatial variability of soil nitrogen content based on ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Deep‐rooted plantations are central to dryland ecological restoration, yet their long‐term cultivation drives widespread deep soil desiccation, threatening ecosystem sustainability. While artificial water replenishment is a key deep soil desiccation mitigation strategy, the depth‐dependent positional effect of stored water on eco‐hydrological ...

EFFECT OF SOIL FATIGUE ON FROST RESISTANCE OF ONE-YEAR OLD APPLE-TREE SHOOTS, TOPAZ CULTIVAR
Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2008 The presented studies have shown the effect of soil fatigue on the decrease of resistance to low temperatures in one-year old apple-tree shoots. The highest frost resistance was demonstrated by the shoots of apple-trees grown in localities so far not ...

Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

Apple mycotoxins: From orchard to processed apple puree
Fungal BiologyApples and apple-derived products can be contaminated with patulin and, to a lesser extent, aflatoxin B1 and fumonisins. Fruits were collected from Golden Delicious and Imperatore trees in three orchards in Veneto, Northern Italy, and analysed for the presence of fungi and mycotoxins.

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Wind turbines influence several abiotic conditions in the environments they are sited in and may influence the behavior and movement of insect pollinators. It is unknown how operating turbines influence plant–pollinator interactions. To investigate if pollination dynamics could be affected by the presence of wind turbines, we recorded videos of ...
