A Coupled Chemohydraulic Model of a Hydration Experiment

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a model for the hydration of periclase into brucite during water infiltration into a dry, pure periclase core. The hydration process proceeds in two stages. In Phase I, an infiltration front advances through the core while simultaneously triggering the hydration reaction.

Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.
