Efficiency of Biochar and Bio-Fertilizers Derived from Maize Debris as Soil Amendments
Unsuitable handling of crop residues can result in many environmental problems such as air pollution and soil degradation. In the northern parts of Thailand, such problems are partly caused by the burning of agricultural debris after harvesting.

A rapid cosmic-ray increase in BC 3372-3371 from ancient buried tree rings in China [PDF]
Cosmic rays interact with the Earth's atmosphere to produce $^{14}$C, which can be absorbed by trees. Therefore, rapid increases of $^{14}$C in tree rings can be used to probe previous cosmic-ray events.

Growth trends reveal the forest structure during Roman and Medieval times in Western Europe: a comparison between archaeological and actual oak ring series (Quercus robur and Quercus petraea) [PDF]
At some point in time, man has influenced nearly all forests in Western Europe. Most of the original forest cover has been converted to arable land and pastures, or has been cut for the supply of firewood and construction timber.

Teak Log Coffins in Northwest Thailand: Dated by Dendrochronology and 14Cwiggle Matching
Log coffins have been discovered in caves and rockshelters in the Pang Ma Pha district, Mae Hong Son province, Northwestern Thailand. Most are made of teak wood. Many researchers have used the 14C method to determine their age.

Seven centuries of rainfall reconstructed from Scots Pine ring width in sub-Arctic Sweden [PDF]
As the sub-Arctic and Arctic regions undergoes rapid changes, understanding its hydroclimate history is more critical than ever. A limited availability of moisture-sensitive proxy data severely constrains our insights, underscoring the urgent need for ...

Chronology of Central European Impulses in the Volga Forest Region: Fatyanovo and Abashevo Cultures
There is a difference in chronology based on radiocarbon dating and historical dates associated with Near Eastern written sources. With the introduction of AMS dating, this gap has become smaller, but has not disappeared.

Exploring site formation and building local contexts through wiggle-match radiocarbon dating: re-dating of the Firth of Clyde Crannogs, Scotland [PDF]
There are at least four wooden intertidal platforms, also known as marine crannogs, in the Firth of Clyde, on the west coast of Scotland. The interpretation of these sites partly depends on their dating and, if coeval, they could point to the presence of

ABSTRACT Exhaustive long‐term and large‐scale ice jam records are scarce in most cold river environments. Many discrete events occur in small, sparsely populated river systems and are poorly represented in open‐source databases. These observation biases are transferred to predictive models of ice jams and the collective understanding of their formation
