The role of changing land use and irrigation scheduling in groundwater depletion mitigation in a humid region

Agricultural Water Management
Many agricultural production regions in the world have been experiencing groundwater resource depletion, which threatens water and food security if mitigation practices are not developed and implemented. To understand how changing land use and irrigation

Flood hydrological process and its effective control measures in the high-altitude depressions of peak-cluster areas in Lijiang River

Carsologica Sinica
With a length of 83 km and an area of about 624 km2, the high-altitude karst depressions in peak-cluster areas are mainly distributed in the middle reaches of the Lijiang River from Daxu town to Yangshuo county, Guilin. There are thousands of depressions

Engineered Protein‐Based Ionic Conductors for Sustainable Energy Storage Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Rational incorporation of charged residues into an engineered, self‐assembling protein scaffold yields solid‐state protein films with outstanding ionic conductivity. Salt‐doping further enhances conductivity, an effect amplified in the engineered variants. These properties enable the material integration into an efficient supercapacitor.

Characterization and Beneficiation of Indigenous Marble Waste to Remove Siliceous and Ferrous Impurities

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, marble waste (MARWAS) beneficiation was done using thermal, physical, and chemical means. The MARWAS samples collected from dumping yards of Kishangarh and Revdar districts of Rajasthan (India) and Ambaji district of Gujarat (India) were characterized by chemical composition analysis, scanning electron microscopy with energy ...

Orbital and eustatic control of basin hydrology during the first stage of the Messinian Salinity Crisis

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The paleo‐hydrology of the Sorbas Basin (SE Spain) and the wider Mediterranean region during the deposition of the Primary Lower Gypsum (PLG) stage of the Messinian Salinity Crisis, from ~5.97 to ~5.60 Ma, was affected by tectonics, precession‐forced climate oscillations, and eustatic sea‐level change.

Rainfall increases conformity and strength of species–area relationships

Ecography, EarlyView.
The positive relationship between species richness and area is regarded as one of the few laws in ecology. Therefore, deviations from predictable species–area scaling, evident as high residual variance in species–area curves, are often interpreted as anomalous behaviour.

Adoption timing of water conserving irrigation practices in the Mississippi Delta: An application of duration analysis

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract Irrigation drives the decline in the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer. Rapid adoption of water‐conserving practices (WCPs) is key. Duration analysis of the adoption of computerized (polypipe) hole selection (CHS) and center‐pivot (CP) irrigation in the Mississippi Delta shows that: NRCS funding for WCPs and crop acreage (cotton for CP
