Impact of Road Network Development on the Spatiotemporal Soil Erosion in the Three‐River Source Region

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a vital water conservation region in China, the Three River Source Region (TRSR) plays a critical role in safeguarding regional ecological security and ensuring the sustainable utilization of water resources. In this study, the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) was employed to quantify soil erosion in the study area across three ...

Pedo‐Climatic Controls on Soil Health Recovery Across Cultivation Chronosequences: Hydraulic Conductivity as a Potential Link Between Soil Structure, Microbial Biomass, and Nutrient Availability

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term cultivation can improve soil health, but recovery may not follow the same pathway across contrasting soil and climate conditions. A key unresolved question is whether soil health recovery is mainly associated with the release of physical–chemical constraints or with the gradual rebuilding of carbon, microbial biomass, and nutrient ...

Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Divergent benefits of urban nature: A comparison of new towns and unplanned settlements in South Tangerang, Indonesia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban nature provides essential ecosystem services, but their use and perception vary based on socio‐demographic factors, including settlement type, which reflects differences in socio‐economic and environmental conditions. This study compares how residents of new town developments (master‐planned areas) and unplanned settlements (organically ...
