Dominant plants drive soil organic carbon storage in three gorges reservoir’s water-level fluctuation zone [PDF]

Carbon Balance and Management
The water level fluctuation zone (WLFZ) of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) represents a unique ecotone shaped by reversed hydrological rhythms that significantly influence plant dynamics and soil organic carbon (SOC) processes. However, the contribution

Influence of altitudinal zones on soil nutrient dynamics and fertility constraints in agricultural terrains of Yunnan, China [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Altitudinal variation influences soil fertility by modifying climate and geomorphic conditions across elevation bands. This study analyzed 350 surface soil samples (0–30 cm) collected from four elevation zones (1600–2000, 2000–2400, 2400–2800, and > 2800

Multiscale Evaluation of Gridded Precipitation Datasets across Varied Elevation Zones in Central Asia’s Hilly Region

Remote Sensing, 2023
The lack of observed data makes research on the cryosphere and ecology extremely difficult, especially in Central Asia’s hilly regions. Before their direct hydroclimatic uses, the performance study of gridded precipitation datasets (GPDS) is of utmost ...

Predicting changes in molluscan spatial distributions in mangrove forests in response to sea level rise

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Mollusks are an important component of the mangrove ecosystem, and the vertical distributions of molluscan species in this ecosystem are primarily dictated by tidal inundation.

Palustrine forested wetland vegetation communities change across an elevation gradient, Washington State, USA [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background Forested wetlands support distinct vegetation and hydrology relative to upland forests and shrub-dominated or open water wetlands. Although forested wetland plant communities comprise unique habitats, these ecosystems’ community structure is ...

Elevated Water Tank Design Comparison in Different Seismic Zones

International Journal of Innovative Research in Computer Science & Technology, 2022
Water is maintained in tall tanks as part of the public water system. Because of a shortage of water or difficulties putting out a fire after an earthquake, the collapse of these water tanks could pose major risks to people. According to draught code Part II of IS 1893:2002, twelve raised circular and H-intake storage tanks with a combined capacity of ...

How Important Are Those Fracture Zones? Scale Dependent Characteristics Revealed Through Field Studies and an Integrated Hydrological Model of a Mountain Headwater Catchment

Frontiers in Water, 2021
Modeling groundwater flow in bedrock can be particularly challenging due to heterogeneities associated with fracture zones. However, fracture zones can be difficult to map, particularly in forested areas where tree cover obscures land surface features ...
