High and dry: the persistence of diverse coastal marsh communities depends on available upland area and connection to surrounding waters

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sea‐level‐rise and alterations to natural hydrology have contributed to coastal land loss. To combat coastal land loss and maintain the ecosystem services provided by marshes, marsh creation has been broadly implemented. Marsh creation projects can be performed in conjunction with the construction of elevated terrestrial ridges that seek to mimic ...

Geotechnical aspects of coal waste embankments

, 1976
The expanding consumption of energy has created new demands for coal and increasing activity in the coal mining industry. However, the mining of coal is accompanied by coal wastes which are dumped in the form of coal waste embankments.

Finite Element Analysis on the Behavior of Solidified Soil Embankments on Piled Foundations under Dynamic Traffic Loads

Applied Sciences
Most research conducted so far has primarily focused on pile-supported gravel embankments. The ability of solidified soil used as an embankment filling material has been verified, and a clear view on the performance of solidified soil embankments on ...

Estimating the greenhouse gas emission abatement potential of tidal introduction in Australia

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands store higher amounts of organic carbon and sequester it at higher rates in soil relative to terrestrial ecosystems. However, they have been extensively drained, excavated, or modified, often to allow agriculture. Restoring degraded coastal wetlands can be an important contribution to climate change mitigation by ...

Deformation, resistance characteristics, and scale effects of rockfall protection soil embankments under static loading

Soils and Foundations
Rockfall protection soil embankments are structures that can effectively reduce rockfall hazards along roads. They are economical and easy to construct and maintain by using locally available soil.

Fire frequency and timing influence bee–flower interactions: a case study from an oak‐pine savanna restoration on the Cumberland Plateau

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Native plant communities have declined in the southeastern United States over the past century because of habitat loss and fire suppression. While restoration of these communities often requires prescribed fire, the effects of fire on endemic insects remain unclear.

Livelihood Heterogeneity and Adoption of Combine Harvesters Under Flood Risk: Evidence From the Wetland Areas of Bangladesh

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Livelihood heterogeneity explains uneven combine harvester adoption in haor wetlands. PCA–cluster analysis identifies four farmer typologies shaping mechanization pathways. Adoption is highest among educated and networked land‐rich farmers, lowest among traditionalists.
