Geotechnical controls on erodibility in fluvial impact erosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Bedrock incision by rivers is commonly driven by the impacts of moving bedload particles. The speed of incision is modulated by rock properties, which is quantified within a parameter known as erodibility that scales the erosion rate to the erosive ...

Spatial variations in soil erodibility induced by rock outcropping on sloping cropland in the karst region of Southwest China

open access: yesGeoderma, 2023
Sloping croplands in karst areas of Southwest China usually contain a multitude of rock outcrops with diameters larger than 25 cm. Rock outcrops and spatial location have substantial effects on soil properties and thus likely affect soil erodibility ...

Upstream and Downstream Changes in the Channel Width and Sinuosity Due to Dam Construction in Tropical Rivers: The Case of Colombia

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In Colombia, most of the energy is produced by using water resources. However, the morphological impact of damming has not been thoroughly studied yet. Therefore, upstream and downstream changes in the channel width and sinuosity along the river due to ...

Effects of deposit-feeding bivalve (Macomona liliana) density on intertidal sediment stability

open access: yes, 2004
Effects of macrofaunal feeding and bioturbation on intertidal sediment stability (u*crit) were investigated by manipulating density (0-3 x ambient) of the facultative deposit-feeding wedge shell (Macomona liliana) on the Tuapiro sandflat in Tauranga ...

Erodibility of Vertisols in relation to agricultural practices along a toposequence in the Logone floodplain

open access: yesSoil & Environment, 2020
Knowledge of the combining effect of agricultural practices and slope on soil erodibility is important to promote their suitable use and constitutes a key parameter for their sustainable conservation. The aim of this study was to characterize vertisols

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Statistical Analysis and Rapid Prediction Method of Erodibility Parameters of Barrier Dam

open access: yes工程科学与技术, 2020
The erodibility parameters of barrier dam were an important basis for the evaluation of the outburst flood in the emergency treatment of the dammed lake. The erosion rate was typically modeled with excess shear stress model and Wilson model.

Why human connection is the true metric of research success

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...

Soil Properties Governing Erodibility of Cuban Soils: A Univariate Erodibility Equation

open access: yesSoil Systems
Accelerated water erosion is a major soil degradation process that affects soil and water quality. In Cuba, specifically, more than 40% of agricultural lands are affected by severe erosion problems.
