Forest Landscape Changes and Ecological Restoration for Sustainable Land Systems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates forest landscape changes and ecological restoration in Sichuan Province, China, to assess their contribution to sustainable land systems under climate stress. A theory‐guided multistage framework was applied to link Landsat‐based change detection, landscape metrics, habitat quality assessment, soil‐retention analysis ...

Corrosion‐Protection of T122 Steel Using g‐C3N5‐Embedded Epoxy Coatings

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Study evaluates g‐C3N5 (CN) reinforced epoxy coatings on T122 steel in NaCl and H2SO4. Electrochemical tests revealed that 2% loading maximizes corrosion resistance by blocking pores and limiting ion diffusion, increasing Rp and Rn. Optimized CN content enhances epoxy coating performance overall system durability material. ABSTRACT Corrosion‐protection

Corrosion Performance of Steel and Zinc‐Based Materials in Diverse Unsaturated Soils: Insights From a 2‐Year Field Exposure

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The present study generated the corrosion performance of C‐steel, zinc, and galvanized steel in different global unsaturated soil environments for 2 years. Acceptable matching was observed between corrosion rates and identified corrosion products. To properly predict soil corrosion, the results showed that DIN 50929 should include a drainage‐capability

Improved Corrosion Resistance of a Micro‐Alloyed Carbon Steel Assessed by Multi‐Element Electrical Resistance Probes and Coupons in Natural Seawater and Soil

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Multi‐element electrical resistance probes fabricated from industrial carbon steels enable real‐time corrosion monitoring in natural seawater and soil. A micro‐alloyed grade (AMLoCor) demonstrates up to 2.4 times improved uniform corrosion resistance over conventional S355 GP steel.
