Post‐Fire Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics: Decline and Recovery Over Two Decades
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wildfire can significantly alter soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in forest ecosystems, with complex temporal patterns following fire events. However, research on post‐fire SOC recovery remains limited, particularly in dry‐warm valley regions that are prone to frequent forest fires.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Saline–sodic soils threaten global agriculture, and flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum is a widely adopted reclamation practice. However, the associated long‐term (> 10 years) legacy effects and temporal dynamics remain poorly understood. We quantified the decadal dynamics of soil quality following a one‐time application of FGD gypsum (40 t

Energy Options to Reduce Deforestation Using EKC Model: A Region‐Based Longitudinal Approach
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Forests are carbon storage that can reduce carbon emissions, so deforestation (decrease in forest area) is a serious threat to environmental sustainability. Indonesia is a large carbon sink due to its large forests. However, deforestation is quite high due to economic activities that use fossil energy.

A Land Potential‐Based Framework for Wind Erosion and Sand and Dust Storm Source Mitigation
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wind erosion and sand and dust storms are a global challenge. While many management practices to mitigate sources of wind erosion and sand and dust storms have been documented, existing guidance largely emphasizes what practices are available, with limited information on where and under what ecological conditions they should be applied.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Land degradation is a critical global challenge, threatening biodiversity, food security, and livelihoods. Ecological restoration has therefore become a priority, with aerial seeding emerging as a key method to address issues of scale, accessibility, and efficiency. By dispersing seeds from aircraft or drones, aerial seeding complements ground‐

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are crucial components of dryland ecosystems; however, they are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, particularly trampling caused by grazing. To evaluate the impacts of trampling on biocrust structure, microbial communities, and soil functions, we conducted a mesocosm‐based simulated disturbance ...

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Identification of a chemical agent yields insights into its physicochemical properties. By examining the intrinsic characteristics and environment of a compound, information about its history can be gathered. The main objective of authentication/forensic approaches to chemicals is to trace the history of the compound's origin, regardless of ...

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the ventral intermediate nucleus and posterior subthalamic area (VIM/PSA) in Essential Tremor (ET) and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in Parkinson's disease (PD) are established treatments for tremor. To achieve maximum tremor control, increasing stimulation frequency beyond 130 Hz is part of clinical ...

Interdiction Models and Heuristics for Graph Propagation
Networks, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Given a graph G=(V,E)$$ G=\left(V,E\right) $$ and a set S⊂V$$ S\subset V $$ of activated/infected nodes, we consider the problem of determining the set of c$$ c $$ nodes that minimizes the network propagation on the subgraph that results from the removal of those c$$ c $$ nodes. To measure network propagation, we assume that a node i$$ i $$ is

Mobilizing Presence across Borders: Devotion to Papua New Guinea's Blessed Peter To Rot in Australia
Oceania, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article engages with the conjunctures between migration and religion by focusing on the celebration of Papua New Guinea's ‘National Patron Saint’, the Blessed Peter To Rot, in the Australian diaspora. Both in Sydney and Brisbane, Catholic Papua New Guinea (PNG) migrants have been ‘relocating’ PNG shrines, regalia, relics and ritual ...
