Trent Valley 2002: Trent Valley GeoArchaeology bibliographic database

, 2005
The Trent Valley has been subject to considerable archaeological, geomorphological and palaeoenvironmental investigation. The results of most of this work are only accessible through 'grey' literature held in SMR archives in the various Counties and ...

Native Perennial Vegetation Buffer Strips Improve Structural Indicators of Riparian Protection in Mediterranean Agroecosystems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones in Mediterranean agroecosystems are highly vulnerable to degradation because cultivation often reaches stream edges and annual vegetation senesces during the late‐summer dry period, leaving soils exposed when the first erosive autumn rains occur.

Estimation Accuracy Obviously Increased of Soil Organic Carbon Content Based on Habitat Patches Scale Using Interpretable Machine Learning in Southwest China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although machine learning models have been successfully applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC), the lack of interpretability research has resulted in the absence of mechanistic explanations for these models. Therefore, in this study, we adopted the following workflow: first, we divided the whole study area into several subregions using ...

Effects of Fertilization and Wheat Straw Management on Rice Yield and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Paddy Fields

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution caused by excessive nitrogen fertilization has become increasingly serious, making optimized fertilization and straw management critical for improving agricultural sustainability. This study involved a two‐year field trial with three fertilization strategies: conventional fertilization (CF), 23.50% nitrogen reduction ...

Coupling of Physical Protection and Molecular Composition Drives Carbon Sequestration Divergence in Soils Planted With Different Tea Varieties

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tea plantations represent significant carbon (C) sinks in agricultural landscapes, yet how variety‐specific organic inputs are associated with the molecular composition and stability of soil organic carbon (SOC) within aggregate hierarchies remains unclear.

Determining the Optimal Water Storage Depth of Apple Orchards in the Chinese Loess Plateau: Balancing Soil Desiccation Mitigation, Plant Utilization, and Engineering Construction

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep‐rooted plantations are central to dryland ecological restoration, yet their long‐term cultivation drives widespread deep soil desiccation, threatening ecosystem sustainability. While artificial water replenishment is a key deep soil desiccation mitigation strategy, the depth‐dependent positional effect of stored water on eco‐hydrological ...

Ecological Challenges and Strategic Responses to China's Quantitative Rigidity of Cultivated Land Protection

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Balancing food security and ecological sustainability has become a critical challenge for land governance in rapidly urbanizing countries. China has successfully maintained national cultivated land quantity through a comprehensive farmland protection regime.

Moderate Biochar–Compost Mixture Is More Effective in Improving Biomass, Nutrient Fluxes, and Photosynthetic Outputs for Sustainable Land Restoration and Soil Fertility

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion severely constrains crop productivity in degraded and saline environments. Strategies such as biochar–compost integration could be useful for sustainable agriculture and land restoration on a global scale. This study evaluated the effects of biochar (1% Bc), compost (1% Co), and their blends (0.5% Bc + 0.5% Co and 1% Bc
