Forest Vapor Pressure Deficit Sensitivity: A Potential Indicator of Soil Carbon Stability Under Atmospheric Drying

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This Short Report examines an underexplored link between atmospheric drying and soil organic carbon (SOC) stability. Rising atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is becoming an increasingly important hydroclimatic stressor for terrestrial ecosystems.

Manure Composting as a Strategy to Mitigate Antibiotic Resistance Dissemination in Agricultural Systems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Livestock manure is a valuable agricultural resource but may introduce antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. This review critically evaluates the fate of antibiotics and ARGs during manure composting and identifies the principal factors controlling their attenuation.

Explainable, Uncertainty‐Aware Machine Learning for Maize Land Suitability and Climate Resilience in Lorestan Province, Western Iran

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is strategically important in Iran, yet its cultivation in the semi‐arid Zagros is constrained by limited and variable water, heat stress and heterogeneous soils, while conventional suitability assessments are deterministic, rarely validated spatially and provide no measure of confidence.

Monitoring shallow geothermal aquifers with active‐source distributed acoustic sensing: A prognostic feasibility study on the University of Leeds Geothermal Campus

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom's shallow aquifers offer significant but underdeveloped geothermal energy resource. Seismic methods can help address this by improving the understanding of aquifer heterogeneity and potentially allowing long‐term monitoring of thermal plumes.

Recovery from electrode position uncertainties in geophysical electrical resistance tomography – Application to moisture transport imaging

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract In studies of subsurface hydrology, monitoring and imaging techniques are used to estimate the moisture content, or to track moisture or injected tracer movement. One applied imaging technique is electrical resistance tomography (ERT), in which measurements collected using electrodes placed on the ground surface or in boreholes are used to ...

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.
