Simulated Root Exudation Gradient Reveals Dosage‐Dependent Carbon Sequestration in Desertification Ecosystems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudates serve as a key driver for the restoration of soil organic carbon (SOC), particularly in aeolian desertification ecosystems where aboveground litter retention is limited. While Salix cupularis is widely planted as an effective pioneer shrub for ecological rehabilitation on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, how the quantity of its root ...

Physical and Chemical Characterization of Soil in Urban Solid Waste Disposal Area

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waste generation and subsequent disposal in adequate sites still have limitations in some Brazilian municipalities. Therefore, environmental monitoring of these areas is extremely important, as it helps to preserve the environment. The purpose of this study is to analyze the chemical and physical parameters of soil in a landfill area. For this,

Risk Assessment and Diagnosis Model for Real‐Time Flood Control Operation of a Multi‐Reservoir System

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time flood control operation of multi‐reservoir systems is affected by multiple sources of hydrological and operational uncertainties, which increase the complexity of risk propagation and decision‐making processes. Therefore, effective risk assessment and diagnosis are essential for supporting risk‐informed flood control operation.

Land Use and Land Cover Analysis for Solid Waste Management in NCT Delhi Using Fusion Aware Segformer

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of Land Use Land Cover (LULC) analysis is a fundamental requirement for urban solid waste management (SWM); however, conventional LULC analysis methods are not well suited to the spatio‐temporal variability, multi‐sensor heterogeneity, and seasonal variations of highly dynamic urban environments.
