Pasture Degradation Estimates Through Field Data in the State of Goiás, Brazil
ABSTRACT Grasslands and pastures play a critical role in global food security, biodiversity, and ecosystem services, particularly in tropical regions where they serve as the primary base for livestock production. However, these areas are increasingly vulnerable to degradation due to poor management practices, as observed in the Cerrado biome.

Sedimentation record in the Konkan-Kerala Basin: implications for the evolution of the Western Ghats and the Western Indian passive margin [PDF]
The Konkan and Kerala Basins constitute a major depocentre for sediment from the onshore hinterland of Western India and as such provide a valuable record of the timing and magnitude of Cenozoic denudation along the continental margin.

ABSTRACT Urban planning can show deficiencies in implementing infrastructure, especially green infrastructure, resulting in disparities between urban development, environmental quality, and quality of life. However, effective management of green infrastructure and consequently urban forests is crucial for enhancing essential ecosystem services.

ABSTRACT Soil degradation threatens agricultural productivity across Africa, necessitating effective conservation strategies. However, gaps remain in understanding the mechanisms that drive agricultural technology adoption and dissemination. This study applies the theories of innovation diffusion, social networks, and risk aversion to examine the ...

Geomorphology under ice streams: Moving from form to process
Ice streams are integral components of an ice sheet's mass balance and directly impact on sea level. Their flow is governed by processes at the ice‐bed interface which create landforms that, in turn, modulate ice stream dynamics through their influence ...
