In Situ Impact of Waste Polyethylene (PE) Films on Soil Quality and Plant Growth in Agricultural Soil

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plastic films have accumulated in soil ecosystems over decades of agricultural activities. These films potentially disrupt the soil structure, hinder nutrient cycling, and deteriorate soil quality. However, there is still a substantial knowledge gap in understanding how real‐world waste polyethylene films (WPEFs), with varied shapes and sizes,

Geology and geomorphology of alluvial and fluvial fans: current progress and research perspectives

open access: yesSpecial Publications, 2018
Alluvial and fluvial fans are the most widespread depositional landforms bordering the margins of long-lived highland regions and actively subsiding continental basins, across a broad spectrum of tectonic and climatic settings.

Wheat Straw Returning Mitigates the Impact of Crop Rotational History on Soil Respiration Response to Drought–Rewetting Cycle

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop rotation and wheat straw return have significant potential to regulate soil respiration (Rs) and enhance soil health by increasing carbon pools, which is crucial in mitigating drought effects. This study aimed to examine the influence of organic agro‐waste addition on Rs under rotation and monoculture through a 70‐day incubation ...

Runoff and Sediment Response to Different Fire Intensities in a Hyrcanian Mixed Broadleaved Forest Ecosystem

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfires are increasingly recognized as a critical driver of ecosystem degradation, with post‐fire hydrological and soil impacts posing significant threats to biodiversity, water quality, and long‐term land productivity. In fire‐prone regions, understanding how varying fire intensities exacerbate runoff and erosion is essential for guiding ...

Quantifying the Role of Vegetation in Reducing Erosion on Post‐Mining Landforms: An Experimental Approach

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For post‐mining landscapes, erosion rates need to be demonstrably similar to that of the surrounding areas. Post‐mining landscapes are assessed (usually with a numerical model) to determine their erosion potential both in the pre‐ and post‐construction phases. Field plots, which rely on natural rainfall, provide the most reliable data; however,
