Assessment of Soil Erosion Over Six Decades in a Long‐Term Experiment Using Fallout 137Cs and RUSLE: A South American Case Study

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major global concern affecting agricultural productivity and land sustainability. This study investigates the magnitude and variability of soil erosion in a long‐term experiment (LTE) established in 1963 in Colonia, Uruguay, aiming to compare the performance of the 137Cs tracer technique and the RUSLE model across ...

Anisotropic Initial Damage and Its Effect on Tensile Response of Plain Concrete

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Damage is often described as isotropic, implying that a scalar value describes its initial state. However, the prior micro‐cracking pattern at points of an existing building, that is, the initial damage, may be oriented by a preload. The degradation of the Volume Element due to oriented preloads shall be described as anisotropic and ...

Modeling Biocemented Sands: Hypoplastic Model for MICP‐Based Ground Improvement

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bio‐cementation offers a sustainable and low‐carbon alternative to conventional ground improvement methods, aligning with the growing demand for green geotechnical solutions. To enable reliable numerical simulation of bio‐cemented soil behavior in engineering applications, advanced constitutive models are required to account for the effects of

Shaping Manager Well‐Being and Functioning in Declining Nonprofit Organizations: The Critical Role of Strategy Implementation

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under the roof of Christian churches in Central Europe, some nonprofit organizations (NPOs) grow, while others are in marked decline. Our study in this context extends a previous focus on financial indicators to NPO managers' experiences, their role clarity and job satisfaction, during phases of organizational growth and decline. Specifically,

3D effects of seawater on electrical resistivity tomography near shorelines—Challenges and possible solutions inferred from synthetic and field data

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is one of the most widely used geophysical techniques for hydrogeological questions, such as investigating the groundwater transition zone between land and sea. The interpretation of 2D coast‐parallel ERT profiles is challenging because most of the electrical current flows through the highly conductive ...
