On the trails of Josias Braun-Blanquet : changes in the grasslands of the inneralpine dry valleys during the last 70 years. First results from the 11th EDGG Field Workshop in Austria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The 11th EDGG Field Workshop was held from 6 to 13 July 2018 in Austria. Its aim was to revisit dry grasslands in the inneralpine dry valleys of Austria that were investigated in the late 1950s by Braun-Blanquet and to collect high-quality biodiversity ...

Coupled Above‐ and Belowground Ecosystem Stability Worldwide

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Are the worlds above and below our feet in sync? This global exploration reveals an entangled fate between above‐ and belowground ecosystem stability. It identifies arid regions as hotspots for this coupling and highlights temperature stability as a vital safeguard for maintaining ecosystem balance across our warming planet.

Integrated Remote Sensing Evaluation of Grassland Degradation Using Multi-Criteria GDCI in Ili Prefecture, Xinjiang, China

open access: yesLand
As an important ecological barrier and animal husbandry resource base in arid and semi-arid areas, grassland degradation directly affects regional ecological security and sustainable development. Ili Prefecture is located in the western part of Xinjiang,

Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlases of Camels and Cattle Unravel Molecular Evolution of Digestive and Metabolic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We generated multi‐tissue single‐cell transcriptomic atlases of camels and cattle, uncovering conserved and lineage‐specific cellular features across digestive and metabolic systems. Cross‐species comparisons revealed the evolutionary origin of the camel glandular sac and identified novel cell populations linked to physiological specialization ...

Machine learning-based assessment of grassland degradation levels on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 2000 to 2020

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Remote sensing (RS) technology is an indispensable tool for grassland degradation monitoring and assessment at the regional scale. However, most of these remote sensing-based grassland degradation applications rely on a limited set of common indicators ...

Stepwise De‐solvation and Diffusion Kinetics of Hydrated Zn‐ion in Hierarchical Porous Carbon Anode for Improved EDLC Behavior

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The size mismatch between the micropore channel and [Zn(H2O)6]2+ in porous carbon anode during the discharge process was addressed by regulating the hierarchical channel. The inducted stepwise de‐solvation of [Zn(H2O)6]2+ significantly reduced its de‐solvation energy, promoted the EDLC behavior, and strengthened the diffusion kinetic.

Mercury speciation in soils of the industrialised Thur River catchment (Alsace, France) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Methylmercury (MeHg) and total Hg (THg) concentrations in soil profiles were monitored in the Thur River basin (Alsace, France), where a chlor-alkali plant has been located in the city of Vieux-Thann since the 1930s.

Optimal Grazing Exclusion Duration to Enhance Soil Carbon Sequestration in Degraded Grasslands

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Across China, grazing exclusion reaches the national mean soil organic carbon recovery benchmark sooner in high‐MAP regions (> 500 mm), but recovery is much slower where MAP < 300 mm. Scaling this strategy to 70% of China's degraded grasslands would sequester about 1.52 Pg of soil carbon over 10 years—roughly 17% of annual global fossil‐fuel emissions.

Tropical forest degradation in the context of climate change: increasing role and research challenges. [K-2215-01] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
While developed countries in temperate regions faced their forest transition about 100 years ago or more, “tropical forest rich” nations still largely depend on forest resources or land clearing for their development.

Explore the soil factors driving soil microbial community and structure in Songnen alkaline salt degraded grassland

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionSaline-alkali degradation in grassland significantly affects plant community composition and soil physical and chemical properties. However, it remains unclear whether different degradation gradients affect soil microbial community and the ...
