ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

Bisphenol A and Its Analogs: Toxicity Analysis in Mouse and Rat Liver—A Review
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogs are widely recognized for their use in industry and plastic manufacturing. Consequently, humans and animals are continually exposed to various substances in their daily lives. This review evaluates the hepatic toxicity of BPA and its analogs in mice and rats, with particular emphasis on molecular mechanisms ...

Nonlinear analysis of concrete gravity dams under normal fault motion [PDF]
The importance of the seismic behavior of concrete gravity dams in their safety evaluation and stability is inevitable. Many factors affect the prediction of the behavior of concrete dams such as dam-foundation-reservoir interaction, dam and foundation ...

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

ABSTRACT Terraced fields and the Gully Land Reclamation Project (GLRP) are important soil and water conservation measures, widely constructed in China's Loess Plateau and other ecologically fragile areas in the world. However, under large‐scale governance scenarios, the impacts of the “terraced fields‐GLRP” cascade system on water and sediment ...

ABSTRACT Establishing scientifically grounded soil erosion control targets and feasible vegetation restoration strategies is crucial for high quality development of the Chinese Loess Plateau which is severely affected by soil erosion. Currently, the commonly used tolerable soil loss (TSL) is inadequate for addressing the spatial heterogeneity in ...

ABSTRACT Subalpine meadows play important roles in biodiversity conservation and soil carbon sequestration, but gully erosion poses a serious threat to their ecological stability. Soil shear strength (τ) is a key mechanical parameter for evaluating gully stability and soil resistance to failure. However, the spatial variation in soil shear strength and

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
