Soil Properties and Plant Community Changes along a Goat Grazing Intensity Gradient in an Open Canopy Oak Forest

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2013
Understanding how the management practices of silvopastoral systems affect the long-term sustainability of oak ecosystems and what their influence is on nutrient cycling and plant community, is of great interest.

Tree size and herbivory determine below-canopy grass quality and species composition in savannahs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Large single-standing trees are rapidly declining in savannahs, ecosystems supporting a high diversity of large herbivorous mammals. Savannah trees are important as they support both a unique flora and fauna.

Distribution and use of grasslands in the Czech Republic and biodiversity of invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In the Czech Republic the major focus of organic farming lies in permanent grasslands management. Animal production is mostly focused on non-milk pasture beef-raising on almost the whole farm area. By contrast conventional farms do not grass sufficiently,

Characterization of Pd/Y multilayers with B4C barrier layers using GIXR and x-ray standing wave enhanced HAXPES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pd/Y multilayers are high reflectance mirrors designed to work in the 7.5-11 nm wavelength range. Samples, prepared by magnetron sputtering, are deposited with or without B4C barrier layers located at the interfaces of Pd and Y layers to reduce ...

Radical increase of the parametric X-ray intensity under condition of extremely asymmetric diffraction

open access: yes, 2017
Parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) from relativistic electrons moving in a crystal along the crystal-vacuum interface is considered. In this geometry the emission of photons is happening in the regime of extremely asymmetric diffraction (EAD).

GRAZING INTENSITY AND SOIL NITROGEN ACCUMULATION

open access: yesProceedings of the New Zealand Grassland Association, 1985
The balance between the litter and animal excreta pathways was varied by imposing a range of sheep grazing intensities on a dryland ryegrass-white clover pasture for 3 years. In contrast to laxly grazed treatments, hard grazed treatments lost soil carbon and nitrogen.

Profitability of Moderate Intensive Grazing of Dairy Cows in the Northeast

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1998
Empirical analysis of the profitability of moderate grazing are presented based on sample dairy farms in Pennsylvania and New York. Net income per cow was higher for dairy farms that employed moderate intensive grazing than for dairy farms that employed extensive grazing. Income appeared to be adequate for family living expenses, but moderate intensive

The Doppler Spectra of Medium Grazing Angle Sea Clutter; Part 1: Characterisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper is concerned with the characterisation of Doppler spectra from high range resolution X-band radar sea clutter observed from an airborne platform over the range of grazing angles, 15° to 45°.

Adoption of soil organic carbon-enhancing practices: A case of two watershed sites in Ethiopia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This study aimed at identifying the factors that determine the decision to adopt and the intensity of adoption of soil organic carbon (SOC)-enhancing practices using two watershed sites in Ethiopia: Yiser (Amhara region) and Azugashube (Southern ...

MICROBIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SOILS UNDER AN INTEGRATED CROP-LIVESTOCK SYSTEM

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2015
Integrated crop-livestock systems (ICLs) are a viable strategy for the recovery and maintenance of soil characteristics. In the present study, an ICL experiment was conducted by the Instituto Agronômico do Paraná in the municipality of Xambre, Parana (PR)
