Effects of (Assisted) Natural Regeneration on Infiltrability and Preferential Flow Pathways in the Khasi Hills (Meghalaya, NE India)

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 1564-1578, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Intensified slash‐and‐burn cultivation and forest clearing have caused severe land degradation in the Khasi Hills (Meghalaya plateau, NE India). Despite very high annual rainfall, the region faces severe water scarcity during the dry season.

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,

Nutrient enrichment—but not warming—increases nitrous oxide emissions from shallow lake mesocosms

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Shallow lakes and ponds play a crucial role in the processing of carbon and other nutrients. However, many lakes and ponds worldwide are affected by climate change and nutrient pollution. How these pressures affect the emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) is unclear.

Nutrient inversion but not warming drive changes in periphyton biomass and composition in shallow lake mesocosms

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Periphyton plays an important functional role in shallow lakes and is sensitive to variation in nutrient availability and global warming. Understanding the responses of periphyton to changes in nutrient availability in contrasting warming scenarios can contribute to the development of more efficient techniques for the restoration of lakes in a

Summer temperatures, autumn winds, and thermal structure under the ice in arctic lakes of varying morphometry

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Ice‐covered lakes differ strongly from their ice‐free counterparts in their temperatures, heat budgets, and hydrodynamics. Nevertheless, due to a lack of detailed measurements, processes under the ice and their drivers are still understudied.
