ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The energy level mismatch of the perovskite/carbon back interface is decreased remarkably by using B, N co‐doped carbon sphere electrode in C‐PSCs, leading to effective charge carrier separation, extraction, and transport at the back interface. Combined with further buried modification using AMPA, the power conversion efficiency of the C‐PSCs is up to ...

Precision Restoration to Minimize Soil Loss in a Watershed in the Atlantic Forest Domain
ABSTRACT The Turvo River Watershed, located in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais and part of the Doce River Basin, faces serious problems of erosion and soil degradation, which compromise and reduce the quality of local water resources. Given this scenario, it is essential to implement environmental recovery strategies that prioritize the ...

ABSTRACT Sediment connectivity between source areas and the main streams or local sinks is a complex and dynamic process, especially in large basins due to multiple heterogeneities and interactions between connectivity components. Sediment connectivity indices are promising tools to investigate sediment transport, especially in data‐scarce or large ...

ABSTRACT Forest ecosystem services (ESs) are garnering increasing public attention as awareness grows regarding society's fundamental dependence on them for well‐being. Forest fires, one of the major disturbances of ESs, are becoming more frequent and destructive, exacerbated in part by climate change.
