Common‐garden experimental evaluation of phylogenetic and functional diversity as drivers of plant performance

Oikos, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is known to influence the performance of coexisting species and has been proposed as a management tool to enhance the resilience and functioning of plant communities under drought. However, experimental studies to disentangle the roles of phylogenetic and functional diversity as drivers of plant performance remain extremely scarce.

Reducing Ammonia Emission during Food Waste Composting and Enhancing Compost Quality Using Different Additives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This research successfully reduces the ammonia emission by 45% and achieves good quality compost using additives (lactic acid or acetic acid) and bulking agents (mature compost or sawdust). The study supports Sustainable Development Goals 12 and 13 by promoting waste‐to‐resource option.

Cryogenic gypsum collected during PS106-1/2 in 2017

, 2020
To date observations on a single location indicate that cryogenic gypsum (Ca[SO4]·2H2O) may constitute an efficient but hitherto overlooked ballasting mineral enhancing the efficiency of the biological carbon pump in the Arctic Ocean.

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Quantification of flash flood peaks using computer simulation for potential hill torrents of Pakistan: A modeling study

River, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates rainfall runoff behavior of five major torrential Nullahs' of Dera Ghazi Khan (D. G. Khan) for flash flood events. The integration, and fusion of satellite‐based meteorological, topographical, and pedo‐transferred function's (PTF) derived soil hydraulic datasets at 250 m grid size substantially proves a viable approach ...
