The Impact of Democratization and Globalization on Environmental Sustainability in Brazil
Geological Journal, EarlyView.Fossil fuel, economic globalisation, and economic growth drive environmental degradation while democratisation positively influences environmental quality. ABSTRACT Although Brazil still possesses significant ecological reserves, the surplus in its biocapacity has been rapidly declining in recent years.

Geological Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change represents the biggest current challenge for us and for future generations. Its impact on agriculture is undeniable, considering the food security goal. Thus, the cropland footprint has been distinguished as a comprehensive index for assessing the impact of environmental changes in agricultural areas determined by the increased ...

Borax Promotes Fertility of Brassica napus Better Than Other Boron Species at Suboptimal Supply
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Continuous and sufficient boron (B) supply is essential for achieving maximum yield in Brassica napus. Increasing incidences of environmental water limitation are linked to reduced plant B availability and increased B deficiencies.

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Increases in soil organic carbon (SOC) through agricultural management can alter soil water retention. This is determined via changes in pore size distribution, namely, air capacity (AC), plant‐available water capacity (PAWC), and hygroscopic water capacity (HWC). However, it is uncertain how much soil water retention in topsoil and

Acidification of Biogas Residues Stimulates Manganese Uptake in Wheat
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Efficient application of organic fertilizers contributes to resource‐efficient agriculture. Acidification of liquid manure effectively reduces ammonia (NH3) emissions. However, the effect of acidification on other plant nutrients, such as Mn, often a yield‐limiting nutrient in cereal production, is not well understood.

The geology of the Strumble Head - Fishguard region, Dyfed, Wales [PDF]
, 1979 An investigation was undertaken on the volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks forming the Fishguard Volcanic Group of Lower Ordovician age, which crop out in the Strumble Head - Fishguard area of Southwest Dyfed (North Pembrokeshire).\ud The nature of the lavas and volcaniclastic rocks suggests that this episode of vulcanicity was entirely subaqueous in ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding postglacial ontogeny in Arctic lakes helps contextualize modern‐day climatic change. We used sediment cores to characterize ecological succession in three south‐central Baffin Island lakes from deglaciation (c. 7–8k cal a BP) to present.

Pyroclastic density currents are a life-threatening volcanic hazard. Our understanding and hazard assessments of these flows primarily rely on interpretations of their deposits. The occurrence of stratified layers, cross-stratification, and dune bedforms in these deposits has been assumed as indicative of dilute, turbulent, flows causing traction ...
