Wetland occupancy by duck broods in cropland‐dominated landscapes of the United States Prairie Pothole Region

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 87, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
We evaluated how wetland occupancy by duck broods varied across crop‐dominated landscapes of the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) in the United States to inform conservation strategies in the face of widespread land use alterations and climate change. We found about 4 in 10 small wetlands in crop‐dominated landscapes within the PPR were used by duck broods

Tropical surface gold mining: A review of ecological impacts and restoration strategies

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 33, Issue 18, Page 3661-3674, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Surface gold mining severely degrades landscapes, causing deforestation, soil erosion and displacement, and toxic contamination. The prevalence of both large‐scale and artisanal, small‐scale surface gold mining in the tropics has risen over recent decades.

Hydrological Factors for Phosphorus Transfer from Agricultural Soils

open access: yes, 1999
Understanding and managing against phosphorus (P) transfer from agricultural soils to receiving waters is a multidisciplinary task in which the role of hydrology is particularly difficult to simplify. We review current knowledge to define the spatial and temporal controls on P transfer from agricultural soils via the various hydrological pathways ...
