Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

CFD Analysis of Dual‐Layer PCM Roofs for Thermal Mitigation in Residential Buildings

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a computational fluid dynamics analysis of dual‐layer phase change material (PCM) roofs for passive cooling in residential buildings under the hot and humid climate of Bangladesh. A three‐dimensional transient model was developed in ANSYS Fluent using the enthalpy–porosity approach to simulate coupled heat conduction ...

Does the Application Flow Rate of Nutrient Solutions Prepared in Brackish Water Affect Coriander Production?

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow rates for applying nutrient solutions in hydroponic systems are empirically known, yet uncertainties remain regarding whether brackish water affects the optimal flow rate and, consequently, biomass production and allocation. This study evaluated whether variations in application flow rate affect coriander biomass when brackish water is ...

Carbon Stock and Environmental Variations of Typical Plantations in Mufu Mountain in Hubei Province, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest ecosystems play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. As a significant terrestrial carbon sink, plantations exhibit carbon stock patterns that are shaped by tree species composition, stand structure, and environmental conditions. Here, we investigated typical plantation types in the Mufu Mountain, Hubei Province.
