Assessing field-scale salt leaching during saline soil remediation with electrical resistivity tomography and electromagnetic induction methods

Frontiers in Environmental Science
During the remediation of saline wasteland, it is crucial to rapidly and accurately characterize the spatial distribution and temporal dynamics of soil salinity for evaluating the efficacy of leaching measures and guiding management strategies.

Ecology of Malaria Mortality: A Spatiotemporal Mapping Approach

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study examines the spatiotemporal ecology of probable malaria mortality in 19th‐century southern Ontario to evaluate how settlement expansion, landscape transformation, and infrastructure development structured transmission risk in a temperate, settler‐colonial context.

New Approach to the Assessment of Insecticide Losses from Paddy Fields Based on Frequent Sampling Post Application

Agronomy, 2020
High concentration of insecticides may appear in waters surrounding paddy fields shortly after application. Capturing the dynamic feature of this insecticide pulse may help control insecticide load to receiving waters.

Building Resilience: Empowering Agro‐Pastoralists Against Climate Variability in Laikipia, Kenya

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses significant challenges for agricultural systems in Africa, particularly affecting agro‐pastoral communities dependent on crops and livestock for their livelihoods. This study investigates the impact of adaptation strategies on climate resilience among agro‐pastoral communities in Laikipia County, Kenya. It applies the Food

Inter‐Annual Variation in Alpha and Beta Diversity of Benthic Macroinvertebrate Communities in Agricultural Ditches

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 997-1010, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Ditches are essential elements of the agricultural landscape because of their role as habitat or refuge for aquatic species, especially in homogenized and intensively cultivated areas. However, data on the biodiversity associated with agricultural ditches, and its variation over time, are underrepresented in ecological research.

The Role of Amplicon Length and Total DNA Length in Synthetic DNA Tracer Degradation and Adsorption During Transport Through Sand

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Synthetic DNA tracers are increasingly used in subsurface hydrological studies because their large sequence diversity enables the design of numerous uniquely identifiable tracers. However, previous studies have not isolated how amplicon length, flanking region length, and total DNA length independently control tracer degradation and adsorption

Analytical solution to problems of hydraulic jump in horizontal triangular channels

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2013
A hydraulic jump is formed in a channel whenever supercritical flow changes to subcritical flow in a short distance. It can be used in triangular ditch irrigation to raise the downstream water surface.

Promoting Methane Reductions Through Behavioural Nudges and Informational Boosts: A Field Choice Experiment in Japanese Rice Farming

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 677-698, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural methane emissions represent a significant contributor to global climate change, with irrigated rice cultivation being one of the primary sources. Despite the availability of effective mitigation technologies, their adoption often remains limited due to behavioural and institutional constraints.
