Estimation Accuracy Obviously Increased of Soil Organic Carbon Content Based on Habitat Patches Scale Using Interpretable Machine Learning in Southwest China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although machine learning models have been successfully applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC), the lack of interpretability research has resulted in the absence of mechanistic explanations for these models. Therefore, in this study, we adopted the following workflow: first, we divided the whole study area into several subregions using ...

Limitations Posed by Free DEMs in Watershed Studies: The Case of River Tanaro in Italy

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019
Topography is a critical element in the hydrological response of a drainage basin and its availability in the form of digital elevation models (DEMs) has advanced the modeling of hydrological and hydraulic processes.

Carbon–Phosphorus Limitation Is Associated With Shifts in Microbial Life‐History Strategies Across Vegetation Restoration Modes in Alpine Sandy Land on the Tibetan Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alpine sandy land on the Tibetan Plateau is fragile, with poorly developed soils, low nutrient availability, and weak biological resilience. Vegetation restoration is widely used to improve soil functioning, yet how microbial nutrient limitation and life‐history strategies vary among restoration modes remains unclear.

Evolution of high-Arctic glacial landforms during deglaciation [PDF]

, 2018
Glacial landsystems in the high-Arctic have been reported to undergo geomorphological transformation during deglaciation. This research evaluates moraine evolution over a decadal timescale at Midtre Lovénbreen, Svalbard.

Treasures of the Serra da Jiboia (Bahia, Brazil): a new species of Racinaea and an overview of the local Bromeliaceae flora

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Serra da Jiboia, located in the south‐central region of Bahia, represents an important ecotone between the Atlantic Forest and the Caatinga and harbors high floristic diversity and numerous endemic species. The Bromeliaceae family, well represented in the region, stands out for its ecological importance and adaptability to various microenvironments ...

Investigation of Water Loss from Pipes Located in Various Relief Features of Iaşi County

Present Environment and Sustainable Development, 2019
Water losses are present in all water supply system pipes. Their parameters and value vary depending on the constructional and functional features of the pipes (diameter, material, pressure, embedding environment, location, position etc.). The phenomenon

Mesoclimatic origin affects alpine plant germination but not its plasticity

Oikos, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are disproportionately exposed to global warming, which may put alpine plant species in particular at risk. Plant species' migration and persistence depend on successful seed regeneration, with demographic traits such as germination being strongly sensitive to both present and ancestral climate.
