Stability and instability on Maya Lowlands tropical hillslope soils

Geomorphology, 2018
Substantial lake core and other evidence shows accelerated soil erosion occurred in the Maya Lowlands of Central America over ancient Maya history from 3000 to 1000 years ago. But we have little evidence of the wider network of the sources and sinks of that eroded sediment cascade.

Soil Characteristics in Oak Lowland Stand – A Case Study of a 6-Wheeled Forwarder's Impact on Forest Soil

Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering : Journal for Theory and Application of Forestry Engineering, 2023
The behavior of the vehicle-soil interaction and reduction of the possible soil damage to an acceptable level is one of the goals of forest engineering. This study aimed to analyze the impact of a 6-wheeled forwarder on water-physical soil characteristics on lowland soil – pseudogley. The research was conducted using a 17-ton Timberjack 1710B forwarder,

The Ability of Contrasting Ericaceous Ecosystems to Buffer Nitrogen Leaching [PDF]

Mires and Peat, 2013
Much attention has been given to the carbon balance of peatland and heathland ecosystems and their role as global carbon stores. They are also important as buffers for atmospheric nitrogen (N) pollution, locking N into the soil and vegetation through ...

Soil environment of Pulsatilla vernalis (L.) Mill. at selected sites in the Polish lowland

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2013
The paper presents soil conditions of Pulsatilla vernalis in the Polish lowland. There were determined species preferences in relation to physical and chemical properties, grain size composition and the type of soil. It has been found that P.

The survey of salt domes impacts on the soil quality of lowlands using multivariate statistical methods (case study; salty dome of Korsia- Darab plain) [PDF]

مدیریت بیابان, 2017
Salt domes have high impact on the ground waters, mineral matters and their soil quality of lowland regions due to penetrating of them in to the saline mass and going up to surface of earth. In this process, remarkable rate of salt going up to surface of

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.
