De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...

First comparative study in oxidative stress between wild bees and managed bees. Bees collected from organic landscapes exhibited the lowest OX levels. Pesticide profiles were different among landscapes. Abstract Oxidative stress (OX) is a state of imbalance between antioxidants and reactive oxygen species, which are the byproducts of oxidative ...

In this study, we identified a rice plasma membrane intrinsic aquaporin (OsPIP2;1) as the candidate gene for a chromosome 7 locus driving drought avoidance, supported by established and novel physiological experiments measuring root hydraulic conductance in near isogenic and RNAi knockdown lines.

Reliability of Soil Water Characteristics Curve under Different Normal Stresses for Unsaturated Sand [PDF]
The soil water characteristics curve (SWCC) demonstrates a link between soil moisture content and suction. The SWCC is almost treated as an index parameter in unsaturated soil. The soil permeability and shear strength can be linked to SWCC.

We present an event‐based FS–probability mapping to link physically based slope stability analysis with statistical probability prediction. Results indicate a mappable relationship between factor of safety and landslide probability, and the hybrid model shows comparable discriminative performance across two extreme‐rainfall events with contrasting ...

Soil trenching is extensively used in geotechnical, mining, tunneling and geo-environmental infrastructures. Safe height and stand-up time are two key factors that are required for the rational design of soil trenches.

Abstract Redox processes in soil governs key biogeochemical cycles and influence carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus dynamics. However, their role in deep vadose zone soils remains poorly understood, particularly in variably saturated environments with heterogeneous hydroclimatic, landscape position, and land use conditions.

Sanitary landfill covers are exposed to varying environmental conditions; hence, the state of the clay layer also changes from saturated to unsaturated. The study aimed to predict the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of the locally available compacted ...

Soil amendment effects on field‐saturated and unsaturated hydraulic properties of sodic soils
Abstract Soil sodicity degrades soil structure and restricts water movement by promoting clay swelling, dispersion, and surface sealing, thereby reducing infiltration and hydraulic conductivity. This study aims to evaluate the effects of four soil amendments (elemental sulfur, gypsum, compost, and humate) on the hydraulic conductivity of sodic soils ...
