Fossil pollen records indicate that Patagonian desertification was not solely a consequence of Andean uplift [PDF]
The Patagonian steppe—a massive rain-shadow on the lee side of the southern Andes—is assumed to have evolved ~15–12 Myr as a consequence of the southern Andean uplift. However, fossil evidence supporting this assumption is limited. Here we quantitatively

This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess vertebrate biodiversity in headwater streams of the Rio Santo Antônio basin, southeastern Brazil, a tributary of the Rio Doce. A total of 119 vertebrate OTUs were identified, with oxidation–reduction potential emerging as the strongest environmental predictor of species richness.

New species of osmundaceous fertile leaves from the upper Triassic of Argentina
A new species of Osmundopsis Harris is described based on several impression-compression fossils from the upper section of the Potrerillos Formation (Uspallata Group) at Cerro Cacheuta Hill, Mendoza Province, Argentina. Osmundopsis zunigai sp. nov.

pdFOAM: A PIC-DSMC code for near-earth plasma-body interactions [PDF]
Understanding the interaction of the near-Earth space environment with orbiting bodies is critical, both from a design and scientific perspective. In Low Earth Orbit (LEO), the interaction between the Ionosphere and orbiting objects is well studied from ...

Variations in Satellite Charge Drag Coefficient With Solar Cycle
Abstract Ionospheric plasma interaction with charged satellite surfaces can lead to a substantial increase in orbital drag. In this context, natural events related to solar activity can have a detrimental effect on a satellite's lifespan and introduce uncertainty in orbital trajectory predictions.

Organic farming enhances soil microbial abundance and activity - A meta-analysis and meta-regression [PDF]
Population growth and climate change challenge our food and farming systems and provide arguments for an increased intensification of agriculture. A promising option is eco functional intensification through organic farming, an approach based on using ...

Forage, carbon accumulation, and soil physical characteristics in a crop–livestock production system
Abstract Crop‐livestock systems may improve land use and food security; however, heavy grazing can impair the soil physical properties and reduce the forage accumulation of subsequent crops. The study was conducted to evaluate the impact of mechanically harvest or low‐intensity grazing on the physical properties of soil and the productivity of an ...

This study combines GPR, 2D ERT and UAV‐derived terrain models to characterize sediment variability in a colluvial‐alluvial plain. GPR identified sandy lenses and clay‐rich layers, while ERT revealed deeper conductive and resistive zones, including a gneissic basement.
