Linking forest management and biodiversity indicators to strengthen sustainable forest management in Europe

Ecological Indicators, 2021
The accelerating global rate of species extinctions and the inevitable human impacts on biodiversity have increased the need to conserve, restore and use ecosystems sustainably. Indicators for biodiversity are the most frequently used tool to monitor the

Snow avalanche friction relation based on extended kinetic theory [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Rheological models for granular materials play an important role in the numerical simulation of dry dense snow avalanches. This article describes the application of a physically based model from the field of kinetic theory to snow avalanche ...

Forage growth, yield and quality responses of Napier hybrid grass cultivars to three cutting intervals in the Himalayan foothills

Tropical Grasslands-Forrajes Tropicales, 2015
A 3 x 3 factorial study was conducted in the southern foothills of Bhutan to compare 3 cultivars of Napier hybrid grass (Pennisetum purpureum x P. glaucum: Pakchong-1, CO-3 and Giant Napier), at 3 cutting intervals (40, 60 and 80 days), in terms of ...

Machine learning for automated avalanche terrain exposure scale (ATES) classification [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Avalanche risk management is essential for backcountry safety. The Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) classifies mountain terrain based on its potential exposure to avalanche hazards and supports mountain visitors in their terrain assessment ...

Forests and Decarbonization – Roles of Natural and Planted Forests [PDF]

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
The severe consequences of human disruptions to the global carbon cycle have prompted intense interest in strategies to reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Because growing forests capture CO2 in their biomass and soils, large-scale tree planting efforts have been advertised as a viable way to counteract anthropogenic emissions as part of net-zero ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Acceleration of the Gradenbach-Eggerberg rock slope deformation

Geoenvironmental Disasters
Background The slope deformation of the Eggerbach slope above the Gradenbach river in Carinthia, Austria, has been monitored since 1966 following a critical acceleration event that caused damming and erosion of the Gradenbach river, resulting in ...
