Assessing the Sustainability of Community‐Managed Irrigation Systems Using Multicriteria Analysis and Sustainability Indicators in Northern Ethiopia: A Holistic Approach

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reservoir‐based irrigation schemes (RBISs) have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of moisture stress and improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in semi‐arid regions. However, many RBISs perform below expectations. A multistage expert elicitation approach and an indicator‐based Sustainability Assessment of Food and ...

A comprehensive review on the sources, environmental behavior, and degradation of alkylphenol ethoxylates and their metabolites in surface water and soils

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs) and their metabolites, widely used in agricultural, industrial, and household products, are known endocrine disruptors. Since the 1980s, many countries have implemented restrictions on their production and use, necessitating an evaluation of these regulations by reviewing their source and environmental behavior ...

Sensitivity of redox conditions to irrigation practice and organic matter decomposition in a rotational flooded rice (Oryza sativa) cropping system

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural practices in the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) of South Florida have focused on managing accelerated organic matter (OM) decomposition in Histosols, which leads to soil subsidence. Rotating flooded rice (Oryza sativa L., variety Diamond) during the summer fallow period of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) has been proposed

A Simple and Scalable Synthesis of N‐Nitroso Salbutamol Impurities A, D, and F

open access: yesJournal of Heterocyclic Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To ensure strict quality control standards, improve yields, and meet regulatory requirements, the synthesis of N‐nitroso impurities of salbutamol is essential. These studies help in understanding, monitoring, and mitigating the risks associated with the presence of potentially harmful nitrosamine impurities in pharmaceuticals.

Evaluating potential altered harvest and predator management strategies to increase white‐tailed deer population growth in the Southeastern United States

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
In some portions of the southeastern United States where white‐tailed deer populations are declining, alteration of adult female harvest levels and the availability of alternative foods for coyotes can help increase population growth. Abstract White‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations in the southeastern United States have declined from ...
