The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Sustainability Assessment of Circular Strategies in the Agri‐Food Industry: The Case of Olive Mills' By‐Product Valorization

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study integrates multidimensional sustainability indicators into a unified assessment approach to evaluate circular strategies in agri‐food industry businesses. This methodological approach is applied to empirically examine the case of the olive oil industry's by‐product valorization.

A New Deep Vision-Based Identifier As An Intelligent Herbicide Spraying Agent For Potato Farm Application [PDF]

مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی
Weeding in potato fields with the least consumption of inputs (herbicide or mechanical operations) is one of the main goals of sustainable agriculture. In precision agriculture, machine vision-based systems are used as on-the-go sensing units to detect ...

Weeds: Against the Rules?

Trends in Plant Science, 2020
Establishing laws of plant and ecosystems functioning has been an overarching objective of functional and evolutionary ecology. However, most theories neglect the role of human activities in creating novel ecosystems characterized by species assemblages ...

Comprehensive Characterization of Spelt Wheat and Common Wheat Protein and Viscosity Traits Under Different Field Management Systems

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is an increasing interest in healthier, nutrient‐rich foods so alternative grains produced in smaller quantities—including spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.)—have once again become the focus of consumers. At the same time, the scientific proof of these claims is incomplete.

Weed Vegetation Analysis and Response to Sunflower Extracts in the Uplands

JERAMI
Weeds are plants whose presence is unwanted by humans because of competition with cultivated plants for nutrients, sunlight, and growing space, producing allelochemicals that interfere with plant growth, reduce production and product quality, and ...

Successful Implementation of Environmental Policy and Governance: Understanding and Modeling Micro Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Successful implementation of environmental policy and governance highly depends on the capacity to know about, build new and utilize existing governance structures. However, the theoretical tools and available methods to assess the complexity of emerging or existing structures are rather limited.
