Plant characteristics determination in sand pits near Moscow [PDF]
Sand pits are man-made landforms, where vegetation selfrestoration becomes very difficult. An in-depth study of sand pits’ flora and vegetation must be done in order to restore the complete canopy on sand substrate, which prevents the movement of slopes.

Carbon and nutrient losses during manure storage under traditional and improved practices in smallholder crop-livestock systems - evidence from Kenya [PDF]
In the absence of mineral fertiliser, animal manure may be the only nutrient resource available to smallholder farmers in Africa, and manure is often the main input of C to the soil when crop residues are removed from the fields.

Cavitation Resistance in Seedless Vascular Plants: The Structure and Function of Interconduit Pit Membranes [PDF]
Abstract Plant water transport occurs through interconnected xylem conduits that are separated by partially digested regions in the cell wall known as pit membranes. These structures have a dual function. Their porous construction facilitates water movement between conduits while limiting the spread of air that may enter the conduits and
