Forest Conversion Reduces Soil Water Retention in Tropical Rainforest

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extensive primary forests are being converted to secondary forests and plantations owing to human activities in recent decades, which have substantial effects on soil hydrological processes. However, the potential impact of forest conversion on soil water retention remains poorly understood.

Eroding Confidence in Gully Location Risk Prediction in Mine Pit Rehabilitation

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how rehabilitation measures, such as landform shaping, and surface finishes impact gully erosion risk could assist in designing less erosive rehabilitation. In this study we use high resolution digital elevation models of rehabilitated mine pits to explore risk factors for gully formation.

Trade‐Offs Between Maize Productivity Improvement and Topsoil Salinization Risk Under Shallow Burial Drip Irrigation in Semi‐Arid Regions

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drip irrigation is widely used to conserve water and maintain crop production in water‐limited regions. However, how contrasting drip irrigation systems shape soil water‐salt movement, water and nitrogen (N) use, and maize productivity in semi‐arid environments remains poorly understood.

Long‐Term Legacy of Exotic Pioneers: Over Two Decades of Biodiversity Monitoring Reveals Constrained Succession in a Restored Sanitary Landfill

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term ecological studies are critical for evaluating restoration strategies on challenging sites, such as closed landfills. This study presents a 23‐year biodiversity monitoring program (2000–2023) at the restored Southeast New Territories sanitary landfill in Hong Kong.

Post‐Mining Conservation Measures for Erosion Control: A Global Assessment of Their Effectiveness on Runoff and Soil Erosion Reduction

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining activities severely disturb land surfaces and hydrological processes, intensifying hillslope erosion and soil loss. To evaluate the effectiveness of post‐mining restoration measures and identify the factors regulating their performance, we compiled a global dataset of runoff and soil erosion yield from 58 studies spanning multiple mine ...

Applications of nanocarrier‐delivered RNA interference in agricultural biological control (2009–2025)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Despite 17 years of development, the effectiveness of nanocarrier‐delivered RNAi pesticide (NDRP) for agricultural biological control remains limited. The successful development of effective NDRP development requires the coordinated optimization of target gene selection and nanocarrier properties, including RNA dosage, multi‐gene targeting, protection ...
