American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2017 The hydrological performance of individual tree can be estimated by measuring the stem flow, throughfall and rainfall interception. Water distribution through tree canopy is affected by tree architectural model and another tree’s morphology.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The optimal timing of reproduction depends on the relative risk and benefit of continued growth. These risks and benefits depend on the local environment, which varies seasonally. While temperature and water availability are well‐studied selective agents on reproductive timing, less is known about other seasonally variable factors ...

Measuring and Modelling Evaporation Losses from Wet Branches of Lemon Trees
Hydrology, 2022 Evaporation losses of rainfall intercepted by canopies depend on many factors, including the temporal scale of observations. At the event scale, interception is a few millimetres, whereas at a larger temporal scale, the number of times that a canopy is ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) within primate populations can arise due to male mating competition. Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi) populations exhibit both single‐male and multi‐male groups, providing an opportunity to examine the relationship between male competitive ability and social organization.

Effect of rainfall interception and resting period on the soil seed bank
Frontiers in AgronomyThe ecosystems across the world are affected by diverse impacts of climate change. Climate change will also affect soil seed bank as the seed bank is determined by the plants that are above the ground.

The effect of vegetation canopy on canopy storage capacity with different rainfall intensity
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Canopy Interception is one of the vital component in hydrological cycle and underestimating the interception process can significantly affect the water balance.

The Heat Is On: Climate Change–Related Challenges and SMEs' R&D Activities
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Investing in R&D is a key way for small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) to develop capabilities that are required to respond to climate change–related challenges. However, the extent to which such challenges affect SMEs' R&D activities remains a critical gap in the literature.
