A Research on The Vegetation Structures of The Rangelands of District Tufanbeyli, Adana
, 2018 This research was conducted to determine vegetation structures of the upland rangelands in the five villages of Tufanbeyli district, Adana, in 2010. Vegetations of the rangelands were studied by the loop method. In the study, plant cover percentages, botanical compositions based on the cover percentage in the plant covered area, range quality values ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing
