PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.With global weather patterns becoming more extreme and unpredictable, sourcing reliable irrigation water is vital for improving food security and conserving drinking water in drought‐prone areas. Emerging desalination technologies, which are still in the development phase, could potentially provide large quantities of slightly saline water for ...

Behaviour of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities from a disturbed raised peat bog [PDF]
, 2002 Measurements of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities were carried out for a disturbed raised peat bog in the north of the Netherlands during an 18 month continuous experiment. Tussock grass (sp. Molinea caerulae) mainly dominated the vegetation

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Solar parks enable renewable energy production at a large scale, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, the effects of this change in land use on vegetation and soil health are still largely unknown. In this study, we determined the impacts of solar parks on vegetation, soil biota and soil carbon between and below solar panels.

A Predictive Algorithm For Wetlands In Deep Time Paleoclimate Models [PDF]
, 2019 Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas produced in wetland environments via microbial action in anaerobic conditions. If the location and extent of wetlands are unknown, such as for the Earth many millions of years in the past, a model of wetland fraction ...

Could large‐scale silicon supplementation of crop‐lands mitigate the impacts of climate change?
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Intervention strategies that involve supplementing crop‐lands with silicon have significant scope for carbon capture and drought mitigation, offering wide‐ranging societal impacts. These include contributing to decarbonisation goals, enhancing food security, providing economic benefits and reducing environmental damage associated with intensive ...

Modeling reference evapotranspiration with calculated targets. Assessment and implications
Agricultural Water Management, 2015 [EN] Due to the absence of experimental reference evapotranspiration (ETo) records, data-driven models con-sider in most cases calculated ETotargets to train and test the models, usually according to the standardFAO56 Penman Monteith equation (FAO56-PM).

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Biodiversity loss threatens ecosystem services and human well‐being. Understanding the extent and causes of changes in biodiversity over time can help protect species and their habitats. Herbaria house carefully documented and curated specimens collected by generations of botanists.
