Soil methane (CH4) fluxes in cropland with permanent pasture and riparian buffer strips with different vegetation [PDF]

, 2021
Background Methane (CH4) has a global warming potential (GWP) 28 times that of carbon dioxide (CO2) over a 100-year horizon. Riparian buffers strips are widely implemented for their water quality protection functions along agricultural land, but ...

Soil CO2 emissions in cropland with fodder maize (Zea mays L.) with and without riparian buffer strips of differing vegetation [PDF]

, 2022
Vegetated land areas play a significant role in determining the fate of carbon (C) in the global C cycle. Riparian buffer vegetation is primarily implemented for water quality purposes as they attenuate pollutants from immediately adjacent croplands ...

Situation analysis of socio environmental aspects of non point source water pollution in intensively cultivated areas of Nuwara Eliya

Tropical Agricultural Research, 2017
Nonpoint source water pollution is one of the most critical pollution problems all over the world. This study was conducted to assess the status of water pollution, prevention and management and to investigate the awareness of farmers about water quality,

Nitrate removal in a restored riparian groundwater system : functioning and importance of individual riparian zones [PDF]

, 2012
For the design and the assessment of river restoration projects, it is important to know to what extent the elimination of reactive nitrogen (N) can be improved in the riparian groundwater.

Nitrogen dynamics in the shallow groundwater of a riparian wetland zone of the Garonne, SW France: nitrate inputs, bacterial densities, organic matter supply and denitrification measurements [PDF]

, 2003
This study highlights the role of interactions between surface and sub-surface water of the riparian zone of a large river (the Garonne, SW France). Information is given about the role of surface water in supplying Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC ) to the

A novel method to determine buffer strip effectiveness on deep soils [PDF]

, 2012
Unfertilized buffer strips (BS) generally improve surface water quality. High buffer strip effectiveness (BSE) has been reported for sloping shallow aquifers, but experimental data for plain landscapes with deeply permeable soils is lacking.

Ecosystem services of a functionally diverse riparian zone in the Amazon–Cerrado agricultural frontier

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
The ecological services provided by protected riparian zones in human-altered landscapes are widely acknowledged, yet little is known about them. In this study, we assess ecosystem properties that a protected riparian zone maintains in contrast to ...
