Discovery of ancient Roman "highway" reveals geomorphic changes in karst environments during historic times.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Sinkholes are a well-known geologic hazard but their past occurrence, useful for subsidence risk prediction, is difficult to define, especially for ancient historic times.

Characterizing vineyard‐specific differences in Pinot Noir grape composition in relation to soil properties and rhizosphere microbial communities

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Grape berry chemical composition is closely linked to wine quality and provides important information for vineyard management. However, the relationships between berry composition, vineyard soil conditions and rhizosphere microbial communities remain insufficiently understood.

Simulated Trampling Disturbance Alters Biocrust Microbial Communities and Soil Functions: A Container‐Based Mesocosm Experiment

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are crucial components of dryland ecosystems; however, they are highly vulnerable to anthropogenic disturbances, particularly trampling caused by grazing. To evaluate the impacts of trampling on biocrust structure, microbial communities, and soil functions, we conducted a mesocosm‐based simulated disturbance ...

Mass Spectrometry in Authentication and Forensic Approaches for Determining the Origin of Hazardous Chemicals

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identification of a chemical agent yields insights into its physicochemical properties. By examining the intrinsic characteristics and environment of a compound, information about its history can be gathered. The main objective of authentication/forensic approaches to chemicals is to trace the history of the compound's origin, regardless of ...

A reconstructed Pangea would result in lower biodiversity

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Driven by globalization and climatic change, rates of biological invasion are on the increase. Although these increasing rates are widely expected to lead to increased rates of extinction, it has been argued that these ‘newly arrived' species might increase biodiversity.

Theories of care help explain a peri‐urban tree diversity paradox

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Since diversity is often a management objective for peri‐urban tree communities on public land, one might expect to find greater diversity there than on private land, where such objectives are less common. However, this expectation rests on an assumption that people control diversity towards objectives, overlooking the role of relationships ...
