Glyphosate in waters and soils from genetically modified canola cultivation in Parkes, NSW, Australia [PDF]

, 2013
Investigations were conducted of farmland from the Parkes region of New South Wales, Australia, cultivated with genetically modified canola, involving the determination of glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) concentrations in water and soils, and its

The value of carbon sequestration and storage in coastal habitats [PDF]

, 2014
Coastal margin habitats are globally significant in terms of their capacity to sequester and store carbon, but their continuing decline, due to environmental change and human land use decisions, is reducing their capacity to provide this ecosystem ...

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Automated Feature Extraction and Classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets in the Puck Lagoon via Multisensor Remote Sensing

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a strong framework for the detection and classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets (SCHA) in shallow marine environments using the integration of multibeam echosounder and airborne LiDAR bathymetry with object‐based image analysis and fuzzy logic–based classification.

DYNAMIC TESTS OF FROZEN SAND SOILS

Problems of Strength and Plasticity, 2019
The study of the laws of contact interaction of hard and deformable impactors with frozen soils is of great scientific and applied value. In solving such problems, numerical methods are widely used. For numerically modeling the behavior of frozen soil under dynamic loading, it is necessary to use models of soil media that adequately describe their ...

A new slurry-based method of preparation of specimens of sand containing fines [PDF]

, 2007
A new method of specimen reconstitution is presented that is appropriate for element testing of sands containing either plastic or nonplastic fines. The method allows reconstitution of homogeneous, saturated specimens of sands containing fines whose ...

Effect of Sand Addition on Laterite Soil Stabilization

Materials
Lateritic soils, particularly abundant in tropical regions, have been successfully used in the construction of unbound layers of flexible pavements in Brazil since the 1970s. Despite their potential, these soils are often discarded or only recommended after stabilization processes, based on traditional parameters such as gradation requirements and ...

Cutting Through the Green: A Case for Grassland Archaeology Using UAV Multispectral Data

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in low‐altitude remote sensing are needed to improve the effectiveness of archaeological prospection in the Netherlands. The geomorphological situation and land use history make applying various remote sensing and geophysical technologies particularly challenging.

Effects of sand content and grain size on the compression behaviour of clayey sand

Frontiers in Built Environment
While extensive studies have been conducted on the compressibility of clay and sand, soils commonly encountered in natural environments or hydraulic reclamation projects are often gap-graded mixtures of coarse and fine particles, such as sand-clay or ...
