Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Crop insurance and irrigation behavior: The conditional role of pumping costs

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Excessive water use for irrigation can accelerate the depletion of water resources, undermining agriculture's resilience to weather‐related shocks. Understanding how farmers make water use decisions is essential for developing effective water management policies.

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Reproductive stages in lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) occur earlier with increasing temperature

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

The plant‐available water associated with the four critical soil suctions vary depending on the different soil textures

Vadose Zone Journal
Critical soil suctions of plant‐available water (PAW), including the soil water suction at field capacity (hFC), threshold suction (hthreshold), tipping suction (htipping), and permanent wilting point (hPWP).

Exposure to heat waves and drought improves subsequent leaf heat tolerance for five oak species in southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Given the threats of climate change, we investigated the impact of high temperatures separately and in combination with reduced soil water on leaf heat tolerance for five oaks (Fagaceae) with overlapping ranges in southern California, USA: Quercus agrifolia and Q. chrysolepis (evergreen species), Q. douglasii and Q.

Agronomic potential of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) based organic-phosphate liquid fertilizer on strawberry growth, yield and fruit quality in contrasting soil types

Environmental Challenges
The valorisation of invasive aquatic species such as the Eichhornia crassipes presents a sustainable alternative to synthetic fertilizers. This study assessed the agronomic performance of an organic liquid fertilizer derived from water hyacinth applied ...

Electrochemical Corrosion Behavior of X80 Steel in Sandy Soil Containing Simulated Haze Solution [PDF]

Cailiao Baohu
In recent years，rapid urbanization and industrialization have led to frequent haze events. Corrosive ions carried by atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5)，such as SO42－，NO3－，NH4＋，and Cl－，enter soil through rainfall deposition and alter the ...

Synthesis and Activity‐Based Protein Profiling Identifies Aldo‐Keto Reductase 1C3 as Target Protein of Myxoglucamides

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Myxoglucamide A—a novel glycolipopeptide isolated from myxobacteria—was synthesized, and activity‐based protein profiling identified aldo‐keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) as its main target in human cells. Structure‐activity relationship studies, together with biophysical characterization and X‐ray crystallography, elucidated the structural basis of AKR1C3 ...
