Application of Hydrological and Sediment Modeling with Limited Data in the Abbay (Upper Blue Nile) Basin, Ethiopia

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
In most developing countries, biophysical data are scarce, which hinders evidence-based watershed planning and management. To use the scarce data for resource development applications, special techniques are required. Thus, the primary goal of this study

Modeling Sediment Yield with Current and Projected Climatic Scenarios in Andit Tid Watershed, Central Highland of Ethiopia

open access: yesJournal of Agriculture and Environment for International Development
Our ability to engage in long-term land management solutions that will benefit both land and water users is made possible by our understanding of how climate change affects sediment yield. This study aimed to determine the spatiotemporal distribution of

Impacts of climate change and human activities on sediment load in Longchuan River Basin, China

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: Longchuan River Basin in the Hengduan mountain region, China. Study focus: With the decrease in annual precipitation, the sediment yield on the slope and sediment delivery ratio (SDR) in the river channel, both play a critical role in ...

Sediment Yield in Dam-Controlled Watersheds in the Pisha Sandstone Region on the Northern Loess Plateau, China

open access: yesLand, 2021
Soil erosion has become the dominant environmental issue endangering sustainable development in agriculture and the ecosystem on the Loess Plateau. Determination of watershed soil erosion rates and sediment yields is essential for reasonable utilization ...

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Evaluation of the utility of sediment data in NASQAN (National Stream Quality Accounting Network) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Monthly suspended sediment discharge measurements, made by the USGS as part of the National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN), are analysed to assess the adequacy in terms of spatial coverage, temporal sampling frequency, accuracy of ...

Scenario modelling of basin-scale, shallow landslide sediment yield, Valsassina, Italian Southern Alps

open access: yes, 2005
International audienceThe SHETRAN model for determining the sediment yield arising from shallow landsliding at the scale of a river catchment was applied to the 180-km2 Valsassina basin in the Italian Southern Alps, with the aim of demonstrating that the

Widespread erosion on high plateaus during recent glaciations in Scandinavia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Glaciers create some of Earth’s steepest topography; yet, many areas that were repeatedly overridden by ice sheets in the last few million years include extensive plateaus.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Sediment yield at southwest Ethiopia's forest frontier [PDF]

open access: yesLand Degradation & Development, 2019
AbstractDeforestation is one of the major factors affecting soil erosion in tropical regions but to what extent does the crop growth in deforested areas protect the land from erosion? We evaluated the effect of deforestation on suspended sediment yield at the scale of zero‐order catchments by contrasting five paired small forest and cropland catchments
