Gully erosion in semiarid regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Gully erosion, as one of the most critical and destructive water-made types of erosion, results in displacement of huge mass of soil, sedimentation, and degradation.

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

A Holistic Assessment of Water Footprint and Irrigation Performance Indicators With Respect to Agricultural Water Productivity

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified prolonged droughts in many regions, including Türkiye, resulting in growing pressure on already limited water resources. Agriculture, as the largest water‐consuming sector, faces critical challenges in sustaining productivity under increasing water scarcity. In this context, assessing water use efficiency through

The intra- and inter-annual responses of soil respiration to climate extremes in a semiarid grassland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Increasing frequency and magnitude of climate extremes could fundamentally affect terrestrial carbon (C) cycling. However, as the second-largest terrestrial C flux, soil respiration (SR) responses to climate extremes are not well understood.

MANAGEMENT DISCRIMINANT PROPERTIES IN SEMIARID SOILS

open access: yesSoil Science, 1998
The physical properties of coarse - textured soils in semiarid regions often deteriorate with use. We hypostatized that the changes in the physical properties of the soil were related to the cropping sistem employed. 5urface sampled of 52 Entic Haplustolls under three diferents uses (24 under continuous cultivation), 18 under rotation wuth grass Ieys ...

Sewage Sludge and Cashew Bagasse Biochars Promote Changes in Selected Physical Attributes Related to the Structure of Degraded Dryland Soil

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated biochars from co‐pyrolysis of sewage sludge and cashew residues on physical quality of a degraded loamy sand soil. SPB applied at 20 Mg ha−1 reduced bulk density by 7.74%, whereas most porosity attributes were driven by soil reconsolidation rather than biochar. Aggregate stability varied with biochar type, with SPB promoting larger
