From 2000 to 2003 we quantified drain flow, drain-and ground-water chemistry and hydrogeologic conditions on Twitchell Island in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The primary objective was to quantify processes affecting organic carbon concentrations and

Rapid thaw of the Earth's cryosphere in response to anthropogenic warming highlights the need to identify and understand the contrasting signatures of past ice‐sheet stability and collapse. The Kvarken archipelago, western Finland, at the centre of the former Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition

Abstract Background There are limited data on long‐term follow‐up of radiographic changes of the proximal sesamoid bones (PSBs) in Thoroughbred racehorses. The effect of training and racing on radiodensity of the PSBs in live Thoroughbreds has not been described.

Field hydraulic conducfivity of some malaysian peat [PDF]
Field measurements on the hydraulic conductivity (K) of several developed and undeveloped peat soils using auger hole method were conducted. Developed deep peat has hydraulic conductivity values in the range of 6.32x1O·' to 4.44 x 10"' (0.55 to 3.84 mid).

Mineral Stabilization Slows Losses of Peatland Carbon Following Long‐Term Drainage for Agriculture
Current soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and the potential gains if the mineral C deficit was fulfilled. (A) Total SOC stocks (purple) stacked with the potential gains if the mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) potential was achieved. MAOC potential is calculated via the mineral C deficit.

Tropical peat swamp forests provide many important ecosystem services, especially their function as global carbon sinks. These carbon‐rich wetlands are widespread in South America, yet few studies have examined carbon stocks or losses due to land use ...

Free‐living birds need to acquire enough food to fulfil their energetic needs, which may require more effort in habitats with less favourable conditions. Therefore, to maintain their necessary energy intake, birds need to adjust their foraging behaviour in response to varying habitat conditions.

Peatlands act as carbon sinks while representing major sources of biogenic gases such as methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), two potent greenhouse gases. Gas production and release in these peats soils are also influenced by overall warm temperatures

ABSTRACT Waterlogging and salinity stresses significantly affect crop productivity and often coincide in nature. While adaptive responses to each of the individual stresses have been studied in detail, the traits conferring tolerance to combined stresses (and thus the most appropriate targets for breeding) remain poorly understood. In the present work,

Decompacting a Late Holocene sea-level record from Loch Laxford, northwest Scotland. [PDF]
This thesis assesses the degree to which sediment compression affects a Late Holocene sea-level reconstruction from Loch Laxford, northwest Scotland. The reconstruction is based on analysis of a short sediment core (~0.7 m) that records a progressive ...
