A Method for Identifying Rainfall‐Runoff Events at Sub‐Hourly Time Scales: Applications for Nature‐Based Solutions and Water Resources

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how changes in catchment conditions affect ecohydrology in response to rainfall‐runoff events is crucial when developing informed strategies to enhance flow resilience, restore natural habitats, interpret water quality data or reduce flood risk.

Modelling effects of seasonal variation in water table depth on net ecosystem CO₂ exchange of a tropical peatland [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2014
Seasonal variation in water table depth (WTD) determines the balance between aggradation and degradation of tropical peatlands. Longer dry seasons together with human interventions (e.g.

Improved Cerrado Wetland Mapping Through Seasonal Moisture Metrics, Terrain Information and Semantic Segmentation

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

Physico-chemical properties of shallow and deep peat soils planted with pineapple (Ananas comosus L.) / Ahmad Azam Mohamad Zahari [PDF]

, 2018
The physico-chemical properties of peat soil are dynamically altered after several years of utilization. This study aims to assess the physico-chemical properties of shallow and deep peat soils at two different depths after several years of pineapple ...

The Role of Peat Layers on Iron Dynamics in Peatlands

Journal of Tropical Soils, 2010
The research aimed to study the effect of peat thickness and humification stage of the peat material on Fe solubility at the peatlands with sulfidic material as substratum. The research was conducted at three conditionals of ombrogen peatlands ie ; deep,

Water table variations on different land use units in a drained tropical peatland island of Indonesia

Hydrology Research, 2021
Restoration and water table control on peatlands to limit fire risk are national priorities in Indonesia. The present study was initiated at Padang Island, Sumatra, to increase understanding on peatland hydrology in the tropic.

REINFORCEMENT MODELING USING GEOTEXTILE FOR BEARING CAPACITY OF SHALLOW FOUNDATION ON PEAT SOIL

Abstract: This research aims to determine the effect of woven geotextile reinforcement on increasing the bearing capacity of shallow foundations on peat soil. The peat soil sample from Sukadamai Village, Pedamaran District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, South Sumatra, with characteristics of water content (, 357.361%), specific gravity (Gs) 1.534 ...

Toward a mechanistic understanding of “peat collapse” and its potential contribution to coastal wetland loss

Ecology, 2019
Coastal wetlands are susceptible to loss in both health and extent via stressors associated with global climate change and anthropogenic disturbance. Peat collapse may represent an additional phenomenon contributing to coastal wetland loss in organic ...

Divergence Linked to Possible Ecological Speciation in Blind Mole Rats: Integration of Thermal Biology and Bite Force in the Upper Galilee Blind Mole Rat (Nannospalax galili)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...
