ABSTRACT Rising global food demand has intensified agricultural practices that increase yields but often degrade soil, reduce biodiversity, and undermine long‐term sustainability. Nature‐based solutions such as agroforestry, which integrates perennial shrubs or trees with annual crops, offer pathways for sustainable intensification through income ...

ABSTRACT A 2‐year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted on a clay loam soil in Quebec, Canada, to evaluate the short‐term effect of spring‐seeded cover crop termination methods on soil health indicators. A mixture of field peas (Pisum sativum L.) with oats (Avena sativa L.) in 2022 and with faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in 2023 was seeded in early ...

ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are key drivers of soil functioning in agricultural systems. Yet the relative influence of soil properties and cropping practices on their diversity remains insufficiently understood. We investigated 60 cropland sites in western Switzerland, covering a broad range of soil properties and cropping practices, to explore

ABSTRACT Introduction Environmental stressors on the agricultural field are increasing, from global warming to the rise of the human population. Among the resulting challenges, plant diseases remain one of the most important causes of crop losses worldwide.

ABSTRACT Intercropping can enable sustainable intensification. In Africa, smallholder farmers rely on Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a staple food. Nevertheless, the performance of cassava intercropping emerges from management choices such as legume species selection, planting density, sowing time, and nitrogen (N) fertilisation as well as soil ...

ABSTRACT As the capital of Makuria, Tungul was a major sociopolitical center within medieval Nubia, being the seat of a bishopric and a monastic community. During the excavation of the Kom H monastery, three burial crypts (Crypts 1–3) were uncovered.

This article provides an application of the silt-suspension theory to a Bayesian-inference inversion for the geo-acoustic parameters in marine mud. The theory, with consequences that have been developed recently, postulates a suspension of water and clay mineral card-houses that supports moderately dilute concentrations of silt particles.

Prediction of silt soil subgrade moisture content based on unsaturated seepage theory
2011 Second International Conference on Mechanic Automation and Control Engineering, 2011In order to study the distribution of water in silt soil subgrade, this paper establish finite element model based on unsaturated seepage theory to research the groundwater level, rainfall, evaporation factors influencing on the moisture content of subgrade and side slope materials.

Geoacoustic parameter variations and inversion estimates with a silt-suspension theory of mud
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018Marine mud sediments can be modeled by a recent silt-suspension theory [Pierce, et al., JASA, 142, 2591 (2017) (A)], in which silt particles are embedded in a suspension of flocculated clay particles. This presentation investigates the influence on attenuation predictions from uncertainties in parameters such as the effective grain density and the ...
