Soil salinity effects on pollen and pollinator visitation in a buzz‐pollinated glycophyte, Solanum carolinense

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Human activity has significantly altered the salt cycle, affecting an estimated 2.5 billion acres of soil worldwide. Elevated soil salinity is a well‐known plant stressor, but it may also affect interactions between plants and insects, which are often sodium limited.

Nutrient losses by water erosion

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2003
Water erosion causes soil degradation, which is closely related to nutrient losses either in, the soluble form or adsorbed to soil particles, depending mainly on the adopted soil management system.

Export of radioactive cesium from agricultural fields under simulated rainfall in Fukushima

open access: yes, 2015
In this study, we investigated the impact of rainfall on runoff, soil erosion and consequently on the discharge of radioactive cesium in agricultural fields in Fukushima prefecture using a rainfall simulator. Simulated heavy rainfalls (50 mm h) generated

Evaluating the Impacts of Fertilization and Rainfall on Multi-Form Phosphorus Losses from Agricultural Fields: A Case Study on the North China Plain

open access: yesAgronomy
Excessive fertilizer application increases the risk of eutrophication and agricultural non-point source pollution (ANPS) in rivers near farmland. However, the processes and mechanisms of runoff and phosphorus losses, particularly in the interflow, under ...

Erodibilidade de um nitossolo háplico alumínico determinada em condições de campo Erodibility of a typic hapludox evaluated under field conditions

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2007
O termo erodibilidade do solo (fator K na Equação Universal de Perda de Solo - EUPS) expressa a suscetibilidade natural do solo à erosão hídrica. O fator K representa a taxa de perda de solo por unidade de erosividade da chuva (fator R na EUPS).
