Shear strength features and soil water retention curve of a dual porosity expansive silt-bentonite mixture

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceEvaluation of soil shear strength is an important step in the stability analysis of earth structures, foundations and natural slopes. The shear strength pro le of unsaturated soil is dictated by the suction pro le.

Eco‐Geography Reverses Dominant AMR Reservoirs in Klebsiella pneumoniae: Integron‐Rich Mobilomes and Cross‐Niche Connectivity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dominant antimicrobial resistance reservoirs in Klebsiella pneumoniae vary across eco‐geographic settings rather than following a universal pattern. Integrated One Health and global genomic analyses show that lineage structure, integron load, and cross‐niche connectivity shape whether AMR burden accumulates primarily in human or nonhuman compartments ...

The Use of Digital Field Tensiometer and Soil Higrometer In Detecting Soil Water Retention Curve.

open access: yes, 2013
Tensiometer is a tauting measuring device with a unit of ground water resulting from the measurement results are hPa. Higrometer is a tool to measure the amount of content water in the soil.

Identifying a parameterisation of the soil water retention curve from on-ground GPR measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show the potential of on-ground Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) to identify the parameterisation of the soil water retention curve, i.e. its functional form, with a semi-quantitative analysis based on numerical simulations of the radar signal.

Transposase‐Assisted Donor Tethering Boosts Large‐Fragment HDR in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A transposase‐assisted donor tethering strategy is developed to enhance homology‐directed repair in plants. By recruiting donor DNA to double‐strand breaks and synergizing with repair pathway reprogramming and transcription‐coupled donor design, this system markedly improves large‐fragment targeted insertion efficiency, providing a robust platform for ...

Temporal covariance of spatial soil moisture variations: A mechanistic error modeling approach

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal
When estimating field‐scale average soil moisture from sensors measuring at fixed positions, spatial variability in soil moisture leads to “measurement errors” of the spatial mean, which may persist over time due to persistent soil moisture patterns ...

Extra Climate Benefits From Afforestation Due to Reduced Forest Fragmentation in China

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Afforestation in China reduced forest fragmentation in 2015, transforming 51.8 M ha of edge forests into interior forests. This enhanced carbon sequestration (1.4±0.2 Pg CO2e, a cooling biogeochemical effect), while reduced albedo (−0.9 Pg CO2e, a warming biophysical effect) partially offset the gain, yielding a net extra climate benefit of ...

Filter Paper Method for the Determination of the Soil Water Retention Curve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
High cost and long time required to determine a retention curve by the conventional methods of the Richards Chamber and Haines Funnel limit its use; therefore, alternative methods to facilitate this routine are needed.

Histone Modification Complex JMJ704‐HDA709 Negatively Regulates Salinity Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the rice histone demethylase JMJ704 interacts with HDA709―a H3K9ac deacetylase characterized herein―to form a chromatin‐modifying complex. Under salt stress, OsWRKY72 recruits this complex through interaction with JMJ704 to target loci, repressing the expression of oxidative stress and salt‐responsive genes via removal of ...

Determination of the soil water retention curve and the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity from the particle size distribution

open access: yes, 2007
Because of the complexity of the metrological determination of the soil water retention curve (SWRC), so-called pedotransfer functions (PTF) have been developed for several years.
