An acoustic view of ocean mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Knowledge of the parameter K (turbulent diffusivity/"mixing intensity") is a key to understand transport processes of matter and energy in the ocean. Especially the almost vertical component of K across the ocean stratification (diapycnal diffusivity ...

Generating Tagged Micro‐ and Nanoparticles of Poly(ethylene furanoate) and Poly(ethylene terephthalate) as Reference Materials

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
We successfully developed poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene furanoate) (PEF) nanoparticles and microparticles, covalently tagged with Alexa Fluor 633 or Alexa Fluor 647, using both mechanical and solvent‐based approaches. The particles displaying hydrodynamic diameters between 200 and 700 nm, exhibited long‐term colloidal stability ...

Soil acidification impacts on water dynamics and global paddy rice production challenges

open access: yesDiscover Water
Soil acidification in paddy rice systems is a growing global challenge that threatens rice production, water dynamics, and ecosystem health, with significant implications for food security. This review examines the causes, prevalence, and impacts of soil

Effect of Soil Acidification on Temperature Sensitivity of Soil Respiration

open access: yesAgronomy
Soil pH significantly impacts microbial activity and community assembly, which in turn determines the temperature sensitivity (Q10) of soil respiration.

Understanding smallholder decision‐making to increase farm tree diversity: Enablers and barriers for forest landscape restoration in Western Kenya

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Integrating diverse trees and shrubs (hereafter ‘trees’) in agricultural landscapes has emerged as a crucial nature‐based solution to the triple challenge of biodiversity loss, climate change and food security. The potential benefits of on‐farm trees for both people and nature, however, are often constrained by inadequate consideration of ...

Modelling effects of acid deposition and climate change on soil and run-off chemistry at Risdalsheia, Norway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Elevated carbon dioxide levels, caused by anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, and higher temperature may lead to increased plant growth and uptake to nitrogen, but increased temperature may lead to increased nitrogen ...

Cryostratigraphy of Rhythmic Segregated Ice in Colluvium and Implications for Permafrost Slope Stability

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amount and stratigraphic setting of ground ice in permafrost slopes is a key control on the style and magnitude of permafrost mass wasting. Understanding the spatial and stratigraphic variations in ground ice distribution on permafrost slopes is therefore a fundamental property in assessing the stability of permafrost hillslopes.

National-Scale Assessment of Soil pH Change in Chinese Croplands from 1980 to 2018

open access: yesAgronomy
Soil acid–base status fundamentally regulates biogeochemical cycling and agroecosystem resilience by controlling nutrient solubility, cation exchange, and redox equilibria.

Time trends & mechanism of soil acidification

open access: yes
The effects of acid atmospheric deposition on forest ecosystems have been studied intensively in the past two decades. Measurements of element budgets in forested ecosystems throughout the world have shown that acid deposition may deplete stores of exchangeable base cations in the soil, decrease the soil pH, increase rates of mineral weathering, and ...
