Compaction effects on crop yields in Vertisols: Transient under wet years

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Soil compaction commonly impacts productivity in Australian cotton production systems. A field experiment conducted during the 2019–2020 season showed that compaction decreased lint yield by 27%.

High Density Polyethylene/Ground Tire Rubber Composites Compatibilized by Dicumyl Peroxide

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the thermal behavior of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) was first evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which confirmed a peak decomposition temperature around 172°C, highlighting its incompatibility with standard melt‐mixing techniques for most polyolefins. To overcome this limitation,

Soil Compaction on Forest Soils from Different Kinds of Tires and tracks and Possibility of Accurate Estimate

Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2008
An 8-WD forwarder loaded with 9,520 kg of timber, and fitted with low or high tire pressures, or tires rounded with tracks, was repeatedly driven on soil for 1, 8 and 24 passes to investigate mechanistic influences on soil compaction.

Environmental effects of the Manganui ski field, Mt Taranaki/Egmont [PDF]

, 2012
During May 2012, the environmental effects of the Manganui ski field were examined. Permanent quadrats first established in 1974 to monitor vegetation changes were re-measured, vegetation mapping was conducted, modifications to ground form and drainage ...

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Evaluation of soil compaction using the dynamic penetration index and the soil physical characteristics approach on agricultural land in the Ketonggo sub-watershed, Indonesia

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management
Soil compaction is one of the problems faced due to land conversion in agriculture, directly impacting land productivity. This study aimed to identify the distribution of soil density with the Dynamic Penetration Index (DPI) method, the influence of land

Histovariability and fossil diagenesis of Pissarrachampsa (Pseudosuchia, Notosuchia, Baurusuchidae) from the Upper Cretaceous of Southeast Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Notosuchians were key components of western Gondwanan Cretaceous ecosystems in terrestrial predator niches and exhibited remarkable taxonomic and ecological diversity. Previous research has explored their physiology, metabolism, and histology, revealing varied growth patterns and life history strategies.
