Surface runoff simulation to mitigate the impact of soil erosion, case study of Třebsín (Czech Republic)

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2012
The relation between soil erosion and its redistribution on land strictly depends on the process of surface runoff formation during intensive rainfall. Therefore, interrupting and reducing continuous surface runoff, using adequate conservation measures ...

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Longer thaw seasons increase nitrogen availability for leaching during fall in tundra soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Climate change has resulted in warmer soil temperatures, earlier spring thaw and later fall freeze-up, resulting in warmer soil temperatures and thawing of permafrost in tundra regions.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Predicting soil carbon loss with warming

open access: yesNature, 2018
Crowther et al. reported that the best predictor of surface soil carbon (top 10 cm) losses in response to warming is the size of the surface carbon stock in the soil (that is, carbon stocks in plots that have not been warmed), finding that soils that are high in soil carbon also lose more carbon under warming conditions.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Gully erosion, land uses, water and soil dynamics: a case study of Nazareno (Minas Gerais, Brazil)

open access: yesDyna, 2016
Gully erosion is a critical issue worldwide. To correctly associate environmental data (as climate, soil, vegetation cover, topography, etc.) and soil erosion susceptibility with land uses remains a challenge in land management.

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Efeito de escarificação e da erosividade de chuvas sobre algumas variáveis de valores de erosão hídrica em sistemas de manejo de um nitossolo háplico Effect of chiseling and rainfall erosivity on some characteristics of water erosion in a nitosol under distinct management systems

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2008
O preparo do solo altera as suas condições físicas de superfície e subsuperfície e, conseqüentemente, influencia os valores de propriedades que se relacionam com a erosão hídrica.
