Integration of Nutrition and Organic Agriculture Framework in Managing Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Ruminants

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Gastrointestinal nematode infections damage the gastrointestinal epithelial tissues of ruminants, affecting nutrient utilization and overall production performance. This review outlines host‐gastrointestinal nematode interactions and discusses integrated control strategies, including nutritional supplementation, grazing management, vaccines, and ...

Effect of initial void ratio on the soil water characteristics of unsaturated soil at high suctions

Shuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2022
In arid and semi-arid regions, such as in northwestern China, unsaturated soils at high suction or over a wide suction range are widespread in various geotechnical designs.

Application of dynamic modelling and model‐based predictive control to enhance a cooling tower

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Model predictive control (MPC) applied to improve the operation of cooling towers. Abstract Model predictive control (MPC) differs from traditional feedback control by making predictions within a time horizon, providing better control actions for the process.

Study on the Effect of Soil Type and Salinity on Water–Soil Characteristic Curves of Saline Soils Based on the Vapor Balance Technique

Advances in Civil Engineering
The soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) describes the relationship between water content and soil suction, which is an important tool for determining the engineering properties of unsaturated soil. By measuring SWCC through vapor equilibrium technique,

Fluid‐induced slip on a rate‐and‐state fault during co‐ and post‐injection: The interplay of fluid pressure diffusion and poroelastic stress

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Fault slip can occur ahead of the injection pressure front due to poroelastic stress. Our model captures the interaction of pressure, stress, and friction, providing new insights into injection‐induced seismicity and post‐injection fault slip. Shut‐in operations can either mitigate or accelerate seismic events depending on fault conditions and ...

Suction tests on sliding soil in interface landslide based on filter paper method

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
Suction is a decisive factor to control the state of unsaturated soils. The filter paper method is an indirect method for measuring suction, which has the advantages of low cost, large measuring range and high precision.

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Assessing plant water status: Part 1 – Classical methods

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract As a result of the changing climate, water scarcity poses a significant threat to crop and pasture production. Although soil water content can indicate drought, its measurements often provide limited spatial resolution and are weakly correlated with plant water status, producing misleading drought assessments.
