Effect of Soil Texture on Estimates of Soil-Column Carbon Dioxide Flux Comparing Chamber and Gradient Methods

Vadose Zone Journal, 2018
A key component of the global C balance includes soil CO emissions. Both chamber- and gradient-based methods have been effectively used for determination of soil CO efflux.

Environmental and Genetic Effects on the Composition of Palm Oil From Hybrid Plant Clones of Caiaué and Oil Palm

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interspecific hybrids (IEH OxG) obtained from the crossing of Elaeis oleifera (Eo) and Elaeis guineensis (Eg) are resistant to some diseases that affect Eg in some regions of South America, and commercial growing in several countries has been established.

High-resolution land surface modelling over Africa: the role of uncertain soil properties in combination with forcing temporal resolution [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences
Land surface modelling runs conducted with the Community Land Model version 5.0 (CLM5) over Africa at 3 km resolution were carried out, and we assessed the impact of different sources of soil information and different upscaling strategies for the soil ...

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Waste Polystyrene Over Fe–B Composite Catalyst for Enhanced Liquid Fuel Production

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify

Valorization of Post‐Consumer Waste From Metallized Flexible Packaging and Industrial EPM Waste: Development of Sustainable Composites

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Post‐consumer metallized flexible packaging waste and industrial EPM waste are transformed into sustainable composites through mechanical recycling. The incorporation of 30 wt% EPM provides the most favorable balance between stiffness, ductility, and impact resistance, achieving 53.36 kJ/m2.

Integrating machine learning, deep learning, and image analysis for seed species classification

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The growing demand for wildflower seeds in ecological restoration requires reliable species identification, yet current market products often contain heterogeneous species. As seed identification is labor‐intensive and requires advanced botanical knowledge, we evaluated multiple segmentation and classification approaches to determine ...

Machine Learning-Based Comparative Analysis on Direct and Indirect Mapping of Soil Texture Types Through Soil Particle Size Fractions Using Multi-Source Remote Sensing

Agriculture
Soil texture, defined by the proportions of sand, silt, and clay particles in the soil, is one of the most essential physical properties of soil. High-resolution soil texture data can provide critical parameter support for soil hydrological modeling ...

Inter‐ and intraspecific variation in theropod dinosaur dental microwear and its palaeoecological implications

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Differences in skull and tooth morphology, stomach contents, and estimated bite force between medium‐to‐large sized (≥100 kg) predatory theropod dinosaurs have long been suspected to correlate with differences in their diets and dietary guilds (e.g., hypercarnivory, piscivory).

Interpretation of Soil Textural Class with Textural Group

          In this paper an attempt has been made to elaborate as well as focus on textural group and textural classes which are very important. The overall textural designation of a soil as determined from the relative proportion of its sand, silt and clay contents is called the textural class.
