Do stones modify the spatial distribution of fire induced soil water repellency? Preliminary data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Water repellency is a property of many fire-affected soils that contributes to delayed wetting rates and shows many hydrological and geomorphological consequences.

A Soil Water Repellency Empirical Model

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2009
The contact angle (α) varies nonlinearly with the soil water content (θ g ) in water‐repellent soils; however, a quantitative description of such a θ g dependence of α is still lacking.

Seeding in single species aggregations promotes evenness of diverse shrub species in Banksia woodlands in the first year of growth

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Species interactions are an overlooked yet important determinant of plant community assembly in ecological restoration. Specifically, they may determine species that are helped or hindered by neighboring plants during community assembly. Evidence suggests that intraspecific aggregation in combination with interspecific segregation

An inquiry‐based activity to teach about insects of medico‐legal importance: Lessons from Redi's landmark experiment

open access: yesNatural Sciences Education, Volume 55, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract In this article, we describe an inquiry‐based teaching activity developed in a public high school in Brazil. The objectives were to (a) develop an experimental activity grounded on the students’ autonomy for formulating and testing hypotheses, (b) address Biology topics from a historical and multidisciplinary perspective, (c) stimulate skills ...

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

ORIGEM DOS COMPOSTOS HIDROFÓBICOS E SEUS EFEITOS EM FLORESTAS DE Pinus E Eucalyptus

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2015
Hydrophobicity can be understood as the soil water repellency or difficulty to soil wetting. This is associated with the coating of soil particles by hydrophobic organic substances and currently there are numerous reports of water repellency in forest ...

La repelencia al agua inducida por el fuego está controlada por pequeñas variaciones en las propiedades del suelo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fire induced soil water repellency (WR) is controlled by many different factors (temperature reached, amount and type of fuel, etc.). Soil properties may determine the occurrence and intensity of this property in burned soils.

Finger Flow Development in Layered Water‐Repellent Soils

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2018
Core Ideas The texture of the top layer controlled infiltration more than that of the sublayer. Finger flow was more uniform in soils with gravel but irregular in
