Flood Risk Management Using Representative Hillslopes: Insights From a Historical Flood in Southwest Germany

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
A coupled hydrologic and hydraulic modelling framework relying on representative hillslope models and scaled using hydraulic routing schemes is proposed to simulate Hortonian overland flow at intermediate scales. Using a reconstructed historic summer storm in southwest Germany (1994), we show how hillslope scale nature‐based flood prevention measures ...

Research on the tense state of soil, the workings bodies of ploughing machines and their influence on hauling resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objectif : La présente étude a été menée dans le but de mettre en évidence l'identification de l'état de contrainte du sol lors du processus d'interaction avec différents organes de travail des machines aratoires (OTMA) à des profondeurs différentes, et

Spatial Layout of Trees on Farms Influences Magnitude and Timing of River Flow Peak

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Effectiveness of agroforestry as a lowland NFM strategy is spatially modelled for a range of planting layouts. Peak flow for a 10‐year storm was attenuated by 2.6% and delayed by 19 min with just 0.6% catchment tree coverage under riparian planting alone. Increasing coverage provided a strongly diminishing return in flood peak attenuation.

Development and Performance Testing of a Combined Cultivating Implement and Organic Fertilizer Applicator for Sugarcane Ratooning

open access: yesAgriEngineering
Efficient sugarcane ratooning management requires maintaining soil organic carbon (SOC) balance and improving soil physical properties. Retaining agricultural residues and applying organic fertilizers are essential for sustaining SOC levels.

Stemflows and Preferential Flows: A Historical Review and Challenges for the Future

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Possible implementation of stemflow in the MIPS model where all water in the system is represented as particles in pathways of specified velocity. Stemflow (green particles) can be treated as a localised input with probabilities of entering higher velocity pathways than throughfall, depending on the input rates.

Non-inverting Tillage: Early-Stage Effects on Soil Mechanical Behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Organic farmers often claim positive effects of non-inverting and reduced tillage systems. There is a need of quantifying tilth characteristics in the former plough layer of soil converted to such tillage systems.

Targeting phosphorus loss with carbon farming practices? Results from an on‐farm study

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Agricultural soils lose P to waterbodies and C to the atmosphere. Reversing the C trend requires change in management (carbon farming), but what is the effect of carbon farming practices on P transport from soils to waterbodies? This was empirically studied by analyzing the P loss risks from 20 farms participating in a 5‐year on‐farm carbon ...

Persistence and potential of soil organic carbon in nature‐based climate solutions: A review of managed disturbances

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 811-830, May 2026.
Implementing nature‐based climate solutions is important for mitigating climate change, which is a global issue, but requires local adjustments in management practices. Using the association between soil carbon and minerals as a proxy for carbon persistence, we evaluated the effect of different management regimes on soil carbon sequestration and loss ...
