Landslide characteristics in the Loess Plateau, northern China [PDF]

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2020
Abstract Landslides play an important role in landscape evolution of the Loess Plateau, northern China, but they have not been systematically analysed across the region. The contribution to regional rates of erosion and sediment budgets is poorly known as a consequence. Co-seismic landslides are a significant natural hazard, and exacerbate the threat

Relationships among protozoa, bacteria and fungi in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-contaminated soils

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Soil bacterial and fungal communities play key roles in the degradation of organic contaminants, and their structure and function are regulated by bottom-up and top-down factors. Microbial ecological effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and

Evaluating the Relationship Between the Area and Latitude of Large Igneous Provinces and Earth's Long‐Term Climate State

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 153-168., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
