Afforestation priority for multiple objectives at national scale: Italy as a case study
Abstract Introduction Afforestation is increasingly recognized as a key strategy to address climate change and ecological degradation, offering multiple ecosystem services. However, strategic planning is needed to ensure that afforestation actions are ecologically effective and economically efficient by targeting areas where ecosystem service provision

Abstract Introduction Biocrusts are increasingly recognized for their contribution to soil stability, hydrology, nutrient cycling, and energy balance in drylands, yet practical field methods for assessing functional roles are limited. Existing approaches typically rely on cover estimates, taxonomic identification, or laboratory analyses, providing ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] varieties are categorized into different relative maturity groups (MGs) that correspond to the approximate region that the variety is best adapted. Maturity is an important trait that growers consider when deciding which varieties to plant and for breeders as a covariate to compare genotypes.

Shrub encroachment in subalpine meadows reduces soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralization rates and its temperature sensitivity (Q10), particularly in surface soil. This shift is driven by soil acidification, increased stable carbon content, and altered microbial network interactions.
