Performance of hybrid constructed wetland for piggery wastewater treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The environmental impact of the livestock sector in North-East Italy directly affects water (nitrates accumulation and eutrophication). Through the “Nitrate Directive” (91/676/EEC), the EU aims to reduce water pollution caused or induced by nitrates from

Rethinking Environmental Impact Assessment for nature positive development

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Achieving “nature positive” development within existing regulatory frameworks will be challenging. Halting and reversing biodiversity loss requires protection, restoration, and enhancement of ecosystems alongside a fundamental shift in how biodiversity is valued and quantifiable improvements are assessed.

The Phytochrome-Interacting Factor OsPIL11 Coordinates Grain Weight and Grain Number Via Directly Regulating the Expression of OsMIR530 and OsCKX2 in Rice

open access: yesRice
Grain weight and panicle architecture are pivotal determinants of rice yield, yet the regulatory mechanisms coordinating these traits remain elusive. Here, we functionally characterized a phytochrome-interacting factor, OsPIL11, serving as a negative ...

Renewable and Nonrenewable Resource Theory Applied to Coastal Agriculture, Forest, Wetland, and Fishery Linkages [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper addresses tradeoffs in wetland development using a framework that integrates economic theory of renewable and nonrenewable resources. The theory treats wetland development as use of a nonrenewable resource, while wetland preservation protects ...

Local Structures of Se and Br in Cretaceous–Paleogene Boundary Sediments and Concentration Effects of Ferrihydrite Originating From Impact Ejecta

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Chemical states of Se and Br atoms in the KPg boundary sediments from Stevns Klint were studied using XAFS spectroscopy. The high concentrations of Se4+ could become an index of the degree to which the global environment was soiled with dust and ash derived from impact ejecta or volcanic eruptions.

Modeling the impacts of grazing management on livestock behavior and performance: A case study in the Peruvian Andes

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Our modeling study shows that livestock management strongly influences grazing behavior and animal performance in the Peruvian Andes. Furthermore, adjusting stocking rates and improving animal distribution can enhance forage intake and body condition while increasing forage biomass.

Green water, wetlands, and atmospheric moisture recycling ‐ An emerging new paradigm for grassland science

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
The importance of green water in water resource management. Conceptual classification of terrestrial water components highlighting the central role of green water in land‐atmosphere interactions. This schematic distinguishes green water (soil moisture available for plant uptake and evapotranspiration) from blue water (surface water, groundwater, and ...

Constructing Synthesizable Evaluations of Technical Interventions to Reduce Wildlife‐Caused Agricultural Losses 构建易用于证据整合的野生动物致农业损失缓解措施成效评估

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, EarlyView.
A framework with eight key components to assess the effectiveness of technical measures to reduce wildlife‐caused agriculture loss. ABSTRACT Technical interventions to reduce wildlife‐caused agricultural losses (e.g., crops, livestock, and fisheries) are essential for human‐wildlife coexistence.

Transforming Agricultural Water Management Through the Water–Energy–Food Nexus: Trends, Opportunities, Barriers and Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural water management (AWM) is increasingly transitioning towards transformative thinking, where interconnected sectors, including water, energy and food, are managed holistically. Trends point towards cross‐sectoral and harmonised strategies to optimise water use efficiency and productivity, integrate renewable energy, promote ...
