Carbon, Nitrogen, and Corresponding Stable Isotope Signatures Reveal Channel Banks as Major Sediment Sources in a Tropical Agricultural Watershed

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncertainties about the applicability of δ13C and δ15N as tracers of sediment sources in tropical river basins highlight the need for more in‐depth investigations of these isotopes. This study therefore assessed the effectiveness of δ13C and δ15N signatures in discriminating sediment sources in an agricultural catchment in Northeast Brazil ...

THE INFLUENCE OF WETLAND TYPE AND WETLAND PROXIMITY ON RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY VALUES [PDF]

open access: yes
Using detailed residential housing and wetland location data, we determine relative preferences for proximity to four broad classes of wetlands, as expressed through housing values. Implicit prices for proximity to open-water and scrub-shrub wetlands are

The native flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (Saskatchewan, Canada): taxonomy, biogeography, habitats and conservation

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
This study reports for the first time a checklist of native vascular plants and provides a comprehensive analysis of the flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (RLBR) in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. To complete an inventory of the regional flora, I conducted intensive field investigations during 2010–2025 and employed detailed examination

Impact of Refined Boundary Conditions of Land Objects on Urban Hydrological Process Simulation

open access: yesLand
Urbanization has led to an increase in impervious areas and, consequently, an increase in the surface runoff volume and runoff rate. This has exacerbated urban flooding and highlighted the importance of modeling urban hydrological processes.

Terniopsis chanthaburiensis (Podostemaceae), a new record for China and its complete plastid genome

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The genus Terniopsis consists of plants that have not been thoroughly studied, with many species remaining taxonomically unresolved. In this study, Terniopsis chanthaburiensis is reported as a new record of China based on morphological traits. Then, we assembled and annotated its chloroplast genome based on genome skimming data.

Sedum zhenghaianum (Crassulaceae), a new species from Zhejiang and Jiangxi, East China

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In this paper, Sedum zhenghaianum sp. nov. is described as a new species based on morphological and molecular analyses, and its taxonomic relationships are discussed. Morphological analysis indicates that S. zhenghaianum should be classified in the genus Sedum sect. Sedum and is distinct from the related species S. tosaense in morphology, e.g.

Two new records for the flora of Paraguay: Stemodia diplohyptoides and S. lobelioides (Plantaginaceae:Gratioleae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Stemodia diplohyptoides M.M.Sosa & Dematt. and S. lobelioides Lehm. (Gratioleae, Plantaginaceae) are reported for the first time in Paraguay, found in Alto Paraná and Presidente Hayes departments, respectively. These new records extend the known geographical range of both species, representing the northern records to date, S.

Urban heat island linkages with the landscape morphology

open access: yesScientific Reports
The landscape consists of a mosaic of interacting ecosystem elements, which maintain stability and aid in sustaining crucial services. Unplanned developmental activities leading to the transition of pervious surfaces into impervious/paved surfaces have ...
