Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Biological Degradation of Spent Coffee Grounds by White Rot Fungi
Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are an extensively generated byproduct of coffee production and consumption. This study demonstrates the ability of white rot fungi to degrade SCG, achieving more than 40% carbohydrate reduction and producing active lignocellulose‐degrading enzymes, highlighting a potential biological approach for the valorization of this ...

Potential of use wood biomass ash in the cement composites
Due to high energy dependency, the European Union´s policy is turned to promotion of the use of renewable energy throughout directives with culmination with the agreement at the 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21) in Paris. Within, European Union (EU) has put forward the share of renewable energy increasing to at least a 27 % until 2030. Among these

ABSTRACT Biochar has been widely investigated for its potential to improve substrate properties and plant performance, offering a potential partial replacement for peat in soilless cultivation amid declining peat availability. However, information on its short‐term physiological and molecular effects during the early establishment of container‐grown ...

ABSTRACT Biochar provides multiple agronomic benefits, including carbon sequestration and reduced nutrient leaching. This study evaluated the effects of wood‐ and crab shell‐based biochar, enriched with cow urine or liquid seaweed extract, on soil nitrogen (N) dynamics and early spring wheat (Triticum aestivum) growth. Three experiments were conducted:
