Post-fire Management Effects on Hillslope-Stream Sediment Connectivity in a Mediterranean Forest Ecosystem
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract] Forest fires intensify sediment transport and aggravate local and off-site consequences of soil erosion. This study evaluates the influence of post-fire measures on structural and functional sediment connectivity ...
Sustainability by function (SbF): a case study in a rainfed vineyard to reduce the loss of soil nutrients
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract:] The effectiveness of a seeded cover crop to minimize soil nutrient losses was evaluated in a rainfed vineyard. Two sediment tanks were installed (ST2: drainage area with high ground cover (GC: 82%) and ST3: ...
Reactive transport model of gypsum karstification in physically and chemically heterogeneous fractured media
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract:] Gypsum dissolution leads to the development of karstic features within much shorter timescales than in other sedimentary rocks, potentially leading to rapid deterioration of groundwater quality and increasing ...
Sustainability of Groundwater Resources of Weathered and Fractured Schists in the Rural Areas of Galicia (Spain)
(Springer, 2022)
[Abstract] Water supply deficits in droughts, groundwater pollution and climate change are the main challenges for the sustainability of groundwater resources from hard-rock aquifers in rural areas of Galicia (Spain). Here, ...
Impact of forest-pasture conversion on soil physical and chemical properties
(Instituto Federal Sul de Minas Gerais, 2021)
[Abstract:] The objective of this paper is to assess the changes in soil physical and chemical properties resulting from the conversion of native forest to pasture and pasture to secondary forest in the state of Santa ...
Post-fire Management Effects on Sediment (Dis)Connectivity in Mediterranean Forest Ecosystems: Channel and Catchment Response
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)
[Abstract] Forest fires and post-fire practices influence sediment connectivity (SC). In this study, we use the ‘aggregated index of connectivity’ (AIC) to assess SC in five Mediterranean catchments (198–1090 ha) affected ...
Digitalisation for nuclear waste management: predisposal and disposal
(Springer, 2023)
[Abstract:] Data science (digitalisation and artificial intelligence) became more than an important facilitator for many domains in fundamental and applied sciences as well as industry and is disrupting the way of research ...
A non-isothermal reactive transport model of the long-term geochemical evolution at the disposal cell scale in a HLW repository in granite
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract:] The assessment of the long-term performance of the engineered barrier systems of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) repositories requires the use of reactive transport models. Here a non-isothermal reactive ...
Phosphorus Fractionations and Availability in Areas under Different Management Systems in the Cerrado
(MDPI, 2023-03-24)
[Abstract] The input of organic matter in the soil by the no-tillage system (NTS) increases as the system becomes established, raising the levels of organic phosphorus (P) and reducing the P soil adsorption. This study ...
Past Sewage Sludge Application Did Not Alter Soil Chemical Properties or Abundance of Most Abundant Bacterial Families in an Agroforestry System
(Elsevier, 2023-02-10)
[Abstract] Forest management practices impact the amount of organic matter reaching the soil, but also the soil properties and/or vegetation composition that influence soil microbiome structure and composition. After ...
