Variabilidad de δ13C y δ15N en suelo y hojarasca de cacao en El Oro, Ecuador
(Mexican Society of Soil Science, 2019-04-15)[Resumen] El cacao aporta niveles signif icativos de carbono (C) y nitrógeno(N) por las hojarascas; el cambio de manejo agronómico ocasiona variación en los contenidos de estos elementos en el suelo. El objetivo fue evaluar ... -
Estimation of elemental composition of agricultural soils from West Azerbaijan, Iran, using mid-infrared spectral models
(Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, 2019-04-30)[Abstract] Characterizing the elemental composition provides useful information about the weathering degree of soils. In Miandoab County, Northern Iran, this characterization was missing, and thus the objectives of this ... -
Impact of pig slurry application on soil and water losses: comparison with a historical series
(Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, 2019-04-30)[Abstract] Water erosion in soil is influenced by several factors, including rain, relief, cover, and management and conservation practices. Also, erosion is affected by pig slurry (PS) applied to the soil as a fertilizer. ... -
Reforested soil under drip irrigation with treated wastewater from poultry slaughterhouse
(Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, 2019-04-30)[Abstract] The disposal of treated effluents on soil is the main final use of wastewater in Brazil. Although this practice can promote improvements of some soil attributes, there is a need for monitoring in order to ensure ... -
Path coefficient analysis, a different approach to identify soil quality indicators
(Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, 2019-06-04)[Abstract] Soil quality indicators related to water erosion reduction can assist with correct soil management. The objective of this research was to identify some variables that could be used as soil quality indicators ... -
Pedotransfer function to estimate the soil structural “S” index and spatial variability in an oxisol within a livestock farming system
(Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola, 2020-02-17)[Abstract]: Various attributes are often required to build soil quality indicators. However, determining these attributes is time-consuming and requires several specific devices. Thus, it is desirable to develop indexes ... -
Long-Term Concentrations and Loads of Four Dissolved Macronutrients from Two Agroforestry Catchments in NW Spain
(MDPI, 2021)[Abstract] Understanding hydrological processes controlling stream chemistry and quantifying solute concentrations over time is crucial for estimating future alterations of water quality due to land use or climate change ... -
Hydrogeology and Groundwater Management in a Coastal Granitic Area With Steep Slopes in Galicia (Spain)
(Springer, 2021)[Abstract] Groundwater availability, management and protection are great challenges for the sustainability of groundwater resources in the scattered rural areas of the Atlantic regions of Europe where groundwater is the ... -
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 ... -
Community-Owned Rural Water Supplies in Galicia (Spain): Supporting Role in the Groundwater Self-Management
(Springer, 2021)[Abstract] The community-owned rural water supplies in the rural areas of Galicia developed spontaneously in response to the historical shortcomings of local administrations, which are a clear example of commons management ... -
Post-fire Practices Benefits on Vegetation Recovery and Soil Conservation in a Mediterranean Area
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Post-fire practices (PFP) aim to reduce soil erosion and favour vegetation recovery, but their effectiveness is spatially heterogeneous and under debate because of the economic and environmental costs. This study ... -
Drinking Water Provision and Quality at the Sahrawi Refugee Camps in Tindouf (Algeria) From 2006 to 2016
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Drinking water provision has been a constant challenge in the Sahrawi refugee camps, located in the desert near Tindouf (Algeria). The drinking water supply system is itself divided in three zones which pump ... -
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, ... -
Modelling of the long-term evolution and performance of engineered barrier system
(EDP Sciences, 2022)[Abstract:] Components of the so-called “multiple-barrier system” from the waste form to the biosphere include a combination of waste containers, engineered barriers, and natural barriers. The Engineered Barrier System ... -
Intra-annual sediment dynamic assessment in the Wei River Basin, China, using the AIC functional-structural connectivity index
(Elsevier, 2023)[Abstract:] Hydrological and sediment dynamics have changed considerably on the Chinese Loess Plateau during the last six decades due to large scale land use changes and numerous water regulation actions. Understanding the ... -
