The topographic growth of mountain ranges at convergent margins results from the complex interaction between the motion of lithospheric plates, crustal shortening, rock uplift and exhumation. Constraints on the timing an...

The nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between leguminous plants and soil bacteria, collectively termed rhizobia, is a major contributor of fixed nitrogen to the biosphere. The ability of legumes to secure nitrogen from the atmos...

Vegetation optical depth (VOD), as a key parameter of vegetation, plays an important role in the process of vegetation growth and change. The spaceborne Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) technolog...

In most temperate grasslands, cattle grazing can promote physiognomic changes on plant communities, as well as changes in species growth patterns. Through these changes in vegetation, cattle grazing can generate changes ...

Studies of the palaeobiology of titanosaur eggs are significantly more common than studies of titanosaur-egg-bearing strata. Nevertheless, the latter provide significant insight into palaeoenvironmental conditions associ...

Grasslands have to be considered not only as a mean for providing foods for domestic herbivore but also as an important biome of terrestrial biosphere. This function of grasslands as an active component of our environmen...

Short-chain perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), such as perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), are increasingly detected in agricultural soils, irrigation water, and crop tissues, yet their biological effects at low, environmental...

Nature-based solutions (NbS) for urban stormwater management, including bioretention systems, constructed wetlands, green roofs, and permeable pavements, are increasingly promoted as climate adaptation tools that enhance...

Abstract Background Abrupt declines in vegetation productivity risk irreversible transitions. However, the magnitude of such declines (abruptness)—a key determinant ranging from nonlinear reversible transitions to nonl...

As one of composition materials (asphalt, aggregate, mineral powder) for hydraulic asphalt concrete, the mineral powder has a messy process of manufacture. Comparatively, the cement is easily processed and available for ...

Due to the continuous use of agrochemicals in agriculture, appreciable quantities of herbicides and their degradation products can accumulate in the ecosystem, as a consequence of the reduction of the purification capaci...

Tesis de Doctorado Los suelos son ecosistemas complejos y dinámicos que sostienen numerosos procesos biológicos con un rol clave en la provisión de servicios ecosistémicos. La sostenibilidad de estos procesos depende...

Com intuito de elevar o potencial terapêutico e cosmético das águas termais, foram desenvolvidos diversos processos de adição de argilas e solos orgânicos às referidas águas cujo produto deste processo é o fango...

La intensificación de la agricultura a generado una degradación de los suelos en los agroecositemas de la pampa húmeda y subhúmeda Argentina que ha teniendo efectos sobre propiedades físicas y químicas del suelo,...

“El presente proyecto consiste en un estudio de pre-factibilidad para el desarrollo del mercado de proppant en la Republica Argentina. En el mismo se explica detalladamente todo el proceso operacional de las perforacio...

La historia geológica y climática del noroeste Argentino presenta fuertes cambios producto de los constantes procesos orogénicos y climáticos ocurridos durante el Neógeno y períodos glaciares e interglaciares del C...

The germination requirement of native species are key factors in the ecological restoration of degraded ecosystem. A variety of plant seeds are affected by dormancy. Therefore, the knowladge of processes and enviromental...
