Global environmental degradation resulting from unsustainable human activities has become a critical development challenge in the 21st century. The Didessa watershed in southwestern Ethiopia, a region dominated by subsis...

One of the environmental consequences and conflicts arising from land use and land cover changes is the intensification of soil erosion, which seriously threatens urban water and soil resources. Therefore, it is necessar...

Approximately 1 billion ha of the global land surface is currently salt-affected, representing about 7% of the earth's land surface. Whereas most of it results from natural geochemical processes, an estimated 30% of irri...

Niche dimensionality provides a general theoretical explanation for biodiversity-more niches, defined by more limiting factors, allow for more ways that species can coexist. Because plant species compete for the same set...

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN, Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) is the most economically damaging soilborne pathogen affecting soybean, causing significant yield losses in the United States and worldwide. Current commercial cu...

Soil erosion is a major environmental concern that affects land productivity and water quality. Although soil erosion is a serious global environmental challenge, understanding its potential influence in the Bardha Water...

This paper introduces a hybrid deep learning architecture to precisely detect surface water resources in deserted and dry areas in Central India with Sentinel-2 RGB images. Conventional spectral techniques are affected b...

Reversing the effects of agricultural resource degradation – and its implications for ecosystem services (ESS) – require targeted policy action. Comprehensive and consistent estimates of the magnitudes and monetary v...
