Role of shamal and easterly winds on the wave characteristics off Qatar, central Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Waves in the Arabian Gulf (Gulf) are dominated by shamal winds during winter and early summer. Although wave characteristics in the Gulf are broadly studied, features associated with various wind systems are not explicitly ...
Systematic laboratory approach to produce Mg-rich carbonates at low temperature
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2021 , Article)
Dolomite is a common Mg-rich carbonate in the geological record, but the mechanism of its formation remains unclear. At low temperature, the incorporation of magnesium ions into the carbonate minerals necessary to form ...
Socio-ecological vulnerability and resilience of mountain communities residing in capital-constrained environments
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
The study evaluated perceived reactions and counter-actions of Himalayan communities to climate change. The evaluation was conducted through identification and characterization of 62 socio-environment-specific indicators ...
Assessment of leaf morphological, physiological, chemical and stoichiometry functional traits for understanding the functioning of Himalayan temperate forest ecosystem
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
Leaf functional traits support plant survival and growth in different stress and disturbed conditions and respond according to leaf habit. The present study examined 13 leaf traits (3 morphological, 3 chemical, 5 physiological, ...
The Global Soil Mycobiome consortium dataset for boosting fungal diversity research
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Fungi are highly important biotic components of terrestrial ecosystems, but we still have a very limited understanding about their diversity and distribution. This data article releases a global soil fungal dataset of the ...
Impact of ambient temperature, precipitation and seven years of experimental warming and nutrient
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Global change is causing changes in temperature, precipitation, and nutrient availability. Alpine and polar regions are predicted to be among the most vulnerable for these changes. We applied a seven-year factorial experiment ...
Fuelwood and fodder consumption patterns among agroforestry-practicing smallholder farmers of the lower Himalayas, India
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Trees are important as a source of fuelwood and fodder for rural populations in the Himalayas. This paper analysed the fuelwood and fodder consumption patterns of rural households in 16 villages in Alaknanda Valley, ...

(
IOP Publishing
, 2021 , Article)
Visible active mixed metal ferrite intercalated semiconductor photocatalyst Mn0.6Zn0.4Fe2O4/g-C3N4 was prepared via facile hydrothermal and liquid assembly method for methylene blue (MB) dye degradation. The prepared samples ...
Deep eutectic solvents as alternative green solvents for the efficient desulfurization of liquid fuel: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article Review)
Increase in the requirement of energy consumption has been followed by a consistent rise in sulfur emission with economic and health issues. Moreover, it considerably decreases the efficacy of developed emission control ...
