Functionality of the temperate forests in the Western Himalaya with changing climate
( Springer , 2023 , Article)Climate change may potentially affect the biodiversity and functionality of forests globally. An understanding of the relationship between biodiversity and forest ecosystem functioning can be attained by evaluating variations ... -
Plant traits poorly predict winner and loser shrub species in a warming tundra biome
( Springer , 2023 , Article)Climate change is leading to species redistributions. In the tundra biome, shrubs are generally expanding, but not all tundra shrub species will benefit from warming. Winner and loser species, and the characteristics that ... -
A systematic review on the bioremediation of metal contaminated soils using biochar and slag: current status and future outlook
( Springer , 2023 , Article Review)Heavy metals contaminated soils are posing severe threats to food safety worldwide. Heavy metals absorbed by plant roots from contaminated soils lead to severe plant development issues and a reduction in crop yield and ... -
Climatic drivers and ecological implications of variation in the time interval between leaf-out and flowering
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Leaf-out and flowering in any given species have evolved to occur in a predetermined sequence, with the inter-stage time interval optimized to maximize plant fitness. Although warming-induced advances of both leaf-out and ... -
A quantity-distribution synthesized framework for risk assessment of algal blooms
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Algal blooms threaten water safety and quality, particularly in lakes with vulnerable environment and advanced urbanization. Due to low water exchange rate and multiple human activity influences, algal blooms in inland ... -
Effects of incorporating pine-woodchip biochar with reduced NP fertilizer on calcareous soil characteristics, organic carbon, NPK availability, and maize productivity
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Purpose: One of the successful and sustainable methods to restore low-fertility soils over the past few decades has been the integrated effect of biochar made from various feedstocks and chemical fertilizers. However, the ... -
Spatial heterogeneity analysis of matching degree between endangered plant diversity and ecosystem services in Xishuangbanna
( Springer , 2023 , Article)Biodiversity and ecosystem services (ESs) are closely linked. Human activities have caused critical damage to the habitat and ecosystem function of organisms, leading to decline in global biodiversity and ecosystem services. ... -
Organic materials amendments can improve NPK availability and maize growth by reducing heavy metals stress in calcareous soil
( Springer , 2023 , Article)The deficiency of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in calcareous soils of semi-arid climates is well recognized, and various green-based strategies have been employed to enhance their availability. However, the combined ... -
Dolomite: Perspectives on a perplexing mineral
