Over the last 50\uffc2\uffa0years, the most increase in cultivated land area globally has been due to a doubling of irrigated land. Long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term agronomic management impacts on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, soil greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and global warming potential (GWP) in irrigated systems, however, remain relatively unknown. Here, residue and tillage management effects were quantified by measuring soil nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) fluxes and SOC changes (\uffce\uff94SOC) at a long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term, irrigated continuous corn (Zea mays L.) system in eastern Nebraska, United States. Management treatments began in 2002, and measured treatments included no or high stover removal (0 or 6.8\uffc2\uffa0Mg\uffc2\uffa0DM\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921\uffc2\uffa0yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921, respectively) under no\uffe2\uff80\uff90till (NT) or conventional disk tillage (CT) with full irrigation (n\uffc2\uffa0=\uffc2\uffa04). Soil N2O and CH4 fluxes were measured for five crop\uffe2\uff80\uff90years (2011\uffe2\uff80\uff932015), and \uffce\uff94SOC was determined on an equivalent mass basis to ~30\uffc2\uffa0cm soil depth. Both area\uffe2\uff80\uff90 and yield\uffe2\uff80\uff90scaled soil N2O emissions were greater with stover retention compared to removal and for CT compared to NT, with no interaction between stover and tillage practices. Methane comprised <1% of total emissions, with NT being CH4 neutral and CT a CH4 source. Surface SOC decreased with stover removal and with CT after 14\uffc2\uffa0years of management. When \uffce\uff94SOC, soil GHG emissions, and agronomic energy usage were used to calculate system GWP, all management systems were net GHG sources. Conservation practices (NT, stover retention) each decreased system GWP compared to conventional practices (CT, stover removal), but pairing conservation practices conferred no additional mitigation benefit. Although cropping system, management equipment/timing/history, soil type, location, weather, and the depth to which \uffce\uff94SOC is measured affect the GWP outcomes of irrigated systems at large, this long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term irrigated study provides valuable empirical evidence of how management decisions can impact soil GHG emissions and surface SOC stocks.

There are some three billion people in these regions, however, who lack consistent access to energy and rely on traditional solid fuels such as firewood, cattle manure, and crop residues for meeting cooking and heating needs. Excessive use of such highly polluting resources creates serious environmental, social and public health issues. In this context, household digesters (which convert readily available feedstocks such as cattle manure, human excreta, and crop residues into biogas) have the potential to play a significant role in supplying methane as a clean, renewable energy resource for remote geographies. In addition to bioenergy production, the slurry generated from anaerobic digestion is rich in nutrients and can improve the physical, chemical, and biological attributes of soil when applied to agricultural land. This type of approach has the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions while simultaneously improving the quality of life. Despite a long history of research and innovation for the development and optimization of household digesters, little is known and has been reported for the application of these systems in decentralized communities. The primary purpose of this paper seeks to review the dearth of literature pertaining to small-scale anaerobic digesters in remote geographies and in regions where much of the world's population reside.", "keywords": ["2.

Predictive models, specifically machine learning (ML) methods, are one of the tools capable of solving this apparent contradiction as they allow to generalize toxicity patterns across chemicals and species. However, despite the availability of large public toxicity datasets, the data is highly sparse, complicating model development. The aim of this study is to provide insights into how ML can predict toxicity using a large but sparse dataset. We developed models to predict LC50-values, based on experimental LC50-data covering 2431 organic chemicals and 1506 aquatic species from the ECOTOX-database. Several well-known ML techniques were evaluated and a new ML model was developed, inspired by recommender systems. This new model involves a simple linear model that learns low-rank interactions between species and chemicals using factorization machines. We evaluated the predictive performances of the developed models based on two validation settings: 1) predicting unseen chemical-species pairs, and 2) predicting unseen chemicals. The results of this study show that ML models can accurately predict LC50-values in both validation settings. Moreover, we show that the novel factorization machine approach can match well-tuned, complex, ML approaches.", "keywords": ["modelling", "Machine Learning", "machine learning", "Machine learning", "Animals", "Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship", "prediction", "Ecotoxicology", "LC50", "aquatic toxicity", "species sensitivity"]}, "links": [{"href": "https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/1062936X.2023.2254225"}, {"href": "https://doi.org/10.1080/1062936x.2023.2254225"}, {"rel": "related", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main/items/SAR%20and%20QSAR%20in%20Environmental%20Research", "name": "related record", "description": "related record", "type": "application/json"}, {"rel": "self", "type": "application/geo+json", "title": "10.1080/1062936x.2023.2254225", "name": "item", "description": "10.1080/1062936x.2023.2254225", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main/items/10.1080/1062936x.2023.2254225"}, {"rel": "collection", "type": "application/json", "title": "Collection", "name": "collection", "description": "Collection", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main"}], "time": {"date": "2023-09-06T00:00:00Z"}}, {"id": "10.1111/gcb.14535", "type": "Feature", "geometry": null, "properties": {"updated": "2026-04-03T16:19:56Z", "type": "Journal Article", "created": "2019-01-03", "title": "Organic amendment additions to rangelands: A meta-analysis of multiple ecosystem outcomes", "description": "AbstractInterest in land application of organic amendments\uffe2\uff80\uff94such as biosolids, composts, and manures\uffe2\uff80\uff94is growing due to their potential to increase soil carbon and help mitigate climate change, as well as to support soil health and regenerative agriculture. While organic amendments are predominantly applied to croplands, their application is increasingly proposed on relatively arid rangelands that do not typically receive fertilizers or other inputs, creating unique concerns for outcomes such as native plant diversity and water quality. To maximize environmental benefits and minimize potential harms, we must understand how soil, water, and plant communities respond to particular amendments and site conditions. We conducted a global meta\uffe2\uff80\uff90analysis of 92 studies in which organic amendments had been added to arid, semiarid, or Mediterranean rangelands. We found that organic amendments, on average, provide some environmental benefits (increased soil carbon, soil water holding capacity, aboveground net primary productivity, and plant tissue nitrogen; decreased runoff quantity), as well as some environmental harms (increased concentrations of soil lead, runoff nitrate, and runoff phosphorus; increased soil CO2emissions). Published data were inadequate to fully assess impacts to native plant communities.

However, because C and nitrogen (N) biogeochemical cycles are closely coupled, straw return may also affect soil reactive N (Nr) losses, but these effects remain uncertain, especially in terms of the interactions between soil C sequestration and Nr losses under straw addition. Here, we conducted a global meta\uffe2\uff80\uff90analysis using 363 publications to assess the overall effects of straw return on soil Nr losses, C sequestration and crop productivity in agroecosystems. Our results show that on average, compared to mineral N fertilization, straw return with same amount of mineral N fertilizer significantly increased soil organic C (SOC) content (14.9%), crop yield (5.1%), and crop N uptake (10.9%). Moreover, Nr losses in the form of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from rice paddies (17.3%), N leaching (8.7%), and runoff (25.6%) were significantly reduced, mainly due to enhanced microbial N immobilization. However, N2O emissions from upland fields (21.5%) and ammonia (NH3) emissions (17.0%) significantly increased following straw return, mainly due to the stimulation of nitrification/denitrification and soil urease activity. The increase in NH3 and N2O emissions was significantly and negatively correlated with straw C/N ratio and soil clay content. Regarding the interactions between C sequestration and Nr losses, the increase in SOC content following straw return was significantly and positively correlated with the decrease in N leaching and runoff. However, at a global scale, straw return increased net Nr losses from both rice and upland fields due to a greater stimulation of NH3 emissions than the reduction in N leaching and runoff. The trade\uffe2\uff80\uff90offs between increased net Nr losses and soil C sequestration highlight the importance of reasonably managing straw return to soils to limit NH3 emissions without decreasing associated C sequestration potential.

Three production inputs, fuel, farm machinery and agrochemicals (fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides) are considered. The study extends beyond the farm gate to include packing and transportation and the time period is 30 years.

Elevated CO2 resulted in larger fresh mass, dry mass, leaf area and leaf thickness in two-year old needles, but had no effect on one-year old and current needles. Tree height, basal diameter and biomass production also increased, regardless of N supply. In trees without added N, elevated CO2 resulted in higher root-to-shoot and absorbing roots-to-stump ratios. Regardless of N supply, trees grown in elevated CO2 had lower photosynthetic rates on a leaf area basis. Photosynthesis reduction was accompanied by a decline in Rubisco activity and leaf N concentration. Under elevated CO2, added N elevated photosynthesis and Rubisco activity, suggesting a dependence on N availability of the photosynthetic respons...", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "15.

The concept is applied to a representative two-span highway bridge, initially designed on conventional seismic isolation (CSI) bearings. An optimization process is developed and executed to design the EKDs, underscoring the importance of accounting for seismic motion variability. Compared to CSI, the incorporation of EKDs leads to a 40% to 70% reduction in deck drifts. In contrast to the CSI bridge, which may sustain excessive bearing shear strains when subjected to the most adverse seismic motions within the examined set, the bearings of the EKD bridge never exceed the 200% threshold. Through the use of nonlinear 3D time-history analyses, it is demonstrated that the nonlinearity of the EKD elements may result in residual deck drifts. The nonlinear EKDs exhibit a variation in maximum drifts and accelerations on the order of\u2009\u00b120% compared to the preliminary (linear elastic) design for the examined set of spectrum-compatible motions. The increased accelerations result from the stiffening of the negative stiffness elements (NSEs), being more pronounced for seismic motions that entail large displacement demands. With the aid of a fully nonlinear 3D model of the entire soil \u2013 foundation \u2013 structure system, the effects of soil-structure interaction (SSI) are explored and shown to significantly influence the seismic response of the system. Deck collision with the abutments restricts the movement of the deck and pier; however, it compromises the performance of the EKDs and leads to a substantial increase in deck accelerations. Overall, EKDs may facilitate a more economical design and enhanced seismic performance, particularly for displacement-sensitive structures like rail bridges.", "keywords": ["negative stiffness", "bridges", "Seismic isolation; bridges; KDamper; negative stiffness; earthquakes; vibration control", "KDamper", "vibration control", "Seismic isolation", "earthquakes"]}, "links": [{"href": "https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/13632469.2023.2250463"}, {"href": "https://doi.org/10.1080/13632469.2023.2250463"}, {"rel": "related", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main/items/Journal%20of%20Earthquake%20Engineering", "name": "related record", "description": "related record", "type": "application/json"}, {"rel": "self", "type": "application/geo+json", "title": "10.1080/13632469.2023.2250463", "name": "item", "description": "10.1080/13632469.2023.2250463", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main/items/10.1080/13632469.2023.2250463"}, {"rel": "collection", "type": "application/json", "title": "Collection", "name": "collection", "description": "Collection", "href": "https://repository.soilwise-he.eu/cat/collections/metadata:main"}], "time": {"date": "2023-09-05T00:00:00Z"}}, {"id": "10.1080/14735903.2013.859836", "type": "Feature", "geometry": null, "properties": {"updated": "2026-04-03T16:19:23Z", "type": "Journal Article", "created": "2013-11-19", "title": "Intensification Of Conservation Agriculture Systems For Increased Livestock Feed And Maize Production In Zimbabwe", "description": "Livestock and crops are key components of mixed farming systems and are a source of household food and income.

This paper evaluates the economic, environmental and social sustainability impacts of making the potentially available timber available with current and technologically improved value chains. This paper focuses on increasing the biomass feedstock supply for energy generation. Quantified impact assessments show which improvements - in terms of costs, employment, fuel and energy use, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions - can be expected if better mechanized machines are provided. Using three different methods - Sustainability Impacts Assessment (SIA), Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), and Emission Saving Criteria (ESC) - we calculated current and innovative machine solutions in terms of fuel use, energy use, and greenhouse gas emissions, to quantify the impact of the technology choice and also the effect of the choice of assessment method. Absolute stand-alone values can be misleading in analyses, and the use of different impact calculation approaches in parallel is clarifying the limits of using LCA-based approaches.

Although these results are well documented in moist tussock and wet sedge tundra, dry heath tundra has been less studied. In an Alaskan dry heath arctic tundra, we conducted a biomass harvest of plants that received additional nitrogen (N, 10 g m -2 yr-1) and/or phosphorus (P, 5 g m-2 yr-1) or reduced light (50% of ambient) for 8 yr. We expected responses to be similar to those of other arctic tundra communities with increased biomass resulting from added nutrients and species responding individualistically to generate the community-level response. However, total vascular biomass did not change in the dry heath tundra in response to any treatment, although individual species and functional group biomass differed from controls. Aboveground productivity, estimated using new apical growth, significantly increased in the N and N+P plots caused by significantly greater abundance of a tussock-forming grass, Hierochloe alpina. The lowest species richness was recorded in the N alone plots, where a deciduous shrub, Betula nana, had its greatest biomass, and richness also declined in N+P plots. Plots that received P alone had similar biomass and species richness to controls, although shrubs decreased in abundance. The shade treatment caused minor biomass differences, marginally less new apical growth, and slightly lower species richness compared to control plots. These results were similar to several ongoing studies in Alaskan moist tussock and wet sedge tundras where above-ground productivity increased in response to added N and/or P but biomass response lagged. This shift in the dry heath tundra from an evergreen shrub to a grass dominated system in the N and N+P plots may cause profound ecosystem function changes as woody biomass capable of long-term carbon storage is lost.", "keywords": ["580", "0106 biological sciences", "570", "14.
