Regenerative agriculture – EASAC

Agricultural production systems are currently severely threatening climate stability and ecosystem resilience and constitute a large driver of environmental degradation. For example, there are severe impacts through the loss of species biodiversity and ecosystem services such as pollination, increase in erosion, declines in fertility ...

Past land use and erosion processes in central

The most remarkable phase of erosion occurred in the first half of 14th century, at the beginning of the Little Ice Age. The second well-known intense erosion phase occurred in the mid-18th to early 19th century—at the end of the Little Ice Age. Historical records document extreme precipitation events during these two phases ...

Three‐dimensional pore structure and carbon distribution of …

There has been little research, however, on the effects of biochar on three-dimensional (3-D) structure and carbon distribution within aggregates. To investigate the effects we amended two types (Ultisol and Vertisol) with three types of biochar (at the rate of 40 g biochar kg −1 ). We separated the macroaggregates (5–7 cm in ...
