Anthropogenic warming is anticipated to increase moisture drought in the future. However, projections are accompanied by large uncertainty due to varying estimates of future warming. Here, using an ensemble of hydrological and land-surface models, forced with bias-corrected downscaled general circulation model output, we estimate the ...

At each forest plot, we used a auger to sample the profile to a depth of 1 m, and divided it into five layers: 0–10 cm, 10–20 cm, 20–30 cm, 30–50 cm, and 50–100 cm. ...

Physical, biological, and chemical processes in the affect the balance in organic carbon compounds, and if they are released to the atmosphere as CO 2, or stored in the . This same process occurs with Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and all other materials. Water Filtration. Without and particles, water would be running on bare rocks!

In total there are 6 categories: 0 - no . This represents water bodies, glaciers and rock outcrops. 1 - low susceptibility to compaction. 2. - medium susceptibility to compaction. 3. - high susceptibility to compaction. 4. - very high susceptibility to compaction. 9. - no evaluation possible.

The regional maps were developed based on the regional surveys and illustrate the bias existing in data for different regions. The map for the Rostov region was digitized by the Dokuchaev Institute based on the 1:300,000 map developed by Southern state design Institute for land management of the USSR in 1985.

Using model simulation to evaluate loss potential in diversified agricultural landscapes. Tobias Koch, Detlef Deumlich, Peter Chifflard, Kerstin Panten, Kathrin Grahmann. , e13332. First Published: 09 December 2022. Abstract.

The global organic carbon (SOC) stocks to 2 m of depth are estimated at approximately 2400 Gt C 6, which is three times the amount of carbon in the atmosphere 7. Small changes in SOC ...

Total carbon pools for the entire land area of the world, excluding carbon held in the litter layer and charcoal, amounts to 2157–2293 Pg of C in the upper 100¿cm. organic carbon is estimated to be 684–724 Pg of C in the upper 30¿cm, 1462–1548 Pg of C in the upper 100¿cm, and 2376–2456 Pg of C in the upper 200¿cm.

Results indicate increase in their spatial extend (between 23% and 46%) and their duration (between 16% and 48%) depending on the period and the scenario. Additional analysis was performed for the exceptionally wide-area (over 10 6 km 2) severe and extreme moisture drought events that are expected to drastically increase comparing to the ...

The negative impacts of sealing are numerous, from withdrawing fertile from biomass production to modifying the microclimate and decreasing biodiversity. Many of the processes are interrelated and propagate further undesirable consequences from local to global levels. Three issues are especially important from the viewpoint of multiscale ecological cycles and consequent environmental ...

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 ...

The EU Observatory (EUSO) organised the Erosion workshop in June 2023. •. The workshop was successful as attended by 333 participants and addressed 8 thematic areas. •. We address the main developments of the EU policies in relation to under the Green Deal. •. The editorial includes a summary of 9 published manuscripts.

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 ...
