Wetland area and condition are declining globally despite their importance to climate
change mitigation and biodiversity. Introduced ungulate species are contributing to the …

The solid-liquid separation is an indispensable and primary link in the process of sludge
treatment and disposal. The past research was focused primarily on the technique …

The traditional view of Na+ as harmful and Ca 2+ as beneficial doesn't always apply in multi-
cationic soil solutions. Initially, adding Ca 2+ promotes Na+ leaching, reducing salinity, but …

In arid ecosystems, lack of vegetation and nutrients can negatively impact soil carbon (C)
content. In the current study, our goals were to assess soil C stocks to a depth of 50 cm in an …

Salt marshes provide valuable ecosystem services including coastal protection by reducing
wave loading on dikes and seawalls. If the topsoil is erosion resistant to fast‐flowing water, it …

Healthy coastal sabkhas (sabkha is an Arabic term for a salt flat) offer plenty of ecosystem
services including climate change mitigation. However, fewer research studies were …

Saltmarshes are known for their ability to act as effective sinks of organic carbon (OC) and
their protection and restoration could potentially slow down the pace of global warming …

A global concern for coastal ecosystems is the predicted rise in sea-level for which salt
marshes must keep pace by increasing in surface elevation sufficiently. Variables that …

Coastal mangrove ecosystems have been degraded due to changes in land use and
grazing. Here, we assess the differences in population characteristics and sediment organic …

As a completed decomposed product of granite rock, the granite residual soil widely
distributes in South China with a special soil structure that can be easily damaged under …
