Estimating aboveground woody biomass change in Kalahari woodland: combining field, radar, and optical data sets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantified AGB associated with the different vegetation change processes over an 8-year period, for a region of Kalahari woodland savannah in northern Namibia.
The invasive alien plant, Impatiens glandulifera (Himalayan Balsam), and increased soil erosion: causation or association? Case studies from a river system in Switzerland and the UK
TL;DR: A monitoring investigation along the River Ibach, northwest Switzerland over the winter 2012/2013, found that riparian areas recently supporting the invasive plant Himalayan Balsam (HB) recorded significantly higher erosion rates than nearby uninvaded areas as discussed by the authors.
The role of pastoralism in regulating ecosystem services
TL;DR: Rather than abandoning pastoralism, the revitalisation of traditional practices and indigenous knowledge is vital to secure sustainable livelihoods for millions of pastoralists and to maintain rangeland biodiversity and ecosystem services.
Soil chemical properties and microbial biomass after 16 years of no-tillage farming on the Loess Plateau, China
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper compared the long-term effects of notillage with straw cover (NTSC) and traditional TTSR in a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) monoculture.
Interrill erosion of carbon and phosphorus from conventionally and organically farmed Devon silt soils
TL;DR: The role of interrill processes for nutrient cycling and the global carbon cycle requires close attention as mentioned in this paper, which leads to the enrichment of clay, phosphorous (P) and carbon (C).
