Carbon cycling is a highly complex yet critical process, especially in silvopastures, which have multiple pools with the ability to store large amounts of C. However, it largely unknown how site-specific variables, including edaphic factors, vegetation type, topography, and management, affect soil CO2 flux silvopastures. Therefore, this study aimed evaluate fluxes silvopastoral system as affect...

Cyclic nucleotides modulate the activity of diverse types of excitable cells (Twarog & Muneoka, 1973; Berridge, 1975; Triestman & Levitan, 1976; Greengard, 1980; Bernier, Castellucci, Kandel & Schwartz, 1982; Gillette, Gillette & Davis, 1982£; Evans, 1984). In the carnivorous gastropod Pleurobranchaea, it would appear that cAMP modulation of a single pair of neurones effects the expression of a...

Understanding spatial and temporal dynamics of soil water within fields is critical for effective variable rate irrigation (VRI) management. The objectives this study were to develop VRI zones, manage rates examine differences in volumetric content (VWC) from events via sensors across zones. Five zones delineated after two years (2016 2017) yield evapotranspiration (ET) data collection. Soil pl...

Abstract A framework for a IoT-based local landslide early warning system (Lo-LEWS) has been proposed. Monitoring, modelling, forecasting and represent the main phases of proposed framework. In this study, first two have applied to capture hydrological behaviour natural unsaturated slope located adjacent railway track in Eastern Norway. The is monitored stability kept under frequent observation...

Accurate description of surface soil moisture (SSM) in vegetation-covered areas is great significance to water resource management and drought monitoring. To remove the effect vegetation on SSM estimation, index obtained from Sentinel-2 (S2) was applied for content (VWC) estimation. The VWC model substituted into cloud (WCM), thus, estimation developed based WCM. methodology tested at Daxing, B...

Abstract Rainfall interception process is an important part of the biohydrological cycle, in which vegetation plays role by regulating amount and dynamics rainfall reaching ground. In this paper, event-based analysis performed to discuss influence on dynamic temporal response soil volumetric water content (VWC) upper layer during events. More specifically, six events that occurred between 19 No...

Water retention curves (WRCs) and hydraulic conductivity functions (HCFs) are critical soil-specific characteristics necessary for modeling the movement of water in soils using Richardson-Richards equation (RRE). Well-established laboratory measurement methods WRCs HCFs not usually suitable simulating field-scale soil moisture dynamics because scale mismatch. Hence, inverse solution RRE must be...

We monitored soil respiration (Rs), soil temperature (T) and volumetric water content (VWC%) over four years in one typical conventional and four alternative cropping systems to understand Rs in different cropping systems with their respective management practices and environmental conditions. The control was conventional double-cropping system (winter wheat and summer maize in one year--Con.W/...

A wetting soil water characteristic curve (SWCC w ) is necessary for understanding and interpreting the re-distribution of infiltrated rainwater, percolation rate, contaminant transport. Direct determination SWCC tedious needs destructive sampling invasive sensor installation. This study demonstrates an indirect method determining based on infiltration measurements using a mini disc infiltromet...

Agricultural production is a major source of carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) globally. The effects conservation practices on soil CO2 N2O emissions remain high degree uncertainty. In this study, under different residue tillage in an irrigated, continuous corn system, were investigated using the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM2). Combinations no/high stover removal (NR HR, resp...
