In this paper, the second of a series, we apply the models discussed in Part 1 to a significant case study. The nature of the catchment under study, the transport phenomena investigated (i.e. nitrates moving as solutes within runoff waters) and the scales ...
Theoretical advances and short-term experimental studies have furthered our understanding of how ecosystems respond to perturbation. However, there are few wellreplicated experimental studies that allow an assessment of long-term responses. Results from a ...
A simple phenomenological numerical model of a binary granular mixture is developed and investigated numerically. We attempt to model a recently reported experimental system where a horizontally vibrated binary monolayer was found to exhibit a transition f ...
Sunflower can be used for the remediation of metal-contaminated soils. Its high biomass production makes this plant species interesting for phytoextraction and using sunflower oil for a technical purpose may improve the economic balance of phytoremediation ...
For Fe contained in long-range transported acolian dust to act as a micronutrient for oceanic phytoplankton it must be first dissolved or mobilized. We propose that Femobilization can occur in mineral dust from East Asia by the incorporation of SO2 into th ...
TASC (TYRES/TRACKS AND SOIL COMPACTION) is an Excel tool designed foremost as an aid in arable farming. The vulnerability of the soil to the passage of wheels or tracks is assessed after considering soil and load property factors. Danger of soil compaction ...
Within the framework of VISTA project (Vulnerability of Ecosystem Services to Land Use Change in Traditional Agricultural Landscapes), we have studied impacts of land use change on the grasslands of Villar d’Arène (France, 05) and on their services. For th ...
The kinetics of surface processes during the growth of GaN by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) with ammonia as the source of reactive nitrogen is studied theoretically and experimentally. A model of surface processes is developed taking into account specific e ...
Management of favorable conditions for plant growth within partially wet soil volumes under drip irrigation presents a measurement challenge. Typically, soil water status is determined from a single point measurement or several point measurements within th ...
The use of glass fibers in the form of woven cloth (GFC), as a new type of catalytic support, was studied for the reduction of aqueous nitrate solutions using a Pd/Cu–GFC catalyst. The activity (per gram Pd) and selectivity to nitrogen were found to be com ...
