Catchment-scale herbicides transport: Theory and application

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Gianluca Botter

This paper proposes and tests a model which couples the description of hydrologic flow and transport of herbicides at catchment scales. The model accounts for streamflow components' age to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicide flux con ...

Spatio-temporal heterogeneity of riparian soil morphology in a restored floodplain

Claire Guenat, Géraldine Michèle Bullinger, Edward Mitchell, Bertrand Fournier

Floodplains have been intensively altered in industrialized countries, but are now increasingly being restored. It is therefore important to assess the effect of these restoration projects on the aquatic and terrestrial components of ecosystems. However, d ...

A model for global biomass burning in preindustrial time: LPJ-LMfire (v1.0)

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Mirjam Pfeiffer

Fire is the primary disturbance factor in many terrestrial ecosystems. Wildfire alters vegetation structure and composition, affects carbon storage and biogeochemical cycling, and results in the release of climatically relevant trace gases including CO2, C ...

Herbicides export dynamics of a mid-sized lake tributary: lessons from observations and modelling

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Bettina Schaefli, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz

We present here a model which couples the hydrologic component and the transport of herbicides within a catchment. The model used takes into account the age structure of the stream water in order to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicid ...

Climatic modifiers of the response to nitrogen deposition in peat-forming Sphagnum mosses: a meta-analysis

Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza

Peatlands in the northern hemisphere have accumulated more atmospheric carbon (C) during the Holocene than any other terrestrial ecosystem, making peatlands long-term C sinks of global importance. Projected increases in nitrogen (N) deposition and temperat ...

Earthworm communities in alluvial forests: Influence of altitude, vegetation stages and soil parameters

Claire Guenat, Géraldine Michèle Bullinger, Jean-Michel Gobat, Renée-Claire Le Bayon

In many terrestrial ecosystems, soil parameters usually regulate the distribution of earthworm communities.In alluvial ecosystems, few studies have investigated the impact of periodic floods and alluvium deposition on soil fauna. In this context, we assume ...

Holocene carbon emissions as a result of anthropogenic land cover change

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Kristen Marie Krumhardt

Humans have altered the Earth’s land surface since the Paleolithic mainly by clearing woody vegetation first to improve hunting and gathering opportunities, and later to provide agricultural cropland. In the Holocene, agriculture was established on nearly ...

Using Plants to Remove Foreign Compounds from Contaminated Water and Soil

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel

Depending on the physico-chemical properties of the organic pollutant to be removed or detoxified, as well as on the specific plant physiology and biochemistry, different phytotreatments are available to decontaminate water and soils. For example, aquatic ...
