Tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) is a globally important crop and is unusual because it both requires and acidifies the soil in which it grows. In spite of the low pH, high nitrate () accumulates in tea soils, resulting in a great potential for diffuse pollution.
Due to the lengthy historic land use by humans and the climate change characterized by warming and drying, the Loess Plateau has been plagued by ecosystem degradation for a long time.
An effective response to future risk within socio-ecosystems will require the retention of local diversity, not just in more vulnerable communities on the margins but also in regions vital to industrialised countries.
The landscape of many historic cities and the character of their shallow subsurface environments are defined by a legacy of interaction between anthropogenic and geological processes.
We address the possible outcomes of combining environmental taxes and environmental planning in managing non-renewable resources such as aggregates.
In South Patagonia, Argentina, sweet cherry is the main fruit-tree crop grown for export, resulting in a highly seasonal labour demand. Managers of deciduous perennial fruit orchards must consider both biological and economic relationships in selecting crop species and orchard design.
This study combines statistical methods and a Markov model to analyze interregional differences in land use in Beijing since 2003 and to predict land use changes for 2015 and 2019.
In order to identify the areas in the Xilingele grassland which are sensitive to wind erosion, a computational fluid dynamics model (CFD-WEM) was used to simulate the wind fields over a region of 37km2 which contains different topography and land use types.
