Abstract Permafrost soils in the northern hemisphere are known to harbor large amounts of soil organic matter (SOM). Global climate warming endangers this stable carbon (SOC) pool by triggering permafrost thaw and deepening active layer, while at same time progressing formation. But depending, e.g., on ice content or drainage, conditions degraded can range from water-saturated/anoxic dry/oxic, with concomitant shifts SOM stabilizing mechanisms. In field study Interior Alaska, we investigated...
Crop residue and animal manure as a soil amendment have been recognized feasible agricultural practice owing to its contribution in improving the fertility (SF). The primary advantages of this are determined by activities microorganisms. However, goat (M), sugarcane straw (S), plus (MS) amendments influence bacteria, their activities, SF clay-loam remains undefinable. Therefore, study distinguished efficacy M, MS, S on enzyme availability nutrients, including various bacterial populations...
Floods are brutal, catastrophic natural hazards which affect most human beings in terms of economy and life loss, especially the large river basins worldwide. The Indus River basin is considered as one world’s basins, comprising several major tributaries, has experienced severe floods its history. There currently no proper early flood warning system for can help administrative authorities cope with such hazards. Hence, it necessary to develop an by integrating a hydrodynamic model, situ...
The methane-cycling microbiomes in Arctic permafrost-affected soils play crucial roles the production and consumption of this important greenhouse gas. However, little is known about distributions methanogens methanotrophs across regional scale along vertical soil profile, as well their responses to widespread permafrost thaw. Using a unique sample set from nine different locations pan-Arctic, we identified methanogen methanotroph phylotypes 729 datasets 16S rRNA gene amplicons.In 621...
The ongoing global warming and changing patterns of precipitation have significant implications for crop yields. Process-based models are the most commonly used method to assess impacts projected climate changes on In this study, crop-environment resource synthesis (CERES)-Maize 4.6.7 model was project maize yield in Shaanxi Province China over future periods. context, downscaled ensemble projections 17 general circulation (GCMs) under four representative concentration pathways (RCP 2.6, RCP...
Maize-soybean intercropping is practiced worldwide because of some the anticipated advantages such as high crop yield and better utilization resources (i.e., water, light, nutrients land). However, shade maize has a detrimental effect on growth soybean under maize-soybean system. Hence, this experiment was conducted to improve tolerance crops with optimal nitrogen (N) fertilization combined foliar application iron (Fe) molybdenum (Mo). The treatments comprised five (5) practices: without...
The initiation of sexual development in the important edible and medicinal mushroom Flammulina velutipes is controlled by special genes at two different, independent, mating type (MAT) loci: HD PR. We expanded our understanding F. system analyzing MAT loci from a series strains. locus houses homeodomain (Hd genes) on separated locations: sublocus HD-a HD-b. HD-b subloci contained strain-specific Hd1/Hd2 gene pairs, crosses between strains with different indicated role mating. function...
The frozen water reserves on the Earth are not only very dynamic in their nature, but also have significant effects hydrological response of complex and river basins. Indus basin is one most basins world receives its share from Asian Water Tower (Himalayas). In such a huge with high-altitude mountains, regular quantification snow cover great challenge to researchers for management downstream ecosystems. this study, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) daily (MOD09GA) 8-day...
Water scarcity constrains global cotton production. However, partial root-zone drying (PRD) and mulching can be used as good techniques to save water enhance crop production, especially in arid regions. This study aimed evaluate the effects of for conservation an environment under PRD further assess osmotic adjustment enzymatic activities sustainable The was carried out 2 years field conditions using mulches (NM = no mulch, BPM black plastic mulch at 32 kg ha-1, WSM wheat straw 3 tons CSM...
Forests across the world are considered to be a huge socio-economic and environmental benefit host adjacent communities. This study focuses on assessing impacts of fuelwood timber consumption livelihood households in Baltistan region Pakistan. Primary secondary sources data were employed for study. The primary involved use questionnaire survey interview while documented information textbooks internet materials. revealed that 82% people within agricultural activities, 71% depended extraction...
Instrumental climatological records such as weather stations data of northern areas Pakistan are not sufficient to assess the forest extreme events reliably. To understand past climatic variability, tree ring width based reconstruction is best alternative trace climate variability that goes back in time. Quercus Incana most sensitive species drought and variation Pakistan. However, very little research quantifies rate ongoing changes. A total 65 cores were collected from two sites radial...
Realising the customers’ demands for green products, technology innovation (GTI) serves as way businesses to grow, seek continued profit, and attain a competitive edge. Based on paper-based survey of 337 respondents from Chinese hi-tech companies, this study utilised PROCESS Macro analyse impact transformational leadership (GTL) style GTI through capability (GIC). Also, examined adjustment effect market orientation (GMO). The findings indicated statistically significant favorable...
Tea is an economic shrubby plant in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. To obtain high yield tea cultivation, chemical fertilizer application rates have generally been used. However, a large quantity long-term continuously ratooned monoculture orchard can inevitably lead to soil acidification decline fertility. Therefore, restoration fertility sustainable development planting by organic ways are critical for industry. In this study, field trials were conducted that was...
The present study considers evaporative cooling and desiccant unit-based air-conditioning (AC) options for livestock AC application. In this regard, proposed systems are investigated by means of experiments thermodynamic investigations. Air-conditioning requirements animals theoretically temperature-humidity index (THI) is estimated. A lab-scale heat mass exchanger based on the Maisotsenko-cycle conception (MEC) set up its performance evaluated at different ambient air conditions. addition,...
Majority of Pakistani soils are deficient in phosphorus. Phosphorus is usually applied form synthetic fertilizer. However integrated use P from and organic sources can be more profitable beneficial on sustainable basis. Field trials were conducted at research farm University Poonch, Rawalakot, AJK, Pakistan for two consecutive years to check the comparative effects fertilizer manures alone combinations phosphorus efficiency (PUE), wheat yield components. Shafaq-06 cultivar was used as test...
Water-related soil erosion is a major environmental concern for catchments with barren topography in arid and semi-arid regions. With the growing interest irrigation infrastructure development regions, current study investigates runoff sediment yield Gomal River catchment, Pakistan. Data from precipitation gauge gridded products (i.e., GPCC, CFSR, TRMM) were used as input SWAT model to simulate yield. TRMM shows good agreement data of (≈1%) during period, i.e., 2004–2009. However,...
