Land-use change (LUC) can impact soil quality. In semi-arid areas of Brazil, impacts LUC need to be understood for better management. This study evaluated the on organic carbon (SOC), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) distributions through profile stocks a Haplic-Cambisol in Brazilian Semi-arid region. Three land-use systems (LUS) were investigated: agricultural management (30 years), regenerati...

The use of nanostructured materials is increasingly widespread thanks to their particular properties that can improve the performance devices in various scientific applications. One them architecture perovskite solar cells characterized by high photoconversion efficiency values make able compete with silicon cells. In this framework, we deposited TiO2 sponges reactive sputtering based on a graz...

Abstract Purpose Owing to their topographic location and nutrient rich soils, riparian forests are often converted pastures for grazing. In recent decades, remnant cleared grazing have been restored with native species. The impacts of such land-use changes on soil fungal communities unclear, despite the central roles that fungi play in key ecosystem processes. We investigated how taxonomic func...

grazing management plays an important role in the continuous and economicutilization of pastures. proper grazing management is a main factor for the accumulation ofplant litter which reduces soil erosion and increase the soil permeability to keep moremoisture in the soil. in current study, the effect of three different grazing intensities (low,moderate and high) along with the grazing gradient ...

Gustafson, T., 2006. Bird communities and vegetation on Swedish wet meadows – importance of management regimes and landscape composition. Doctor's dissertation. Wet meadows in Sweden currently depend on management by grazing to maintain habitats for various breeding and migrating birds. However, due to ceased cattle farming management by mowing could be an option for restoration and conservatio...

The increase in livestock grazing African drylands such as miombo woodlands threatens land productivity and ecosystem functioning. Trees have positive effects on soil hydraulic properties, but few studies looked at intensity hydrological functioning different uses. Therefore, we conducted a biophysical survey Morogoro Rural District, Tanzania, where identified four main uses cover types, that i...
