Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

Charlotte Grossiord, Helena Vallicrosa Pou

The intensification of climate change-induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die-offs worldwide, increasingly driven by compound droughts. In this review, we examine the impacts of emerging compound droughts, which involve co-occurring st ...

Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery

Harm-Anton Klok, Nicola Carrara

The current use of fertilizers is inefficient and not sustainable. The majority of the fertilizer applied does not reach the targeted crop but is lost in the water bodies and into the atmosphere, with harmful impact on the environment. To enhance the effic ...

Reduction of riverbed clogging related to sediment flushing

Giovanni De Cesare, Romain Maxime Dubuis

The ecological effects of dams on sediment and river flow have been subject to an increasing attention, leading to the implementation of mitigation measures such as environmental flow release and sediment replenishment. However, fine sediment dynamics have ...

Consider the Anoxic Microsite: Acknowledging and Appreciating Spatiotemporal Redox Heterogeneity in Soils and Sediments

Meret Aeppli

Reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions underlie essentially all biogeochemical cycles. Like most soil properties and processes, redox is spatiotemporally heterogeneous. However, unlike other soil features, redox heterogeneity has yet to be incorporated into ...

Influence of the shear stress on fine sediment exchanges with the substrate using UVP measurements

Giovanni De Cesare, Romain Maxime Dubuis

The dynamic of fine sediment in rivers is closely related to the interactions between fine particles, the riverbed and the flow conditions. The accumulation of fine sediment in the riverbed reduces vertical water exchanges and can have detrimental effects ...

Evaluation of the role of superoxide radical as chain carrier for the formation of hydroxyl radical during ozonation

Gang Yu, Urs von Gunten

Superoxide radicals (O-2(center dot-)) have been suggested as an important chain carrier in the radical chain reaction that promotes ozone (O-3) decomposition to hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) during ozonation. However, due to the difficulty in meas ...

Near-bed stratification controls bottom hypoxia in ice-covered alpine lakes

Damien Bouffard, Pascal Perolo, Tomy Doda, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Janine Rüegg, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

In ice-covered lakes, near-bottom oxygen concentration decreases for most of the wintertime, sometimes down to the point that bottom waters become hypoxic. Studies insofar have reached divergent conclusions on whether climate change limits or reinforces th ...

Experimental characterization of root-reinforced riparian sediment deposits in a restored and widened river course

Giovanni De Cesare, Paolo Perona

The Arbogne River is located mainly in the Swiss canton of Fribourg. The River was meandering through the plane at a very low gradient and several exceptional historic floods with large sediment accumulation are mentioned. After important river training wo ...

Compressed Distributed Regression over Adaptive Networks

Ali H. Sayed

We examine the learning performance achievable by a network of agents that solve a distributed regression problem using the recently proposed ACTC (Adapt-Compress-Then-Combine) diffusion strategy. The agents operate under communication constraints: they ar ...

Deforestation-free land-use change and organic matter-centered management improve the C footprint of oil palm expansion

Alexandre Buttler

In recent decades, mounting evidence has indicated that the expansion of oil palm (OP) plantations at the expense of tropical forest has had a far pernicious effect on ecosystem aspects. While various deforestation-free strategies have been proposed to enh ...

Benthic Biofilms in Glacier-Fed Streams from Scandinavia to the Himalayas Host Distinct Bacterial Communities Compared with the Streamwater

Leïla Ezzat, Vincent Henri De Staercke, Tom Ian Battin, Paraskevi Pramateftaki, Hannes Markus Peter, Emmy Marie Oppliger, Jade Brandani, Matteo Tolosano, Michail Styllas, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Massimo Bourquin, Martina Andrea Schön, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Virginia Tadei

Microbial life in glacier-fed streams (GFSs) is dominated by benthic biofilms which fulfill critical ecosystem processes. However, it remains unclear how the bacterial communities of these biofilms assemble in stream ecosystems characterized by rapid turno ...

Life cycle environmental assessment of retaining walls in unsaturated soils

Alessio Ferrari, Gianluca Speranza

Retaining structures above groundwater level support soils that are usually in a state of partial saturation and subject to the actions of atmospheric agents. The current design approach considers the possible extremes of soil conditions - either totally d ...

Secondary ice production processes in wintertime alpine mixed-phase clouds

Alexis Berne, Athanasios Nenes, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Paraskevi Georgakaki

Observations of orographic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) have long shown that measured ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) can exceed the concentration of ice nucleating particles by orders of magnitude. Additionally, model simulations of alpine clouds a ...
