Effects of the age of raised beds on the physicochemical characteristics of fruit orchard soil in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta
Mohan Lal, Handling Editor
Linking watershed nutrient loading to estuary water quality with generalized additive models
"This is a clear demonstration of how modern statistical analysis improves our understanding of complex ecological systems"
James Latimer, Handling Editor
An investigation into the response of the soil ecological environment to tourist disturbance in Baligou
"Provides an example of the impact of tourism on soil ecological health, raising awareness of this issue."
Douglas Burns, Handling Editor
Prediction of soil moisture using BiGRU-LSTM model with STL decomposition in Qinghai–Tibet Plateau
Timothy Randhir, Handling Editor
European citizens’ stance on limiting energy use for climate change mitigation
"This analysis comes at a particular time during COVID but before the effects of the Russian invasion of Ukraine influence peoples' attitudes. The study therefore provides a valuable point in measuring attitudes to energy use in combatting climate change, which future studies can compare with."
Roger Jones, Handling Editor
The weathering process of carbonatite: weathering time
"The work contains important and substantiated data, more broadly reveals the essence of the process of chemical weathering using the example of carbonatite."
Mykola Karabiniuk, Handling Editor
Chemical weathering rates and controlling mechanisms of glacial catchments within different climate regimes in the Tibetan Plateau
"The Research concerns a relatively narrow scientific field and will be of most interest to specialists in the field of geochemistry and geomorphology."
Mykola Karabiniuk, Handling Editor
Macrophyte communities as bioindicator of stormwater pollution in rivers: a quantitative analysis
"I believe that this paper advances our understanding of the role of macrophytes in environmental assessments."
James Latimer, Handling Editor
Responses of soil organic carbon cycle to land degradation by isotopically tracing in a typical karst area, southwest China
"An interesting study for researchers all over the globe"
Habib Ali, Handling Editor
Effects of defoliation and nitrogen on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and microbial communities in soils of cherry tree orchards
"This study broadens the existing understanding of how defoliation coupled with nitrogen influence the CO2 emissions and microbial diversity in orchard systems."
