DOI: 10.1007/s11104-020-04771-2
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate how efficiently assimilated carbon (C) is incorporated in plant biomass at an intensively managed old permanent grassland, how C is partitioned between shoots and roots and what are the implications… read more here.

Bringing diversity back to agriculture: Smaller fields and non-crop elements enhance biodiversity in intensively managed arable farmlands

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2018.03.001
Abstract: Abstract Agricultural intensification has substantially reduced multi-scale habitat heterogeneity, including increased field size and loss of semi-natural structures, thus resulting in large-scale deterioration of farmland biodiversity. Biodiversity conservation in farmland has therefore become a conservation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.04.024
Abstract: Abstract In the southern U.S. (hereafter, South), institutional forest owners engaged in forest certification programs often retain unharvested or less-intensively harvested vegetation when clearcut harvesting intensively managed pine ( Pinus spp.) forests (IMPFs). As a… read more here.

Floodplains as a source of fine sediment in grazed landscapes: Tracing the source of suspended sediment in the headwaters of an intensively managed agricultural landscape
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geomorphology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2018.01.022
Abstract: Abstract The flux of fine sediment within agricultural watersheds is an important factor determining the environmental quality of streams and rivers. Despite this importance, the contributions of sediment sources to suspended sediment loads within intensively… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/abd2f3
Abstract: The potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) is accumulating in the atmosphere at unprecedented rates largely due to agricultural intensification, and cultivated soils contribute ∼60% of the agricultural flux. Empirical models of N2O fluxes for… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f12030352
Abstract: Intensively managed forest plantations often require fertilization to maintain site fertility and to improve growth and yield over successive rotations. We applied urea-based “enhanced-efficiency fertilizers” (EEF) containing 0.5 atom% 15N at a rate of 224… read more here.
