Properly managing forests and preventing floods requires a paradigm shift, a Canadian study explains. That means replacing the deterministic approach with probability analysis and take all factors into account
Without climate change, the Amazon Basin would not have experienced the exceptional agricultural drought that has affected the area around the region’s main river, an international study finds
As a tributary of the Congo River, the Ruki provides one-fifth of the dissolved carbon in the region’s main waterway. A figure that suggests a lower sequestration capacity by the local forest, says a research
According to four scientists at Leiden University, current assessments of nanopesticides do not take into account some problems related to their use
A study by the University of Michigan reveals the link between agricultural yield and soil quality. Using a new metric, key information can be obtained to plan agricultural strategies while reducing environmental impact
In the forest area spanning the southeastern region of Brazil, two-thirds of all species and more than four-fifths of endemic ones are threatened with extinction
Agriculture developed in urban spaces can have six times the climate impact of traditional agriculture, explains a University of Michigan study. Some tricks, however, make it possible to solve the problem
In tropical forests, rising temperatures promote the spread of lianas that smother trees by limiting their growth, an Australian study says. With obvious consequences for carbon sequestration
Some features promote the resilience of certain species to the effects of deforestation, a Peking University study has found. But biodiversity conservation is also affected by local agricultural history
It’s beneath our feet but we never think about its value. We tread on it, we mistreat it, but a healthy, fertile soil means life. It’s time to take care of the soil and each one of us can and must make a difference.
