Understanding topography effects on soil properties is vital to modelling landscape
hydrology and establishing sustainable on-field management practices. This research …

Sustainable food production requires approaches that reconcile agricultural production with
the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, biodiversity and associated …

The effective management of disturbed forests requires adequate knowledge of forest
dynamics. In this study, we assessed the changes in a managed forest using 18 permanent …

Question Tropical forests are subject to disturbances by logging, gathering of fuelwood, and
fires. Can degradation trajectories (ie cumulative disturbances events over a period of timer) …

This paper analyzes the role of the main spatial determinants of land use dynamics and
simulates past and future scenarios of land use in Paragominas, an old agricultural frontier …

While forest degradation rates and extent exceed deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon, less
attention is given to the factors controlling its spatial distribution. No quantified correlation …

The tropical Amazon has a unique biodiversity that has been affected by the development of
pastures and economically important crops, such as soybeans. In the Amazon soil, the …

Comme nous l'avons vu, la cartographie de la dégradation des forêts tropicales est un défi
majeur pour la compréhension du phénomène et de son étendue afin de mener à bien des …

Applications such as agriculture, hydrology, and environmental management need the
mapping of soil texture. In a research region near the Great Zab River in Iraq, this study …

Beyond reducing deforestation, the control of forest degradation, the promotion of forest
restoration, and the improvement of agricultural practices in the Brazilian Amazon are …
