Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from a forested closed landfill site Open
Many national governments, organisations and environmental groups have pledged to plant trees in an effort to increase carbon sequestration and mitigate climate change. Tree planting is commonly used as a restoration strategy for former la…

Nitrous oxide emissions from trees planted on a closed landfill site Open
Trees growing in natural and managed environments have the capacity to act as conduits for the transport of greenhouse gases produced belowground to the atmosphere. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions have been observed from tree stems in natur…

Methane emissions from forested closed landfill sites: Variations between tree species and landfill management practices Open
Trees in natural and managed environments can act as conduits for the transportation of methane (CH4) from below ground to the atmosphere, bypassing oxidation in aerobic surface soils. Tree stem emissions from landfill sites exhibit large …

Methane emissions from trees planted on a closed landfill site Open
Trees have morphological adaptations that allow methane (CH 4 ) generated below ground to bypass oxidation in aerobic surface soils. This natural phenomenon however has not been measured in a landfill context where planted trees may alter …

Tree stem greenhouse gas emissions from forested closed landfill sites Open
<p>Tree planting has the potential to increase carbon sequestration and is used as a common management strategy on former landfill sites to improve their visual appeal and manage issues such as leachates from decomposing organic matt…

Continuous Forest Monitoring Using Cumulative Sums of Sentinel-1 Timeseries Open
Forest degradation is recognized as a major environmental threat on a global scale. The recent rise in natural and anthropogenic destruction of forested ecosystems highlights the need for developing new, rapid, and accurate remote sensing …

Detecting Microplastics Pollution in World Oceans Using Sar Remote Sensing Open
Plastic pollution in world oceans is estimated to have reached 270.000 tones, or 5.25 trillion pieces. This plastic is now ubiquitous, however due to ocean circulation patterns, it accumulates in the ocean gyres, creating garbage patches. …

Biodegradability standards for carrier bags and plastic films in aquatic environments: a critical review Open
Plastic litter is encountered in aquatic ecosystems across the globe, including polar environments and the deep sea. To mitigate the adverse societal and ecological impacts of this waste, there has been debate on whether ‘biodegradable' ma…

A Culture-Independent and Culture-Dependent Study of the Bacterial Community from the Bedrock Soil Interface Open
In nutrient limited soils, minerals constitute a major reservoir of bio-essential elements. Consequently, the release of nutritive elements during weathering is crucial. Bacteria have been shown to enhance weathering rates; however, there …
