Assessment of the sedimentation and trapping efficiency in dam reservoirs by applying the settling basin framework by Bérenger Koffi, Koffi Eugène Kouakou, Alexis Loukou Brou, Martin Sanchez, Ouédé Gla Blaise, Brice Wawogninlin Coulibaly, Franck Hervé Akaffou, Michal Habel, Amani Michel Kouassi, Dibi Brou, Kouakou Lazare Kouassi

“…However, for Pe > 4, the numerical values and curves fall outside the validity range of Teeter’s (1986) model, particularly during dry periods.The findings provide crucial insights into the hydrosedimentary dynamics of the Lobo River reservoir, emphasizing the need to account for seasonal variations and hydrological conditions. This research offers valuable guidance for sediment and water resource management, contributing to the sustainability of reservoirs in tropical regions facing similar environmental pressures.…”

Amorphous silica reduces N2O emissions from arable land at the field plot scale by Mathias Hoffmann, Oscar Rodrigo Monzon Diaz, Isabel Zentgraf, Wael Al-Hamwi, Maren Dubbert, Mathias Stein, Maire Holz, Jörg Schaller, Jörg Schaller

“…Both factors are known to directly and indirectly affect N2O emissions from agroecosystems.MethodsIn this study we conducted a field plot trial on arable soil depleted in ASi and fertilized this soil to its pre-agricultural ASi level.ResultsOur data clearly shows that increasing soil ASi to a pre-agricultural level decreased seasonal N2O emissions by ∼30%.DiscussionThis reduction of N2O emissions due to ASi might be of global relevance as agricultural practice has reduced the ASi content in agricultural soils. …”
