Effect of Peat Addition on Sorption and Leaching of Triazole Fungicides in Oran Soils by Kahina Aït Hammi, Elías Nieto-Latorre, María D. Ureña-Amate, María M. Socías-Viciana, Hafida Miloudi, Naoufal Debbagh-Boutarbouch

“…Adsorption data fitted well to the Freundlich and linear models, showing the higher adsorption capacity of the Es-Senia soil for both fungicides, the order of sorption being flusilazole > penconazole. Organic amendments increased the adsorption of both fungicides especially for the soil with the lower organic matter (OM) content, obtaining a good correlation of this parameter with Kf, thus implying that OM is the principal soil parameter governing fungicides adsorption. …”

Spatiotemporal distribution of rural multifunctionality and its influencing factors: a case study of the Liaoning Coastal Economic Belt, China by Yu Chen, Jun Wang

“…The results are as follows: (1) Rural regional agglomeration had obvious characteristics that are undergoing a key transformation from slow to radical. In the spatial dimension, it shows the tendency of high coupling multi-core agglomeration and low coupling dispersion. (2) The degree of coupling coordination indicated a shift from reluctant coordination to good coordination, and the gap across counties was narrowing. (3) The dominating determinants had shifted away from natural resources toward socioeconomic and policy environment factors. …”
