Experimental study of thaw settlement and internal structural changes in frozen soil during the thawing process by Chunguang Xu, Ze Zhang, Yaojun Zhao, Doudou Jin, Qihao Yu, Xiangxi Meng

“…Additionally, the packing density exhibited a favourable correlation with the water content, and the following size relationship for the packing density of the different soil types at the same water content could be established: ST (sand) > HB (silty loam) > SL (sandy loam) > YC (silty clay). The soil types exhibited varying surface soil coefficients of variation (Cv), with sample HB yielding the highest Cv value of 10.15 % and sample SL exhibiting the lowest Cv value of 5.85 %. …”

Characterizing Groundwater Level Response to Precipitation at Multiple Timescales in the Lubei Plain Region Using Transfer Function Analysis by Lewei Xu, Huili Gong, Beibei Chen, Chaofan Zhou, Xueting Zhong, Ziyao Ma, Dexin Meng

“…We applied this framework to the Lubei Plain (LBP), and the findings indicated the following: (1) Annual precipitation in the LBP decreased from southeast to northwest, with July and August contributing 51.5% of total rainfall; spatial autocorrelation of GWL was high and was influenced by geological conditions and cropland irrigation. (2) The coherence between GWL and precipitation was 0.96 in the high-precipitation areas but was only 0.6 in overexploited areas, and sandy soils enhanced the effective groundwater recharge, with a gain of 1.65 and a lag time of 2.1 months. (3) Over interannual scales, GWL response was driven by precipitation distribution and aquifer characteristics, while shorter timescales (4 months) were significantly affected by human activities, with a longer lag time in overexploited areas, which was nearly 60% longer than areas that were not overexploited. (4) Groundwater exploitation reduced the seasonality of GWL, and irrigation reduced the coherence between GWL and precipitation (0.5), with a gain of approximately 0.5, while a coherence of 0.8 and a gain of 3.5 were observed in the non-irrigation period. …”

Evaluation of the planting performance for planting substrate using the SQI-CRITIC combination model based on the least squares method by Ning Wang, Dong Xia, Dong Xia, Dong Xia, Xiaoming Duan, Bingqin Zhao, Bingqin Zhao, Wennian Xu, Wennian Xu

“…Photosynthetic rate (1.97 μmol∙m−2∙s−1) and transpiration rate (0.25 mmol∙m−2∙s−1) were significantly higher than the other fitness ratio components (P &lt; 0.05), while the stomatal width (87.03 μm) was the largest and stomatal density (19.6%) was the lowest (P &lt; 0.05). (2) The results calculated by the SQI-CRITIC combination model based on the least square method are scientific and effective, more accurate and in line with the actual situation. (3) The comprehensive analysis recommended the use of a quality mix ratio (mixture of sediment, amendment of habitat material, organic matter, cement = 100:3:12:4) in ecological restoration to achieve the best plant growth and ecological restoration effect.ConclusionThe experimental results can be extended to more areas that need to use sandy soil for ecological restoration, with a view to providing a theoretical basis for soil quality evaluation, soil and water conservation control, and ecological construction in the Yellow River Basin.…”
