Abstract Yearly, about 22× 10 12 g phosphorus (P) from mined fossil phosphate resources
are added to the world economy. The size of remaining fossil phosphate resources is …

The Northern Great Plains is a key region to global food production. It is also a region of
water stress that includes poor water quality associated with high concentrations of nutrients …

Preferential flow is expected to provide preferential channels for plant root growth and
variations in soil water flow, but few studies were conducted to imply the impacts of these …

The article provides an overview of studies about the preferential flow phenomenon. This
phenomenon is one of the types of the transportation of water solution through the soil …

In cold agricultural regions, seasonal snowmelt over frozen soils provides the primary
source of runoff and transports large nutrient loads downstream. The postglacial landscape …

The major challenge in attaining a sustainable future for humanity lies in accelerating
development of well-integrated, problem solving, and policy-orientated environmental …

A frozen soil layer may impede snowmelt infiltration, resulting in a large amount of runoff that
influences the soil water balance and anion movement in the soil profile. To examine the …

Measurement of the retention of dissolved nutrients in riparian areas with snowmelt runoff
are much less common than for rainfall runoff, but low rates of uptake or the release of …

A multi-model-based study was performed in order to unravel valuable fen meadow habitats'
possible exposure to eutrophication, which is expected to occur as a result of the re …

Mountain rivers not only play an important role in flood control, but also perform other
functions such as conserving water sources, regulating microclimate, and maintaining water …
