The effects of soil erosion, nutrient mining, soil and water salinity, water pollution, desertification, deforestation, greenhouse gases and other environmental intensification of agriculture on the environment is of major damage. The formulation of policies to reduce the negative environmental impacts of...
Even though chinchillas have been farmed for a century, there are not many studies concerning their behaviour in captivity or their optimal housing conditions, both of which are important factors in the assessment of their welfare. This study aimed to ev
High ambient air temperatures in Africa pose significant health and behavioral challenges in populations with limited access to cooling adaptations. The built environment can exacerbate heat exposure, making passive home cooling adaptations a potential m

Our hypothesis was that the economic return to double cropping would increase when feed prices or the percentage of double-cropped land increased. We also hypothesized that increasing double-cropped land would reduce N and P loss to the environment through reduced leaching and runoff. MATERIALS AND...
Qinghai Lake is the largest saline lake in China. The change in the lake volume is an indicator of the variation in water resources and their response to climate change on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) in China. The present study quantitatively evaluated the effects of climate change and ...

To prevent economic and ecological diversity losses, it is necessary to prevent additional introductions and invasions of plant species that have the potential to become serious pests of agriculture, forest, urban, and native areas. Understanding the basic biology and ecology of weeds is important to...
