(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-09-20)The role of soils in the global carbon cycle and in reducing GHG emissions from agriculture has been increasingly acknowledged. The ‘4 per 1000’ (4p1000) initiative has become a prominent action plan for climate change ... -
Adipose gene expression profiles reveal insights into the adaptation of northern Eurasian semi-domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-10-07)Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) are semi-domesticated animals adapted to the challenging conditions of northern Eurasia. Adipose tissues play a crucial role in northern animals by altering gene expression in their tissues to ... -
Ammonium Sorbed to Zeolite Is Partly Available to Wheat in the First Growth Cycle
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-05)Sorption could be a way to concentrate nutrients in diluted waste streams to bring more nutrients back to agriculture. However, the sorbed nutrients must be plant available. The aim of this work was to investigate how plant ... -
Anaerobic digestion affecting nitrous oxide and methane emissions from the composting process
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-02)Composting and anaerobic digestion are the most common ways to treat organic residues. Sometimes the organic rest after anaerobic digestion is also composted. In this study we investigated greenhouse gas emissions from ... -
Analysis of Meandering River Morphodynamics Using Satellite Remote Sensing Data—An Application in the Lower Deduru Oya (River), Sri Lanka
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-07-16)River meandering and anabranching have become major problems in many large rivers that carry significant amounts of sediment worldwide. The morphodynamics of these rivers are complex due to the temporal variation of flows. ... -
Antimicrobial resistance—Do we share more than companionship with our dogs?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-05-21)Aims To investigate and compare antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in faeces from cohabiting dogs and owners. Methods and Results DNA from faecal samples from 35 dogs and 35 owners was screened for the presence of 34 ... -
Application of DNA mini-barcoding reveals illegal trade in endangered shark products in southern Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-12-05)In recent decades, a combination of increasing demand and economic globalisation has created a global market for elasmobranch products, especially the highly prized shark fins for Asian markets. Morphological species ... -
Appraisal of Satellite Rainfall Products for Malwathu, Deduru, and Kalu River Basins, Sri Lanka
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-10-20)Satellite Rainfall Products (SRPs) are now in widespread use around the world as a better alternative for scarce observed rain gauge data. Upon proper analysis of the SRPs and observed rainfall data, SRP data can be used ... -
Assessing critical load exceedances and ecosystem impacts of anthropogenic nitrogen and sulphur deposition at unmanaged forested catchments in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-01-20)Anthropogenic emissions of nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) compounds and their long-range transport have caused widespread negative impacts on different ecosystems. Critical loads (CLs) are deposition thresholds used to ... -
Assessing Impacts of Soil Management Measures on Ecosystem Services
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-26)Only a few studies have quantified and measured ecosystem services (ES) specifically related to soil. To address this gap, we have developed and applied a methodology to assess changes in ecosystem services, based on ... -
