Different approaches to processing environmental DNA samples in turbid waters have distinct effects for fish, bacterial and archaea communities by Turba, Rachel, Thai, Glory H., Jacobs, David K.

“…Coastal lagoons are an important habitat for endemic and threatened species in California that have suffered impacts from urbanization and increased drought. Environmental DNA has been promoted as a way to aid in the monitoring of biological communities, but much remains to be understood on the biases introduced by different protocols meant to overcome challenges presented by unique systems under study. …”

THE RELATION OF NORTH ATLANTIC OSCILLATION(NAO) AND ENSO WITH PRECIPITATION IN THE SOUTHERN SHORES OF CASPIAN SEA by Zahra Hejazizadeh, Mehry akbary, Zarin jamshidiyini

“…The correlation between precipitation and different phases of NAO showed that there was a positive correlation between precipitation and negative phase of the index in Ramsar station and a negative correlation between precipitation and positive phase in the Gorgan station.The results of the Pearson correlation show a significant correlation between the MEI and rainfall amounts in the autumn in some stations in the early winter. In Review drought and wet periods with both Indicator it was observed that the behavior of the stations in the El Niño period, which was with different phases of the NAO was not entirely harmonious but the coefficient of 89% of rainfall in normal and more than normal during the period of El Niño showed that Elnino is better fitted to normal and more than normal rainfall in these stations also coefficient of 60%  of weak to severe droughts in the Lanina period in the selected stations Indicates that the LaNina phase was more related with severe droughts in the under studied period.…”

Symbiotic Root-Endophytic Soil Microbes Improve Crop Productivity and Provide Environmental Benefits by Gary E. Harman, Norman Uphoff

“…Such root colonization by symbiotic microbes can raise crop yields by promoting the growth of both shoots and roots, by enhancing uptake, fixation, and/or more efficient use of nutrients, by improving plants’ resistance to pests, diseases, and abiotic stresses that include drought, salt, and other environmental conditions, and by enhancing plants’ capacity for photosynthesis. …”

Rainfall distribution variability controls surface but not belowground litter decomposition in a semi-arid shrubland by Yulin Li, Li Cheng, Honglin Yang, Rui Zhang, Zhiying Ning

“…IntroductionRainfall patterns are expected to become increasingly erratic as a result of global climate change, with more intense but less frequent rainfall events leading to an increased occurrence of drought events. This process may lead to significant declines in vegetation cover and subsequent increases in soil erosion, consequently accelerating the bury of detached litter by soil deposition and the mixture of residues from different plant species. …”

<i>Quercus cerris</i> Leaf Functional Traits to Assess Urban Forest Health Status for Expeditious Analysis in a Mediterranean European Context by Luca Quaranta, Piera Di Marzio, Paola Fortini

“…The results demonstrated that <i>Q. cerris</i> experiences significant water stress in urban forests due to the combined effects of drought and high temperatures. To find the tools to mitigate this stress, the differences between leaf traits such as specific leaf area, thickness, and the contents of chlorophyll, anthocyanins, and flavonols in urban and natural forests were analyzed. …”

Data-Driven Decision Support to Guide Sustainable Grazing Management by Matthew C. Reeves, Joseph Swisher, Michael Krebs, Kelly Warnke, Brice B. Hanberry, Tip Hudson, Sonia A. Hall

“…In addition to being spatio-temporally comprehensive, the model provides a repeatable, cost-effective, and transparent process for establishing and adjusting capacity estimates and associated grazing plans that are supported by scientific information, in order to support livestock numbers at levels that are sustainable over time, including levels that are below average forage production during drought conditions. This modeling process acts as a decision support tool because it enables different assumptions to be used and explored to accommodate multiple viewpoints during the planning process.…”
