Abstract: <p>A key knowledge gap in aeolian transport research concerns the adjustment of saltation processes to the extreme conditions found within high-latitude regions. A series of wind tunnel experiments were carried out under full climate control and over a wide range in humidity. Particle entrainment and transport within shearing flows of varied wind speed were monitored over beds of varied… more
Abstract: <p>Glyphosate burndown and tillage, followed by the cultivation of cash crops, are frequently used techniques in LUC from perennial cropping systems (PS) to annual cropping systems (AS). Agricultural LUC can result in the loss of soil nitrogen (N) via emission of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas (GHG). The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the short-term impacts of… more
