Abstract:
Various models for predicting profile available water capacity (PAWC) from laboratory measurements were compared with published field values for the same sites. The intention was to choose the best model/s to predict PAWC, by using a database, for a wide range of soils in the Burdekin Irrigation Area, North Queensland. Effective rooting depth for all models was estimated from the chloride profile. It was found that the predictive abilities of all models used were dependent on soil types.

Most upper-semester students who fail to graduate have an issue with their perceived academic writing competence (PAWC). PAWC is associated with writing self-efficacy (WSE) and writer's block (WB).

Only limited studies focused on exploring academic writing practice for vocational students by survey strategy. This study used a quantitative approach to test the hypothesis that WSE and WB positively affect PAWC. Respondents were selected using random sampling involving 200

Avena sterilis ssp. ludoviciana (hereafter, A. ludoviciana) is considered the most difficult-to-control winter weed in the Northern Grains Region (NGR) of Australia. The abundance of this weed has increased after the adoption of the no-tillage conservation agriculture (NTCA) approach, which does not bury seeds deep in the soil profile. In addition, the increasing frequency and intensity of drought stress events during the late winter to early spring period in the NGR may modify this weed’s persistence mechanisms, which may further impact crop production.

Soil water availability to the plants is a very important physical property of soil that controls water and nutrient absorption by the plant.

However, soil factors that control the plant available water content (PAWC) in the soil have not been fully understood.

Time-lapse ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys, combined with automated infiltration experiments, provide a non-invasive approach for investigating the distribution of infiltrated water within the soil medium and creating three-dimensional images of the wetting bulb. This study developed and validated an experimental protocol aimed at quantifying and visualizing water distribution fluxes in layered soils under both unsaturated and saturated conditions. The 3D images of the wetting bulb significantly enhanced the interpretation of infiltration data, enabling a detailed analysis of water move

Abstract:
Hodgkin’s lymphoma carries an excellent prognosis with modern chemotherapy, but a significant proportion of patients remain refractory to or relapse after first-line treatment. Immunological changes post-treatment, such as chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN) or lymphopenia, have shown prognostic significance in multiple tumor types. Our study aims to investigate the prognostic value of immunologic changes in Hodgkin’s lymphoma by examining the post-treatment lymphocyte count (pALC), neutrophil count (pANC) and the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (pNLR).

Abstract:
During opencast lignite mining, the natural landscape is damaged, along with soils, and new anthropogenic landforms are created which require reclamation. Usually, the evaluation of the effects of reclamation (mostly forestry) is concerned with changes in chemical properties in the first years, mainly in the surface horizon. This study analyzed the effect of long-term agricultural reclamation (43 years) on the physical and water retention properties of Technosols. The experiment involved cultivation of winter wheat and winter oilseed rape under 3 fertilization variants. After 43 years, an Ap h

The results show that PAcC achieved a significantly higher gold adsorption rate of up to 99.87%, compared to PAnC, which achieved a maximum of 66%, mitigating the preg-robbing effect. The stainless steel reactor performed best, with gold recovery rates exceeding 90%, as confirmed by a multi-criteria decision ma

To evaluate and quantitatively analyze the relationship between catchment runoff capacity and environmental factors, principal component analysis, step regression analysis, and sensitivity analysis were conducted. The results show that the runoff capacity of Haihe river basin was mainly controlled by vegetation types and soil texture; catchments with lower runoff capacity

Abstract:
Soils with high levels of chloride and/or sodium in their subsurface layers are often referred to as having subsoil constraints (SSCs). There is growing evidence that SSCs affect wheat yields by increasing the lower limit of a crop’s available soil water (CLL) and thus reducing the soil’s plant-available water capacity (PAWC). This proposal was tested by simulation of 33 farmers’ paddocks in south-western Queensland and north-western New South Wales. The simulated results accounted for 79% of observed variation in grain yield, with a root mean squared deviation (RMSD) of 0.50 t/ha. This result
