Abstract Impacts of farming practices on soil hydrodynamics are central to understanding agricultural landscapes covering almost half of the world’s habitable land. Combining observations from distributed acoustic sensing with physics-based hydromechanical modeling, we tracked minute-resolution, meter-scale seismic and hydrological changes across agricultural fields with controlled histories of tillage and compaction.

INTRODUCTION Shifts in land use have been linked to soil biodiversity loss and consequent impacts on ecosystem functions and services (FAO et al., 2020; IPBES, 2019; UNEP, 2022). Land use impacts both the biological and chemical aspects of soil, and organisms populate sites conducive to their development and success (Giller, 1996).

Cepheid Centenary and the Expanding Universe

|
By Simon Jeffery Verified
| Astronotes
On  October 5, 1923, Edwin Hubble identified the first Cepheid variable in M31, the Andromeda Galaxy. This proved that the Andromeda nebula was not part of the Milky Way and paved the way for measuring the expansion of the Universe. Cepheid variables are luminous yellow stars which pulsate in brightness with periods of several days. The first was discovered by Edward Pigott on September 10, 1784 and by John Goodricke a few months later.
