Peanut monoculture-induced decline in fertility of Andosols in Nicaragua
(2022-08-23)
Background: Andosols are generally characterized by strong resilience to degradation and high soil fertility. This may decline during long-term peanut (Arachis hypogea) monoculture, as indicated by soil chemical and biological properties. Aims: The study investigated the monoculture-induced changes in soil chemical environment as driver for the decline in soil fertility. Methods: In this on-farm study, soils from seven sites cropped with peanut monoculture for different periods between 1 and 20 years were analyzed ...

Showcasing the multifaceted aspects of agricultural transformation: The example of mountain oases in Oman
(2022-11-11)
In the Anthropocene the consequences of land-use transformation on ecosystem services are of growing concern, particularly in fragile areas of mountain agriculture that often represent high nature-value farmland. This study uses a decadal repeated survey approach to analyse the effects of modernisation on oasis systems in the Jabal Al Akhdar region of northern Oman. This rugged mountain region at the north-eastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula experiences a growing influx of regional and international tourists since ...

Bedeutende Städte jenseits der Metropolen? Regiopolen und ihre Rolle im deutschen Städtesystem
(2022-11-10)
Regiopolen und Regiopolregionen erfahren eine bisher kaum dagewesene Aufmerksamkeit in der deutschen Raumordnungspolitik. Neben der Förderung des deutschen RegioPole-Netzwerks durch den Bund sind Regiopolen und Regiopolregionen bereits in mehreren Raumordnungsplänen ausgewiesen. Im wissenschaftlichen Diskurs werden Regiopolen hingegen kaum aufgegriffen. Das zeigt sich insbesondere daran, dass zwar mit Dimensionen wie Stadtgröße (mehr als 100.000 Einwohner) und räumlicher Lage (außerhalb der Metropolregionen) operiert ...

Designing a Co-creation System for the Development of Work-process-related Learning Material in Manufacturing
(2022-01-12)
The increasing digitalization and automatization in the manufacturing industry as well as the need to learn on the job has reinforced the need for much more granular learning, which has not yet impacted the design of learning materials. In this regard, granular learning concepts require situated learning materials to support self-directed learning in the workplace in a targeted manner. Co-creation approaches offer promising opportunities to support employees in the independent design of such situated learning materials. ...
