Coupling aquaculture with forest plantations for food, energy, and water resiliency

Science of The Total Environment, 571, 1262–1270.

By: S. Shifflett n, A. Culbreth n, D. Hazel n, H. Daniels n & E. Nichols n 

author keywords: Bioenergy; Integrated aquaculture-managed forest plantation; Water quality; Groundwater infiltration; Ecosystem services; Food energy water nexus
MeSH headings : Agricultural Irrigation; Aquaculture; Biomass; Carbon / analysis; Carbon Sequestration; Chlorophyll / analysis; Chlorophyll A; Forestry; Forests; Groundwater / analysis; Nitrogen / analysis; North Carolina; Ponds / chemistry; Trees / physiology
TL;DR: C coupled agroecosystems could deliver productive yields of food and bioenergy as well as support water re-use while meeting water quality regulations and more research is needed to evaluated long-term sustainability and economic viability. (via Semantic Scholar)

2016 journal article

Hydrologic Impacts of Municipal Wastewater Irrigation to a Temperate Forest Watershed

Journal of Environmental Quality, 45(4), 1303–1312.

By: A. Birch *, R. Emanuel n , A. James* & E. Nichols n 

Contributors: A. Birch *, R. Emanuel n , A. James* & E. Nichols n 

MeSH headings : Forests; Groundwater; Wastewater; Water; Water Pollutants, Chemical
TL;DR: Groundwater and surface water within the watershed were found to have proportionally higher wastewater compositions than expected based on the proportion of irrigation to rainfall received by these areas, while surface water onsite was found to reflect the high wastewater composition in groundwater.

Sub-Soiling and Genotype Selection Improves Populus Productivity Grown on a North Carolina Sandy Soil

Forests, 7(12), 74.

By: S. Shifflett n, D. Hazel n & E. Guthrie Nichols  n

author keywords: disking; short rotation woody crops; tillage; site preparation; volume index; Melampsora rust
TL;DR: It is shown that tillage practices do impact poplar stem volumes after two years and that sub-soiling improves productivity for poplar short rotation woody crops on loamy fine-sandy soils. (via Semantic Scholar)

SRWC bioenergy productivity and economic feasibility on marginal lands

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT, 160, 57–66.

By: S. Ghezehei n , S. Shifflett n, D. Hazel n & E. Nichols n 

author keywords: Abandoned lands; Contaminated lands; Investment analysis; Short-rotation forestry; Sustainable feedstock production
MeSH headings : Agriculture / economics; Biomass; Humans; Pinus taeda / growth & development; Populus / growth & development; Sewage; Southeastern United States; Wood
TL;DR: Rotation length affected economic outcomes although the returns were poor due to high establishment and maintenance costs, low productivities and low current stumpage values, which are expected to quickly change with development of robust global markets. (via Semantic Scholar)
