Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs have significant effects on plant community composition and diversity in forest ecosystems. Compared to canopy layers, understory communities are more sensitive to exogenous nutrient inputs. Although some experimental evidence exists on the effects of N addition on understory communities, knowledge about the impacts of P addition and its interaction with N, as well as the un...

With the development of the offshore wind industry in China, the amount of offshore wind turbines has increased rapidly. Large-diameter steel monopile foundations of offshore wind turbines have been widely adopted in China with lots of marine clay located. However, the conventional offshore wind monopile bearing capacity prediction from the American Petroleum Institute (API) based on the small-diameter flexible pile field test...
