Assessment of changes of some functions of Ukrainian acid soils after chemical amelioration
Soil Science Annual, 2014 The objective of the article was to determine the effectiveness of lime of different origin for chemical amelioration of soils and examine its impact on soil functions such as productivity, habitat, regulation of water quality, and the protective buffer ...

Effects of acid rain on competitive releases of Cd, Cu, and Zn from two natural soils and two contaminated soils in hunan, China [PDF]
, 2007 Leaching experiments of rebuilt soil columns with two simulated acid rain solutions (pH 4.6– 3.8) were conducted for two natural soils and two artificial contaminated soils from Hunan, southcentralChina, to study effects of acid rain on competitive ...

Combining lime and organic amendments based on titratable alkalinity for efficient amelioration of acidic soils [PDF]
SOILAmeliorating soil acidity using a combination of lime and organic amendments (OAs) can be an alternative to lime alone, but determining the appropriate OA rates can be difficult.

Phosphorus in Finnish soils in the 1900s with particular reference to the acid ammonium acetate soil test [PDF]
, 2002 Comprehensive research into phosphorus (P) in soils and crops began in Finland in the early 1900s. The average amount of total P in the ploughed topsoil layer of mineral soils was about two tonnes per hectare in the 1930s, before the abundant use of ...

Soil heavy metal contamination and acid deposition: experimental approach on two forest soils in Hunan, Southern China [PDF]
, 2005 In 1985, a tailing dam collapsed in Hunan province (southern China) leading to soil contamination by heavy metals from the tailings waste. Moreover, acid deposition becomes more and more serious in this area. In this context, two forest soils (a red soil

Genetic effects for maize traits in acid and non-acid soils
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2008 Breeding programs for acid-soil tolerance are desirable as a relatively inexpensive and permanent way for increasing maize (Zea mays L.) yield on these soils.

Heavy metal distribution in some French forest soils: evidence for atmospheric contamination [PDF]
, 2003 This study is one of very few dealing with the distribution and the origin of heavy metals in French soils from a priori non-polluted forest areas. The abundance of heavy metals measured in these soils decreases as follows: Cr) Zn)Pb)Ni)Cu)Co4Cd. Total
