The influence of grassing and harvest management on microbial parameters after arable land setting-aside

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2002
During the years 1998-2000 soil chemical (Corg, Nt, pH), textural (sand, silt clay) and microbiological (microbial biomass carbon - CMB, microbial extracellular carbon - CEX, respiration, ammonification, nitrification) characteristics were tested on ...

Road salts effects on soil chemical and microbial properties at grassland and forest site in protected natural areas

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2012
Road salting is used as a dominant way to keep road safety in winter, even in the protected natural areas. In our study, possible effects of winter road salting on soil microorganisms in close road vicinity were investigated.

Plant Nitrogen Uptake From Insect Frass Is Affected by the Nitrification Rate as Revealed by Urease and Nitrification Inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
Insect protein production is considered a sustainable alternative to livestock protein which furthermore utilizes waste streams. Its production can have positive but also potentially negative environmental effects, which require evaluation.

Reducing Ammonia Losses By Adding FeCI3 During Composting Of Sewage Sludge [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The release of ammonia nitrogen during composting of sewage sludge mixed with a lignocellulosic bulking agent leads to a reduction in the agronomic value of the final compost and to harmful effects on the environment. We propose adding a cheap salt FeCl3

Effects of Temperature and Humidity on Soil Gross Nitrogen Transformation in a Typical Shrub Ecosystem in Yanshan Mountain and Hilly Region

open access: yesLife, 2023
Shrubland is a pivotal terrestrial ecosystem in China. Soil nitrogen transformations play a crucial role in maintaining the productivity of this ecosystem, yet the driving forces underlying it have not been sufficiently addressed, particularly under ...

Enzymology and bioenergetics of respiratory nitrite ammonification [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2002
Nitrite is widely used by bacteria as an electron acceptor under anaerobic conditions. In respiratory nitrite ammonification an electrochemical proton potential across the membrane is generated by electron transport from a non-fermentable substrate like formate or H(2) to nitrite.

Relations between activities and counts of soil microorganisms

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2008
Microbial activities and counts of microorganisms were monitored as a part of research projects at 11 localities on arable land of different soil types during the years 2002-2006.

Elevated CO2 and Warming Altered Grassland Microbial Communities in Soil Top-Layers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
As two central issues of global climate change, the continuous increase of both atmospheric CO2 concentrations and global temperature has profound effects on various terrestrial ecosystems.

Microbiological parameters of soil set aside before and after desiccation

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2006
Herbaceous cover of luvic chernozem (seven years set aside) with legumes, perennial grasses and their mixture was desiccated by the glyphosate herbicide Roundup Biaktiv (5 l/ha at July 2003 and 4 l/ha at June 2004). 165 soil samples were collected before

Nitrification amplifies the decreasing trends of atmospheric oxygen and implies a larger land carbon uptake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
[1] Atmospheric O-2 trend measurements are used to partition global oceanic and land biotic carbon sinks on a multiannual basis. The underlying principle is that a terrestrial uptake or release of CO2 is accompanied by an opposite flux of O-2.
