Structural sustainability of cambisol under different land use system
, 2012 Incongruous management techniques have been associated with some significant loss of agricultural land to degradation in many parts of the world. Land degradation results in the alteration of physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil ...

Humic acids characterization by EDXS and 13C NMR spectroscopy
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010 Determination of humic acids spectral characteristics performed fast and convenient method for their quality evaluation. Humic acids (HA) were isolated from five different soil types (Luvi-haplic Chernozem, Haplic Luvisol, Haplic Cambisol, Leptic ...

The German Soil Systematics and the Rationale Behind Its Revision
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The German Soil Systematics is a pedogenetic classification based on the morphological expressions of pedogenic processes and has been developed over several stages since 1952. The system has successfully been in use for soil classification and soil survey for almost 70 years.

EARLY GROWTH AND FLORISTIC DIVERSITY OF HYBRID ASPEN (POPULUS X WETTSTEINII HÄMET-AHTI) PLANTATIONS ON A RECLAIMED OPENCAST OIL SHALE QUARRY IN NORTH-EAST ESTONIA; pp. 57-74 [PDF]
Oil Shale, 2008 The early growth of the trees, foliar and soil properties, and floristic diversity were studied in 5-year-old hybrid aspen plantations in four sites: A1-levelled oil shale quarry spoil (Calcaric Regosol), A2-levelled quarry spoil covered with the mixture

Early changes in soil organic carbon following afforestation of former agricultural land
Soil and Water Research, 2021 Afforestation of less productive, risky and degraded agricultural land is one of the methods which is recommended for practical agriculture to increase the carbon sequestration. In this study, we have attempted to determine the effect of afforestation of

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil microbial carbon (CUE) and nitrogen (NUE) use efficiency are critical for soil carbon (C) sequestration and nitrogen (N) availability. However, how microbial CUE and NUE respond to stand density is unclear. Furthermore, it remains unclear whether the response of microbial CUE and NUE to stand density could be mediated by soil depth.

Microbial utilisation of aboveground litter-derived organic carbon within a sandy dystric cambisol profile [PDF]
, 2021 Litter-derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is considered to be a major source of stabilised C in soil. Here we investigated the microbial utilisation of litter derived DOC within an entire soil profile using a stable isotope labelling experiment in a ...
