Potassium sorption by Entisols of Greece as described by commonly used isotherms

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1994
Abstract The soils of agricultural areas in Greece are formed from alluvial calcareous deposits, mainly classified as Entisols. The objectives of the present investigation were to elucidate the most commonly used isotherms of potassium adsorption by Entisols at pH levels of 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0 and initial concentrations of 3.5, 10.7, 17.8, 22.1,

Maximum soil density of Entisols as a function of silt content [PDF]

Ciência Rural, 2017
ABSTRACT: Degradation that occursin agricultural soils causes compaction.Soil density (DS) analysis has been reported to be an unreliable method of measuring the extent of soil compaction, because it varies with the soil granulometric composition and organic matter (OM)content.

Functional Stability and the Limits of 16S‐Based Inference in Serpentine Biocrusts

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Serpentine geochemistry and moisture regime shape bacterial biocrust communities in the Barberton Greenstone Belt, South Africa. While coarse taxonomic metrics (alpha and beta diversity) showed no significant differences, ASV‐level analyses revealed strong taxonomic shifts linked to soil chemistry and moisture, with numerous serpentine‐associated taxa ...

Integrating Soil Taxonomy With Soil and Remote Sensing Indices for Site‐Specific Management in the Egyptian Nile Delta Fringes

Soil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sustainable soil management in arid regions is constrained by the limited translation of subgroup‐level soil taxonomy into site‐specific agronomic recommendations. Hence, this study integrated field observations and laboratory analyses from 18 soil profiles with freely available Google Earth Engine (GEE) datasets.

Net mineralizable soil phosphorus cannot be measured by non‐isotopic approaches

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract While radioisotopic pool dilution is widely regarded as the most reliable method for estimating soil phosphorus mineralization (Pmin), high costs, low throughput, and safety requirements limit its use. We evaluated the potential of non‐radioisotopic approaches to estimating net Pmin by difference before and after aerobic incubation, analogous ...

Phytoremediation of tapioca wastewater using water hyacinth plant (Eichhornia crassipes)

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2015
The objective of this study was to elucidate the possible phytoremediation of liquid waste of tapioca industry using Eichhornia crassipes prior its usage for watering maize grown on an Entisol of Malang.

An energy‐based aggregate stability method is more management‐sensitive than commercial methods in coarse‐textured, subtropical orchard soils

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Aggregate stability impacts important soil functions, including carbon/water storage and soil structure. Macroaggregate stability tests, using rainfall simulation or wet sieving, are commonly used, but microaggregate stability tests may be more applicable to subtropical, coarse‐textured soils.

Water Cationic Composition on Potassium Displacement in Tropical Soils

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the interplay between water hardness, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), and electrical conductivity (EC); with tropical soil physical, chemical, and mineralogical characteristics on the displacement K+. The water quality treatments represented solutions suitable and not suitable for irrigation, with varying levels of ...

Exploring variations in potential carbon and nitrogen mineralization in managed grasslands among the diversity of soils in North Carolina

Grassland Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 169-181, June 2026.
Under steady–state conditions, potential nitrogen mineralization in soil under grasslands is closely tied to potential carbon mineralization. This study provides supporting evidence that field–specific nitrogen fertilizer recommendations could be indicated by using a simple and rapid analysis of soil–test biological activity.

Sensitivity of Soil Chemical Erosion Rate to Climate and Dust Along a 2.8‐km Elevation Transect at San Jacinto Mountain, California

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Chemical weathering is of wide interest because it breaks down minerals, releases nutrients, weakens rock, and draws down atmospheric CO2. To quantify the sensitivity of soil chemical erosion rate to climate and dust, we measured soil chemical erosion rate, dust deposition rate, and soil climate at 18 ridgetop sites along a ∼2.8‐km elevation ...
