Microplastics in Agricultural Soil: Fate, Impacts, and Bioremediation by Earthworms
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.Microplastics enter the soil through various means, including the degradation of plastic film mulch, waste from cosmetics industries and municipalities, and the use of bioplastic seed coatings. These microplastics disrupt soil structure, microbial activity, enzyme function, and plant growth.

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Drought stress (DS) reduces soil phosphorus (P) availability by limiting P diffusion and uptake, while global P resource scarcity exacerbates nutrient limitations for crops. Aim This study investigated whether deep subsurface P placement could alleviate the combined effects of P deficiency and DS on maize growth.

Intrusive origin of the Sudbury Igneous Complex: Structural and sedimentological evidence [PDF]
In recent years, many geoscientists have come to believe that the Sudbury event was exogenic rather than endogenic. Critical to a recent exogenic hypothesis is the impact melt origin of the Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC).

Development, Efficiency, and Impact Factors of Phosphorus Nanofertilizers in Agriculture: A Review
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.Overview of the potential benefits of phosphorus nanofertilizers in agriculture. ABSTRACT Modern intensive agriculture to feed the growing population of the world has been practiced in view of the limitations of arable land and water resources. However, overapplication of chemical fertilizers may pose severe environmental impacts, including soil ...

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Calculating regressions between main foliar nutrient elements from German forest survey data reveals a relationship between S and N for beech, spruce, pine, and oak. For beech and spruce this relationship can be interpreted as a limiting effect of S on N, as known in agriculture and compensated there by S‐fertilization. Due to strongly reduced

Genotypic Variation in Rice Tolerance to Fe Toxicity During Germination and Establishment
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.Genotypic difference in Fe tolerance during establishment and the attributable traits. ABSTRACT Background Poor crop establishment caused by Fe toxicity hinders the adoption of direct‐seeded rice cultivation in Fe‐rich soil. To date, there have been few reports on the genotypic variation in rice's Fe tolerance during the pre‐establishment period (i.e.,

Evaluation of ERTS-1 imagery for geological sensing over the diverse geological terrains of New York State [PDF]
Film positives of ERTS-1 imagery, both as received from NASA and photographically reprocessed, are analyzed by conventional and color additive viewing methods. The imagery reveals bedrock and surficial geological information at various scales.
