Performance of five common soil moisture sensors using default calibration equations in low‐salinity conditions

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soil moisture monitoring plays a critical role in water resource management, hydrological modeling, and climate studies, making sensor accuracy and reliability increasingly important. This study evaluates the performance of five soil moisture sensors—the CS655, HydraProbe, TDR‐315N, TEROS 12, and ThetaProbe—using their default calibrations ...

Effects of soil profile configuration‐based weathered coal residue addition on soil water infiltration and evaporation

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Optimizing soil profile configuration is crucial for ensuring food security in arid and semi‐arid regions by regulating soil water distribution. Applying exogenous materials is an effective method to construct functional soil profiles. Most existing studies focused on amending topsoil with exogenous materials, while the impacts of applying ...

Understanding the factors (salinity, nitrate, and carbon availability) and mechanisms that control N2O products and nitrate removal patterns in inland saline farmland ditches

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Denitrification, the microbial process by which nitrate (NO3−) in aquatic systems is converted to N2 and N2O, is widely recognized as an effective and environmentally friendly method for mitigating NO3− pollution in water bodies. However, the complex role of salinity, which could significantly influence the denitrification process, in salt ...

Soil Profiles: A Window Into Soil Genesis and Degradation

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT In this commentary, we argue that the soil profile represents an indispensable window into the soil system. The soil profile is a vertical section of the soil body that represents a pattern in the landscape. The description and interpretation of the layers and horizons from the surface to the parent material or bedrock is the language of soil ...

Cenozoic Time Constraints on the Evolution of a Gleysol‐Ferralsol‐Podzol Toposequence, Northwest Amazon Basin, Brazil

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT Deciphering the time milestones of clay formation is crucial for modeling the evolution of major geological systems near the Earth's surface. In the present study, kaolinite samples collected along four vertical profiles within a Gleysol‐Ferralsol‐Podzol soil toposequence near São Gabriel da Cachoeira, NW Amazon Basin (Brazil) are dated using ...
