Interactions Between Dissolved Organic Carbon and Aluminium Activity in Tropical and Temperate No‐Till Agroecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Conceptual model of depth‐stratified soil acidification under long‐term no‐till in temperate (Washington, USA) and tropical (Brazilian Oxisol) systems. Nitrogen inputs promote surface acidification (↓pH) and increased Al3+ activity, while lime or silicate amendments modify base cation dynamics. Increased DOC–Al complexation reduces free Al3+ and alters

Soil chemical properties effect on phosphorus fractions and maximum adsorption capacity in Brazilian tropical soils

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Phosphorus (P) availability in tropical soils is strongly limited by high adsorption capacity, primarily driven by mineralogical and chemical characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of soil properties on P sorption kinetics, maximum phosphorus adsorption capacity (MPAC), and P fraction distribution across 17 soil samples ...

Incipient ferralization and weathering indices along a soil chronosequence in Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The low hilly topography of Green Island, a volcanic island off southeastern Taiwan, includes an altitudinal sequence of sub-horizontal benches. We examined eight profiles along this sequence, ranging from pale brown loamy coral sand on the lowest bench ...

Evaluating Sodium Pyrophosphate Extraction to Probe Soil Organo‐Mineral Interactions Across Contrasting Pedogenic Stages

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 2, March–April 2026.
ABSTRACT Sodium pyrophosphate (NaPPi) is widely used in wet‐chemical extraction methods for assessing organo‐mineral interactions (OMIs) in soils. However, its effectiveness remains debated due to challenges in achieving specific solubilization and issues such as peptization and solubilization of organic carbon (OC) not directly associated with ...

Phase behaviour of binary mixtures of diamagnetic colloidal platelets in an external magnetic field

open access: yes, 2011
Using fundamental measure density functional theory we investigate paranematic-nematic and nematic-nematic phase coexistence in binary mixtures of circular platelets with vanishing thicknesses.
