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

open access: yesGrassland 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.

Flood Hazard Mapping in a Data‐Scarce Urban Watershed Using Analytical Hierarchy Process and Fuzzy Logic: A Case Study of Cuttack, India

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Floods are among the most frequent and damaging natural hazards in India, particularly affecting low‐lying urban areas in the eastern regions such as Cuttack, Odisha. This study aims to develop a flood hazard susceptibility map for the Cuttack district in Odisha, India, using a combined Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and fuzzy logic ...

Aplicación de diferentes fuentes de azufre en soya (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) en tres ordenes de suelos del Valle del río Cauca, Colombia, en condiciones de invernadero

open access: yesActa Agronómica, 1989
Se utilizaron cuatro fuentes portadoras de S (sulfato de amonio, yeso, ácido sulfúrico y azufre micronizado) en dosis de 20 y 40 kg de S/ha, aplicado en pre y al momento de la siembra , en tres órdenes de suelos (Vertisol, Inceptisol y Entisol) del Valle

A pleiotropic “stretch” phenotype is associated with metaxylem vessel element length, axial hydraulic conductance, root elongation, water utilization, and drought adaptation in maize

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract We tested the hypothesis that metaxylem phenotypes influence drought adaptation in maize (Zea mays L.) through in silico modeling and empirical studies under water deficit in controlled environments and in the field. Substantial genotypic variation for metaxylem vessel element length (MVEL) was observed. Longer MVEL was correlated with reduced

Thermodynamics of phosphate adsorption‐desorption by alfisols, entisols, vertisols, and inceptisols

open access: yesCommunications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1996
Abstract Adsorption and desorption of phosphorous (P) by four types of greek soils, Alfisols, Entisols, Vertisols, and Inceptisols, were the subject of the present investigation. These processes were studied under different conditions of initially added P concentration and at different temperatures.

Effect of glyphosate contamination on surface charge change and nutrients of degraded Inceptisols ameliorated with sub-bituminous coal

open access: yesJournal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management
The widespread use of glyphosate to eradicate weeds in agricultural areas has the potential for contamination and residues in the soil that must be carefully considered. This study aimed to elucidate the effect of glyphosate contamination on the chemical

Mammals' zoogeochemical effects change litter and soil biogeochemistry in a tropical rainforest

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract While most research on nutrient cycling has focused on plant–soil interactions or soil decomposers, recent studies highlight the emerging role of terrestrial mammals in contributing to biogeochemical cycles, a field known as zoogeochemistry. More than half of all mammal species are found in tropical forests, ecosystems currently experiencing ...

Five decades of hand‐feel soil texture estimation: Accuracy, challenges, and improvements

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soil texture refers to the proportion of fine soil particles with diameters less than 2 mm, classified into particle size categories that define the soil texture class. Hand‐feel estimation in the field is widely used by soil scientists and technicians during pedological surveys to characterize soil horizons.

Pedology and its relationship to cropping decisions in Kamuli District, Uganda

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Kamuli District offers an opportunity to understand pedology and cropping decisions in an area that has been underdocumented. Broad, flat summits and narrow convex shoulders are composed of residuum formed from Precambrian granite. Valleys mirror the summits, that is, broad flats composed of alluvium that are rimmed by narrow concave toeslopes.
