Carbon Dioxide and Release of Primary Nutrients in Contrasting Soils Incubated with Feedstocks and Biochar from Cull Potato and Pine Bark

open access: yesLand, 2022
Disposal of potato waste at landfills results in nutrient losses and pollution of air and groundwater. Biochar from the waste could minimise carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, increase storage of carbon (OC) and recycle nutrients in soil.

Simultaneous determination of wettability and shrinkage in an organic residue amended loamy topsoil

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2020
In agricultural land use, organic residues such as compost, digestate, and sewage sludge are discussed as costeffective soil conditioner that may improve the water holding capacity and crop available soil moisture.

Variability of topsoil hydraulic conductivity along the hillslope transects delineated in four areas strongly affected by soil erosion

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2021
Soil hydraulic conductivities of topsoils were studied at 5 points of the hillslope transects delineated at 4 geomorphologically diverse areas, where the original soil types (Chernozem, Luvisol and two Cambisols) were due to erosion transformed into ...

Soil carbon transformation in long-term field experiments with different fertilization treatments

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2018
Soil carbon transformation was observed in long-term stationary field experiments (longer than 20 years) at two sites with different soil-climatic conditions (Luvisol, Chernozem).

From chernozem to luvisol or from Luvisol to chernozem ? A discussion about the relationships and limits of the two types of soils. A case study of the soil catena of Hrusov, Czechia.

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceThe patchy character of the distribution of Chernozems and Luvisols formed on loess is often observable on the pedological maps, on a large scale, in Czechia.

Effect of Biochar and Biochar Combined with N-Fertiliser on Soil Organic Carbon Content

open access: yesAgriculture, 2016
An experiment of different application rates of biochar and biochar combined with nitrogen fertiliser was conducted at experimental field on a Haplic Luvisol located in Nitra region of Slovakia during the growing season of spring barley (2014).

Potato Tuber Yield and Quality Under Different Potassium Application Rates and Forms in West Siberia

open access: yesAgriculture, 2018
Potato cultivars have different strategies for dealing with potassium (K) deficiency in soil, and their response to different forms and rates of K fertilisation may vary because of differences in soil K availability.

Effects of amorphous silica on CO2 and N2O emissions mediated by water-filled pore space in diverse agricultural soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
IntroductionSilicon (Si) is abundant in the Earth’s crust; however, its amorphous form (ASi) is often depleted in agricultural soils due to crop uptake and removal with harvest.

History of pedogenesis and geomorphic processes in the Valley of Teotihuacán, Mexico: Micromorphological evidences from a soil catena Historia de la edafogénesis y de los procesos geomorfológicos en el Valle de Teotihuacán, México: evidencias micromorfológicas de una catena de suelos História da pedogénese e dos processos geomorfológicos no Vale de Teotihuacán, México: evidencias micromorfológicas de uma catena de solos [PDF]

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Soil Science, 2013
The paper provides new evidence on the pedogeomorphic history of the Valley of Teotihuacán, Mexico. The soil landscape here consists of Luvisol and "black soil", the micromorphology of which allowed us to (a) distinguish between in situ and inherited ...
