Soil Carbon–Nitrogen Pools and Soil Health Across Contrasting Land Uses and a No‐Till Conservation Chronosequence in a Tropical Guinea Savanna Agroecosystem

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil carbon–nitrogen pools are central to soil health, yet their responses to conservation‐oriented management remain insufficiently quantified in tropical agroecosystems. This study evaluated soil carbon–nitrogen pools, stocks and soil health indicators across conventionally managed arable land (CMA), no‐till‐based conservation systems with 2,

Genotype by Environment Interaction for Agro‐Morphological Traits and Grain Yield Stability in Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Genotypes Using AMMI Analysis Under Acidic Soil Conditions in Ethiopia

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Barley production in the Ethiopian highlands is constrained by soil acidity and the lack of acid‐tolerant genotypes. This study evaluated the effects of environment, genotype, and their interaction on barley performance and identified suitable genotypes for acidic soils.

Revitalizing Traditional Tank Systems: Case Study Insights From Sri Lanka's Village Tank Cascade Systems for Climate Resilience and Water Governance

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Village tank cascade systems (VTCS) are a long‐established form of water management in Sri Lanka's dry zone. However, their role in groundwater recharge, climate adaptation, and water governance remains insufficiently recognized in policy and planning.

Changes in the Content of Soil Phosphorus after its Application into Chernozem and Haplic Luvisol and the Effect on Yields of Barley Biomass

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2016
The pot experiment was established in vegetation hall in the year 2015. Spring barley, variety KWS Irina, was grown. Two different soils – chernozem from Brno (with a low phosphorus content and alkali soil reaction – 7.37) and haplic luvisol from ...

Spatial Heterogeneity and Nonlinear Influencing Mechanisms of Vegetation Carbon Sequestration Capacity in the Southwest China Karst Region

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation carbon sequestration capacity (VCSC) in Southwest China's contiguous karst region is critical for regional carbon cycling. Using MOD17A3 data from 2001 to 2023, we analyzed spatial heterogeneity in vegetation net primary productivity (NPP) and applied Geodetector to evaluate nonlinear ...

Soil texture governs the influence of different microplastics on soil hydraulic properties

Vadose Zone Journal
Adequate water availability in soil is crucial for optimal plant growth. However, even small amounts of microplastics (MPs) can disrupt the soil pore structure, impacting water retention and hydraulic conductivity, and consequently plant‐available water.

Seed emergence of lucerne varieties under different soil conditions

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2012
The aim of this study was to examine in greenhouse experiments seed emergence of 14 lucerne varieties (mostly of the Czech origin) under different soil conditions (Luvisol, Chernozem and Cambisol).

Carbon, Water, and Energy Flux Dynamics in Different Cropping Systems in the Great Lakes Region

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study examined carbon (C), water, and energy exchanges across different cropping systems in the Great Lakes region using eddy covariance (EC) fluxes from an agricultural flux tower site (CA‐TPA) in southern Ontario, Canada. The site was cultivated with corn in 2020 and 2021, sweet potato in 2022, and tobacco in 2023. The site was a strong

Test of the Biological Module of CERES-Maize Model in Lysimeters on Chromic Luvisols

Bulgarian Journal of Soil Science, 2001
This paper reports on CERES-maize model stepwise calibration, modification and validation using independent data from specific experiments carried out in a chromic luvisol (Chelopechene), Sofia field,1997-1999. Laboratory based water conductivity curve WCC (eq.1) and water retention curve WRC (eq.2) are calibrated (step i) and adjusted to data measured

Impact of Different Microplastics on Soil Evaporation Rates: A Comparative Analysis Across Chernozem, Umbrisol, and Luvisol

Land
In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of microplastics (MPs) as significant emerging pollutants. Soil contamination by MPs, comprising plastic particles smaller than 5 mm, originates from diverse sources.
