Partial manure substitution in maize‐soybean intercropping reduces ammonia volatilization and increases yield and water‐use efficiency

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Intercropping of cereals with legumes is a well‐established strategy for maximizing yield, but its effectiveness in water‐use efficiency (WUE) is not well recognized. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of manure and maize‐soybean intercropping on ammonia (NH3) volatilization, yield, and WUE.

N use efficiencies and N2O emissions in two contrasting, biochar amended soils under winter wheat—cover crop—sorghum rotation

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2016
Biochar, a carbon-rich, porous pyrolysis product of organic residues, is evaluated as an option to tackle major problems of the global food system. Applied to soil, biochar can sequester carbon and have beneficial effects on nitrogen (N) cycling, thereby

A Recording Snow Lysimeter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1978
AbstractAn instrument which continuously records the run-off from a small, well-defined snow cover is described. The lysimeter is reasonably priced and effective, requiring only modest service attention; details of the records which it takes are given also.

Reusing water, reshaping nitrogen: Unravelling nitrogen dynamics in soils receiving treated wastewater

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Soils are increasingly receiving treated wastewater (TWW) to support crop production and protect natural resources. However, besides water, various inputs, such as soil nutrients (salts), organic carbon, and various contaminants of emerging concern, including antibiotics, antibiotic resistance genes, pharmaceutical compounds, heavy metals, and

Water transport monitoring in an unsaturated zone – Case study: lysimeter Selniška dobrava (Slovenia)

open access: yesGeologija, 2002
Pollution transport in an aquifer depends on its structure, upper unsaturated zone and lower saturated zone. In order to understand processes in the unsaturated zone, several hydrogeological field measurements must be done.

Truncating leguminous fixation and post‐harvest scavenging: Two pathways for reducing nitrate leaching in potato rotations

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Nitrate leaching from intensive potato production is a significant contributor to groundwater contamination and estuarine eutrophication in Atlantic Canada. This 5‐year study (2018–2023) evaluated two cover‐cropping strategies in a barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)–red clover (Trifolium pratense L.)–potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) rotation in Prince ...

Quantifying soil ammonium and nitrite via soil gas emissions

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Monitoring the soil mineral nitrogen (SMN) status of cropland is challenging due to large spatiotemporal variability. Here, we present a novel approach that correlates NH3, NO, and HONO emissions with SMN content, pH, and soil moisture, eliminating the need for destructive soil sampling. We conducted incubation experiments with five soils with

Using full‐waveform techniques to understand lysimeter‐induced effects on ground penetrating radar measurements

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Lysimeters are widely used to investigate soil‐plant‐atmosphere interactions and to assess the impact of management practices on water and nutrient fluxes. These interactions and fluxes are strongly impacted by local scale variability in soil water content and soil hydraulic properties. However, centimeter‐scale imaging of subsurface processes

Determination of crop evapotranspiration of tea (Thea sinensis) using weighing lysimeter for the Nilgiris

open access: yesJournal of Agrometeorology, 2009
A long term experiment (1996-2001) was conducted for determining crop evapotranspiration (ETc) of tea (Thea sinensis) using weighing type lysimeter at the Central Soil and Water Conservation Research and Training Institute-Research Centre (CSWCRTI-RC ...
