Impacts of reindeer grazing on phosphorus sorption and nutrient availability in a tundra site
Reindeer Rangifer tarandus, a large circumpolar herbivore, can influence whether nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P) is the primary limiting nutrient in tundra plant communities. Specifically, findings from a site in northern Scandinavia suggest that under conditions where reindeer grazing stimulates inorganic N availability, grazing may drive ecosystems ...

Phosphorus (P) along with nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) comprise the three macronutrients most frequently added as fertilizer for growing plants. In Alaska soils, P is often the second most limiting nutrient after N. A proper supply of plant-available

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

Disponibilidade de cobre para mudas de eucalipto em solos de cerrado
No Brasil, com a intensificação da silvicultura clonal, o plantio de materiais genéticos mais produtivos e exigentes nutricionalmente tem aumentado o aparecimento de sintomas de deficiência de micronutrientes, principalmente de B e, mais recentemente, de

Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

Ácido ascórbico como agente redutor para determinação de fósforo por colorimetria
Em muitos laboratórios de análises de solos, o ácido 1-Amino-2-naftol-4-sulfônico (ANS) é usado como agente redutor para determinação do P por espectrometria de UV/Visível.

Evaluation of manganese and iron availability in soils by a modified ion exchange resin method [PDF]
[Resumo] A avaliação do método modificado da resina de troca de íons para extração de Mn e Fe dos solos foi o objetivo desta pesquisa. Foram utilizadas 44 amostras de solo, cujos teores de Mn variaram de baixos a altos e de Fe de médios a altos.

Do position and species identity of neighbours matter in 8–15-year-old post harvest mesic stands in the boreal mixedwood? [PDF]
Neighbourhood competition indices (NCI), where position and species identity of neighbours are known, have been used to investigate growth and competitive interactions among adult trees.

Why raw yield data are better than relative yield in informing agronomic and economic decisions
Abstract While relative yield is widely used for its comparability, normalization can cause significant information loss. This study reframes yield metric selection as a model evaluation problem to determine the most accurate representation of crop response. We evaluated seven yield metrics with three agronomic models, comparing estimates of a critical
