Effects on Soil Organic Carbon and Microbial Biomass Carbon of Different Tillage [PDF]

Advances in Computer Science Research, 2015
To research data of soil organic carbon content and Soil microbial biomass carbon of different tillage, the results show that less tillage measures could significantly increase the active soil organic carbon content and Soil microbial biomass carbon. In addition, the contribution to increase organic carbon and microbial biomass carbon is much higher ...

Short-term winter snow reduction stimulates soil nutrient leaching without changing the microbial biomass in an alpine fir forest

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Winter snowpack maintains a relatively warm environment for soil microorganisms and modulates soil biogeochemical cycles in cold ecosystems; however, snowpack reduction induced by climate warming may change soil dissolved nutrient leaching and microbial ...

Integrating microbial community properties, biomass and necromass to predict cropland soil organic carbon

ISME Communications, 2023
Manipulating microorganisms to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) in croplands remains a challenge. Soil microbes are important drivers of SOC sequestration, especially via their necromass accumulation.

Estimation of microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen in Bangladesh soils

Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1991
Abstract In order to estimate the microbial biomass content and to quantify the amount of available plant nutrients derived from microbial biomass in Bangladesh soils, biomass-C, -N, and available-N contents using samples from 8 soils were measured by applying the chloroform fumigation and drying-rewetting methods, respectively.

Microbial fertilizer regulates C:N:P stoichiometry and alleviates phosphorus limitation in flue-cured tobacco planting soil

Scientific Reports, 2023
Fertilization can be optimized and managed during the flue-cured tobacco growing period by studying the response of soil and microbial biomass stoichiometric characteristics to fertilization.
