Fertilization accelerates the decomposition of microplastics in mollisols
Science of The Total Environment, 2020Agricultural films composed of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) have been widely used in farmland, and LDPE microplastics (LDPE-MPs) produced from LDPE degradation can pollute soils and can exert negative effects on biota. Both nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) can alter the activity of soil microorganisms and may alter the LDPE-MP degradation process in ...

, 2014 Persistence of Subsoil Compaction in a Mollisol
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1976Abstract Persistence of subsoil compaction was tested in Nicollet clay loam (a Mollisol) in southwestern Minnesota. Plots were either not packed or packed in 1960 in the bottom of each plow furrow using about 7.5 bars pressure, and were cropped to corn ( Zea mays L.) and ...

Key factors influencing on vegetation restoration in the gullies of the Mollisols
Journal of Environmental Management, 2021Natural vegetation restoration (NVR) highly relates to the development of gully erosion, and is mainly determined by both the soil properties and species competition in the gullies. However, it is still not clear what are the key factors influencing on the vegetation restoration in the gullies with the poor soil properties (e.g. low soil organic matter

Investigation on the Stabilization of the Humus in Mollisols
Zeitschrift für Pflanzenernährung und Bodenkunde, 1988AbstractSoil organic matter in Mollisols is often preserved for an extremely long period (e.g. > 3000 years). We confirmed that the stable organic matter in Mollisols is the medium to coarse sized (0.2–2.0 μm) clay‐humus complex with humic acid combined with calcium as the main organic constituent.

Kinetics of sorption‐desorption of benfuracarb insecticide in mollisols
Pest Management Science, 2010AbstractBACKGROUND: Sorption‐desorption processes govern the movement of pesticides in soil. These processes determine the potential hazard of the pesticide in a given environment for groundwater contamination and need to be investigated.RESULTS: In the present study, sorption‐desorption processes of benfuracarb were investigated using a batch method ...

Fate of Benfuracarb Insecticide in Mollisols and Brinjal Crop
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2009The fate of benfuracarb was studied under field conditions in brinjal fruits and soil following foliar spray application at 0.25 and 0.50 microg g(-1) by HPLC. At 0.25 microg g(-1), benfuracarb persisted up to 7 days both in soil and brinjal but at 0.50 microg g(-1), benfuracarb residues persisted up to 10 and 12 days in soil and brinjal fruits ...

Mollisols properties and changes in Ukraine and China
Chinese Geographical Science, 2011Soils are the foundation of civilizations and the basis for human food production. Mollisols in Ukraine and Northeast China are two out of the four major Mollisol regions in the world. The natural areas from which Mollisols developed are the prairies and steppes that experience temperate and freezing conditions. This review paper introduces the general

Physical properties of a Mollisol, an Oxisol and an Inceptisol
Soil and Tillage Research, 1990Abstract An Inceptisol (Andept) from Ecuador, an OOxisol (Ustox) from Columbia and a Mollisol (Udoll) from the U.S.A. were studied. The clay in the Andept was >85% amorphous with allophane being predominant. The Ustox contained sesqui-oxides of iron and aluminum and kaolinite, while the Udoll contained hydrous mica, quartz and kaolinite in the clay ...

Fractionation of Phosphorus in a Mollisol Amended with Biosolids
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1999Information about soil P fractions is useful to predict the bioavailability of P in soil as well as to predict the likelihood of its transport. In this study, we used a sequential fractionation procedure to investigate the forms of P in a Mollisol amended at the soil surface with biosolids (i.e., anaerobically digested sewage ...
