Simplifying the Determination of Aggregate Stability Indicators of Mollisols [PDF]
ABSTRACTAggregate stability (AS) is a very sensitive soil physical health indicator. The complexity of its determination discourages frequent monitoring.

Profile Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics in Typical Chernozem under Long-Term Tillage Use
For the first time in research literature, this report presents the seasonal changes of total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), and TOC:TN ratio in Chernozem solum (0–100 cm) as effected by 14 years of application of conventional tillage (CTu ...

Mung bean yield stability exists across seeding rates
Abstract Mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] is gaining attention as a sustainable, high‐protein legume with the potential to diversify cropping systems in temperate regions such as Iowa. However, optimal agronomic management practices, including seeding rate, remain largely unexplored in this region. This study evaluated the effects of seeding rate

Soil physical quality of Mollisols quantified by a global index [PDF]
Indicators synthesizing the state of the structural quality and the function of the porous system are useful for assessing soil production capacity as well as the way it may serve natural ecosystems. This research aimed (i) to determine indicators of the state and function of the porous system, (ii) to use them to derive a global index to characterize ...

ABSTRACT Although numerous prediction methods have been developed, scientific estimation of the spatiotemporal pattern of soil erosion at the watershed scale remains challenging. In this study, fallout radionuclides of 210Pbex and 137Cs were used to estimate average annual soil erosion and deposition in a Mollisol watershed in Northeast China ...

Definition of homogeneous fertility areas through factorial and geostatistical analysis
In a flat lot of 4 ha, with dry warm climate and Mollisols were determined the bulk density, pH and content of sand, silt, clay, organic matter, Ca, Mg, K and P, in the first 150mm of soil, doing a sampling in a semi-regular grid with cell size of 25 x ...

Decadal effects of fuel treatments and annual grass invasion on sagebrush ecosystem carbon stocks
Abstract Fuel treatments are implemented across large spatial scales in sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems of the US Intermountain West to limit wildfire risk and spread, but treatment effects on ecosystem carbon storage remain poorly understood. Fuel treatments can reduce aboveground carbon storage and may also influence belowground carbon storage ...

Abstract Measured activities of soil enzymes such as phosphomonoesterase (PHO) can be affected by when and where soils are sampled, and how soils are stored prior to analysis. While these factors have been evaluated individually, simultaneous assessment is needed to determine the relative importance of sampling decisions and sample storage for measured

Understanding cation exchange capacity through the landscape lens of the Busoga Catena, Uganda
Abstract This study identifies the parent material (PM) and examines cation exchange capacity (CEC) across the Busoga catena. In 2022 and 2023, we described 32 pedons and collected 147 samples. Laboratory analyses were particle size analysis, organic carbon (OC) content, pH, and CEC.
