Dominant Species Drive Biomass and Diversity Responses to Nutrient Inputs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
In a mesic grassland co‐limited by nitrogen and phosphorus, responses in plant community diversity and particularly of dominant species do not always correspond to responses in aboveground net primary productivity and functional group biomass production.

Definition of homogeneous fertility areas through factorial and geostatistical analysis

open access: yesBoletín de Ciencias de la Tierra, 2016
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 ...

Dissimilar responses of fungal and bacterial communities to soil transplantation simulating abrupt climate changes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Both fungi and bacteria play essential roles in regulating soil carbon cycling. To predict future carbon stability, it is imperative to understand their responses to environmental changes, which is subject to large uncertainty.

Community‐based long‐term management to address reinvasion of restored grassland vernal wetlands

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Exotic annual grasses can dominate ecosystems by producing a thick layer of dead plant litter, hereafter “thatch,” which promotes the regeneration of exotic grasses and inhibits native plants. Vernal pool wetlands within a grassland matrix are threatened by these exotic annual grasses, meriting the need for long‐term management.

Soil Organic Matter Stabilization by Polyvalent Cations in a Buried Alkaline Soil

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Buried paleosols can store large quantities of organic carbon (C), much of which persists for millennia due to isolation from surface processes that promote decomposition. Subsoil organic matter (SOM) persistence is often enhanced by mineral associations and ionic conditions—particularly high clay content and polyvalent cations—that limit ...

Mollisol Productivity Under Two Management Levels

open access: yes, 1987
This article 'Mollisol Productivity Under Two Management Levels' appeared in the International Rice Research Newsletter series, created by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The primary objective of this publication was to expedite communication among scientists concerned with the development of improved technology for rice and for rice ...

Géophysique et dynamique holocène de plateaux palsiques à Kangiqsualujjuaq, Québec nordique [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Les plateaux palsiques étudiés sont localisés dans une vallée près de Kangiqsualujjuaq, le long de l'estuaire du George, à quelque 15 km du littoral de la baie d'Ungava.

Elevated moisture stimulates carbon loss from mineral soils by releasing protected organic matter

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The effect of soil moisture on microbial activity and soil carbon storage remains unclear. Here, via Mollisol incubation experiments, the authors show elevated soil moisture can accelerate total carbon loss by facilitating microbial access to previously ...

Soil physical quality of Mollisols quantified by a global index [PDF]

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2015
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 ...
