Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Linking hydrograph dynamics with transport velocities and biogeochemical responses remains a central challenge in watershed hydrology, yet it is critical for understanding nitrogen reactive transport and its implications for water quality. In this study, we combined high‐frequency measurements of stable water isotopes and nitrate concentration

Plant functional groups and root traits are linked to exudation rates of mature temperate trees
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2203-2220, July 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudation affects soil biogeochemistry profoundly, yet it is rarely quantified in mature, field‐grown trees and its controls are poorly understood. We measured rates of carbon (C) exudation in 11 tree species that exhibit divergent root traits, including ...

Selective sorption of dissolved organic carbon compounds by temperate soils. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Physico-chemical sorption onto soil minerals is one of the major processes of dissolved organic carbon (OC) stabilization in deeper soils. The interaction of DOC on soil solids is related to the reactivity of soil minerals, the chemistry of ...

Linking Plant and Microbial Traits to Soil Carbon for Reliable and Resilient Bioenergy Systems
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.Plant–microbe–soil interactions supporting productivity and soil carbon storage in bioenergy systems. Plants supply organic inputs that sustain microbial communities driving nutrient cycling, carbon stabilization, and soil aggregation. These interactions enhance soil structure and nutrient retention, supporting both biomass productivity and broader ...

Grass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 3, July-September 2026.ABSTRACT Semi‐natural grasslands are among the most plant‐rich ecosystems worldwide, providing multiple ecosystem services but requiring site‐specific management for their conservation. This study assessed short‐term dynamics of plant biodiversity, herbage production, pastoral value and soil CO2 emissions under contrasting management regimes in ...

Soil physical properties affect nematode counts in the Barnes soil series
Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Nematodes are important in soil food webs and are being considered in soil health frameworks. We evaluated nematode counts as a potentially rapid measure of land use effects on soil biology in a benchmark Mollisol. We assessed pedons (0–120 cm) from conventional, no‐till, and grassland fields in eastern North Dakota in October 2022.

Changes in soil test phosphorus are not predictable using fertilizer input and crop removal
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Volatile fertilizer prices have led to many producers and researchers exploring different immobile nutrient stratagems to increase the efficiency of fertilizer applications, leading to greater economic return. While many nutrient recommendations are based upon a soil test for that one season, for immobile nutrients such as phosphorus (P ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Soil and precipitation can drive divergence in plant populations, yet less is known about the potential for synergistic effects between soil and precipitation on reproductive traits. We characterized variation in flowering phenology across soil boundaries and along a precipitation gradient and experimentally evaluated how water limitation affects ...
