Soil, competition, and niche shifts shape the floral mosaic of an annual plant diversity hotspot

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Premise Plant species with affinity for harsh substrates often have well‐defined edaphic (soil) niches and are ideal for exploring questions of community assembly. Vertic clay soils are chemically and physically challenging to plant establishment and productivity, and annual plant communities associated with these soils of the San Joaquin ...

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

Scientia 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 ...

Climatically driven loss of calcium in steppe soil as a sink for atmospheric carbon [PDF]

, 2008
During the last several thousand years the semi‐arid, cold climate of the Russian steppe formed highly fertile soils rich in organic carbon and calcium (classified as Chernozems in the Russian system).

Interactions Between Dissolved Organic Carbon and Aluminium Activity in Tropical and Temperate No‐Till Agroecosystems

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Conceptual model of depth‐stratified soil acidification under long‐term no‐till in temperate (Washington, USA) and tropical (Brazilian Oxisol) systems. Nitrogen inputs promote surface acidification (↓pH) and increased Al3+ activity, while lime or silicate amendments modify base cation dynamics. Increased DOC–Al complexation reduces free Al3+ and alters

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 ...
