High‐Resolution Soil Total Phosphorus Mapping for the Conterminous USA Using Machine Learning
Abstract Accurate estimates of soil total phosphorus (TP) concentrations are essential for sustainable nutrient management, food security, and water quality protection. This study predicts and maps the spatial distribution of TP in the top 5 cm and C horizon of soils across the conterminous USA (CONUS) using data from the Geochemical and Mineralogical ...

Biological P cycling is influenced by the form of P fertilizer in an Oxisol
Phosphate rock (PR) is an alternative fertilizer to increase the P content of P-deficient weathered soils. We evaluated the effects of fertilizer form on indicators of biological cycling of P using an on-farm trial on a Rhodic Kandiudox in western Kenya.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mixed dipterocarp lowland tropical rain forests on Oxisols and Ultisols and heath forests on Spodosols are considered distinct vegetation types in Borneo. Here we present the endmember hypothesis of ecosystem diversification, which describes a continuum of forest ...

Properties of iron oxides in some new caledonian oxisols
Abstract Oxisols from two toposequences of New Caledonia formed from peridotite, consist essentially of Fe oxides (goethite, hematite, maghemite). These Fe oxides were characterized by their mineralogy, crystal size and morphology, Al substitution, thermal behaviour and dissolution kinetics in 6 M HCl at 25°C.

Greenhouse gases (GHGs) resulting from human activities significantly impact crop production and agricultural sustainability, necessitating innovative solutions to mitigate their effects. One promising approach is employing biochar for GHG mitigation, providing a potential means to offset emissions and enhance crop productivity sustainably.

Nickel Effects on Growth and Phytolith Yield of Grasses in Contaminated Soils
Nickel (Ni) is extremely toxic to plants at high concentrations. Phytoliths have the potential to sequester the heavy metals absorbed by plants and act as a detoxification mechanism for the plant.
