Estimating Soil Compaction Risk at Regional Scales Using Meteorological Data and Soil Spectroscopy
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil compaction is a significant form of soil degradation in Europe, reducing agricultural productivity, limiting carbon sequestration and increasing greenhouse gases emissions. In response, the forthcoming European Union Soil Monitoring and Resilience Law requires spatial assessment of topsoil and subsoil compaction risk at district, that is,

Fen fertilization with potash in the light of tests at Leteensuo experimental station
Agricultural and Food Science, 1960 On the fen area of the Experimental Station of Leteensuo, with a peat layer consisting of forest sedge peat, potassium fertilization produced a considerable increase of the hay crop yield on the clayed as well as the unclayed bog, when phosphate ...

Impact of Nitrogen Deposition on Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling in Peatlands Under Land‐Use Change
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition significantly alters carbon and N dynamics in peatlands by affecting microbial processes, enhancing greenhouse gas emissions and nutrient leaching into adjacent waters. However, how peatland conversion for agriculture and forestry influences the fate of added N under elevated atmospheric deposition remains ...

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Understanding community assembly for wild species in anthropogenic settings has become increasingly important as biodiversity and ecosystem services are threatened by development pressures. Urban hardscape habitats such as parking lots are widespread, extreme, terrestrial anthropogenic environments that influence plant community assembly by way of ...

The effect of claying upon the settling of the soil surface on cultivated Sphagnum bogs
Agricultural and Food Science, 1960 The present investigation concerns a Sphagnum bog area that has been under cultivation for 35 years. According to the results, the effect of the claying during this time has been the settling of the surface of the soil on an average 12.5 cm more than in ...

Response of specific leaf area to light: comparative study of a large species set
Oikos, EarlyView.Specific leaf area (SLA) is a commonly used proxy for the leaf economy spectrum in plants, separating species with low‐cost leaves (in terms of carbon) with short lifespan and hence fast turnover from species with high‐cost and long‐lived leaves. While SLA is used mainly for interspecific comparisons, it also varies within species both ontogenetically ...
