Soil Carbon Dynamics Reshaped by Ancient Carbon Quantification. [PDF]
The knowledge of soil organic carbon (SOC) time turnover, in order to estimate the amount of additional carbon that can be stored in soils, is a key point to elaborate a strategy to mitigate climate change. Many studies dealing with this issue use radiocarbon measurements but do not consider the occurrence of ancient organic carbon depleted in ...

Site-Specific Drivers of Land-Use Change Effects on Organic Carbon in German Agriculture and Forest Soils. [PDF]
Land‐use change—for example, turning cropland into forest—alters soil organic carbon (SOC) storage to different degrees depending on soil type. Data from the German national agricultural and forest soil inventories and new modeling techniques show that, while most of this SOC change occurs in the topsoil, 30% occurs below 30 cm depth.

Cover Crop Root Channels Promote Bacterial Adaptation to Drought in the Maize Rhizosphere. [PDF]
In this study, we examine the structural and functional changes in the bacterial communities in the rhizosphere of a summer cash crop (maize) that reuses root channels from winter cover crops to improve access to subsoil water and nutrient resources and address threats posed by the increased frequency of droughts.

Fertilization restructures nematode assemblages by modifying soil pH in croplands of Northeast China
Fertilization is an effective measure to ensure crop yield and food security in modern intensive agriculture. However, the long-term application of mineral fertilizers may lead to soil acidification, consequently affecting soil organisms.

Spatial distribution characteristics of phaeozem in Songliao Plain based on RS [PDF]
Phaeozem is one kind of scarce resources on the earth. Due to the restrictions of natural factors and the influence of human activities over the years, phaeozem degradation has become increasingly serious. Based on images of the ASTER in 2006 and the ETM+ in 2000 in this paper, the phaeozem organic matter content which is greater than 2 % was obtained ...
