Biomass Carbon in Harvest Residues of Winter Oilseed Rape Across Fertilizer N Rates: Implications for Carbon Input Estimations in Soil Carbon Models

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Reliable estimation of carbon (C) inputs from above‐ and belowground residues at different yield levels is crucial, as these inputs drive soil organic carbon (SOC) models for C accounting. Aims: This study quantifies C inputs from different components of winter oilseed rape (WOSR) and compares them with estimates from various ...

Assessment of Soil Erosion Over Six Decades in a Long‐Term Experiment Using Fallout 137Cs and RUSLE: A South American Case Study

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major global concern affecting agricultural productivity and land sustainability. This study investigates the magnitude and variability of soil erosion in a long‐term experiment (LTE) established in 1963 in Colonia, Uruguay, aiming to compare the performance of the 137Cs tracer technique and the RUSLE model across ...

Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Particle Size Distribution and Depth to Bedrock of Chinese Cultivated Soils: Implications for Soil Classification and Management

Agronomy, 2023
Although a number of studies have provided information on soil texture, soil classification, and depth to bedrock throughout China, few studies have combined this information, which is the basis for agricultural field management.

Research on the Presence of Phaeozems in the Suceava Plateau

Revista de Chimie, 2019
Phaeozems are in class cernisols and has a wide spread in the Suceava Plateau. These soils have been the objective of many pedo-geographical studies, being firstly interpreted as exhausted chernozems (Obrejeanu et al., 1958), as exhausted brown forest soils (Bucur, 1967), and then as pratozems or chernozems like soils (Florea and Muica, 1962 ...

Soil Carbon Sequestration Following Natural Vegetation Recovery on Abandoned European Lands: Review and Research Needs

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Environmental factors controlling soil organic carbon sequestration in abandoned European lands, and priority sites for future research across Europe. ABSTRACT Natural vegetation recovery of abandoned agricultural lands could play a significant role in combating climate change by enhancing carbon (C) sequestration over time in a passive and cost ...
