Characteristics of Rendzina soils in Serbia and their WRB classification [PDF]
According to the Serbian official soil classification system, Rendzina is a soil type with an A-AC-C-R profile, developed on parent rock containing more than 20% of calcareous material (except soils with an A-R profile on hard pure limestone or dolomite).

The activity and kinetic parameters of oxidoreductases in phaeozem in response to long-term fertiliser management [PDF]
This study describes the effects of balanced versus nutrient-deficient fertilisation on soil nutrient content and selected oxidoreductase activity and kinetic parameters in a long-term (28 years) field experiment conducted using a phaeozem type soil in the Jilin Province of northeast China.

ABSTRACT Background The availability of fertile land suitable for agriculture is limited. In the European Union, political demand for self‐sufficiency in staple food production currently competes with increasing ambitions for nature restoration and green energy. Meanwhile, the overall agricultural area shrinks due to land sealing.

Abstract The temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition (Q10) governs the fate of soil carbon under global warming. Although erosion redistributes soil carbon at scales comparable to the terrestrial carbon sink, how erosion reshapes Q10 across large regional scales remains elusive.

Abstract The role of biochar in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from tropical soils, especially when combined with compost, is still not adequately researched. This study evaluated the effects of oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) biochar applied at 10 and 20 t ha−1 (B10 and B20), compost at 20 t ha−1 (CP20) and in combination (B10CP20 and ...

Based on spatial mapping of SOC and MAOC, this study integrated two different soil carbon sequestration potential assessments into a unified classification framework. The resulting four categories identified priority areas for carbon farming and soil protection, providing a practical tool to support targeted land management and effective climate ...

ABSTRACT Sodium pyrophosphate (NaPPi) is widely used in wet‐chemical extraction methods for assessing organo‐mineral interactions (OMIs) in soils. However, its effectiveness remains debated due to challenges in achieving specific solubilization and issues such as peptization and solubilization of organic carbon (OC) not directly associated with ...

Improved production systems for common bean on Phaeozem soil in South-Central Uganda [PDF]
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important grain legume in Uganda. Beans managed under conventional systems range in yield from 500 to 800 kg ha-1, with a yield gap of about 75%. The objective of this study was to compare the productivity and net profitability of four bean cultivars grown under three management systems on Phaeozem soil ...

Nutrients, Metals, and Carbon in Soils Irrigated With Treated Versus Untreated Wastewater
Transitioning from untreated to treated wastewater irrigation reduced soluble N and P but enhanced Cr, Fe and Ni mobilization in long‐term wastewater‐irrigated Mezquital Valley soils, highlighting soil‐type‐dependent effects. ABSTRACT Background Reuse of wastewater for irrigation can mitigate pressure on water resources and support closing nutrient ...
