Soil organic carbon mobility in equatorial podzols: soil column experiments [PDF]
Transfer of organic carbon from topsoil horizons to deeper horizons and to the water table is still little documented, in particular in equatorial environments, despite the high primary productivity of the evergreen forest. Due to its complexing capacity,

Impact of Soil Amendments on the Hydraulic Conductivity of Boreal Agricultural Podzols
Hydraulic properties of soil are the basis for understanding the flow and transport through the vadose zone. It has been demonstrated that different soil amendments can alter the soil properties affecting soil hydrology.

Microbial biomass-C determined using CaCl2 and K2SO4 as extraction reagents
Microbial biomass-C [MBC] was determined by re-hydration [RHD] technique using two very similar salt solutions in dissociation potency (0.5 mol/l K2SO4 [MBC-K] and 0.01 mol/l CaCl2 [MBC-Ca]) in forest, grassland, arable Cambisols [Inceptisols] and ...

Deep plant-derived carbon storage in Amazonian podzols [PDF]
Equatorial podzols are soils characterized by thick sandy horizons overlying more clayey horizons. Organic matter produced in the topsoil is transferred in depth through the sandy horizons and accumulate at the transition, at a depth varying from 1 to ...
