Biochar decreases nutrient leaching in KCl-fertilized Podzols grown with black mucuna [PDF]
Podzols are highly sandy soils, in which elements, such as potassium, needed by crops, are easily leached. Studies have indicated that biochar can contribute to increasing cation exchange capacity of the soil, which can improve the retention of bases ...

The significance of organic carbon and nutrient export from peatland-dominated landscapes subject to disturbance, a stoichiometric perspective [PDF]
The terrestrial-aquatic interface is a crucial environment in which to consider the fate of exported terrestrial carbon in the aquatic system. Here the fate of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) may be controlled by nutrient availability.

Umbrisols at Lower Altitudes, Case Study from Borská lowland (Slovakia)
Umbrisols generally develop in a cool and humid climate. Therefore, occurrence of these soils in the Borská lowland of southwestern Slovakia is very uncommon, and this inspired the aim of this paper: Analysis of the natural conditions suitable for ...

Les podzols sont des sols acides de milieux forestiers caractérisés par l'accumulation de fer (Fe) et d'aluminium (Al) dans l'horizon B (horizon B podzolique). Ils couvrent de vastes étendues des zones boréales et tempérées humides et sont associés à des

Some Features of Cambisols Soil-forming Process from Training and Experimental Forest Range (TEFR) „Petrohan” Region. [PDF]
Dystric/eutric Cambisols diagnostic features from TEFR Petrohan were investigated in the present study, which morphologically corresponded to Podzols. Diagnostic horizons were investigated to establish presence or absence of podsolization process and to ...

Airborne contamination of forest soils by carbonaceous particles from industrial coal processing [PDF]
In the German Ruhr-area industrial coal processing emitted large amounts of carbonaceous particles for a century until 1970. Our objectives were to detect the presence of airborne carbonaceous particles and assess their impact on the chemical structure ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...
