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.

Maps of the estimated root nitrogen concentration in the < 0.5‐mm‐diameter classes of 20 woody species based on the imaging spectroscopy using the shortwave infrared spectral region. Summary Tree fine‐root morphological, anatomical, and chemical traits are important to reflect belowground resource acquisition strategies to support tree growth, but ...

Conservation practices in an East African catchment dramatically cut sediment (80%) and phosphorus (76%) loads but are markedly less effective on nitrogen (8% reduction) due to legacy groundwater nitrate, revealing a critical trade‐off between water quality and quantity.

This paper highlights the role of groundwater inputs to the river system during flood events in diluting suspended sediment concentration, in two small badland catchments with contrasting vegetation cover. The findings underline the importance of isolating the surface runoff component to better understand and prioritise hydrosedimentary processes ...

Changes in soil organic carbon and soil aggregation due to deforestation for smallholder management in the Brazilian semi-arid region. [PDF]
The Brazilian semi-arid region has currently approximately 33.3 million hectares occupied by agriculture, and the inadequate land use and management practices are still predominant, which have been associated with the soil degradation process. Therefore,

Tree species diversity drives above‐ground carbon sequestration through light‐related trait shifts
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Functional traits can vary in response to tree species mixing, which in turn might influence biomass production and, consequently, carbon (C) sequestration in diverse forests.

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa
ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and
