Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Soil Humic Substances and Root Exudates: Key Factors Modulating Cadmium Mobility in Paddy Soils Under Organic Fertilization

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy fields poses a high potential risk of environmental exposure. Organic fertilizer application can promote the efflux of rice root exudates, increase soil organic matter, and induce changes in Cd activity in rice fields.

Coupling of Physical Protection and Molecular Composition Drives Carbon Sequestration Divergence in Soils Planted With Different Tea Varieties

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tea plantations represent significant carbon (C) sinks in agricultural landscapes, yet how variety‐specific organic inputs are associated with the molecular composition and stability of soil organic carbon (SOC) within aggregate hierarchies remains unclear.

Evaluation of methods for the analysis of oxygen and carbon dioxide in water, sediment, litter, and soil

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Choosing an appropriate analyzer to measure concentrations of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during biogeochemical cycling studies can be difficult, considering the range of options available. While several studies examine the abilities of specific analyzers, comparison of multiple analyzers and environmental sample types is lacking.

Improved Corrosion Resistance of a Micro‐Alloyed Carbon Steel Assessed by Multi‐Element Electrical Resistance Probes and Coupons in Natural Seawater and Soil

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Multi‐element electrical resistance probes fabricated from industrial carbon steels enable real‐time corrosion monitoring in natural seawater and soil. A micro‐alloyed grade (AMLoCor) demonstrates up to 2.4 times improved uniform corrosion resistance over conventional S355 GP steel.

Time trends & mechanism of soil acidification

open access: yes
The effects of acid atmospheric deposition on forest ecosystems have been studied intensively in the past two decades. Measurements of element budgets in forested ecosystems throughout the world have shown that acid deposition may deplete stores of exchangeable base cations in the soil, decrease the soil pH, increase rates of mineral weathering, and ...

Ecosystem retrogression enhances cross‐domain microbial stability and increases the genetic potential for nutrient cycling

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecosystem retrogression drives nutrient depletion, reduced productivity, and profound reorganization of soil microbial communities. Using amplicon sequencing and genome‐resolved metagenomics, we examined how cross‐domain microbial networks and functional gene potential respond to long‐term phosphorus and nitrogen limitation along the well ...
