Variation in Soil Aggregate Stability Due to Land Use Changes from Alpine Grassland in a High-Altitude Watershed

open access: yesLand, 2023
Land use change affects soil aggregate composition and stability, which impacts soil structure and health. To reveal how land use change impacted soil aggregates of alpine grassland in a high-altitude watershed, soil samples from 161 sites including ...

Interacting Effects of Land Use Type, Soil Attributes, and Environmental Factors on Aggregate Stability

open access: yesLand, 2023
Soil erosion and surface pollution near reservoirs can adversely affect water quality and safety. Soil aggregate stability is an important predictor of soil water loss and erosion resistance that is strongly influenced by land use.

Regulation of soil organic carbon stock with physical properties in alluvial soils of Bihar

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2022
Soil temperature and water content govern the breakdown of soil organic matter (SOM), which has a large impact on SOC storage. Apparently soil organic carbon is an excellent indicator of soil health.

Responses of Soil Labile Organic Carbon on Aggregate Stability across Different Collapsing-Gully Erosion Positions from Acric Ferralsols of South China

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Soil labile organic carbon (LOC) is a valuable and sensitive parameter of the changes in soil carbon (C) pools and further affects soil structural stability.

Nitrogen addition increases the contents of glomalin-related soil protein and soil organic carbon but retains aggregate stability in a Pinus tabulaeformis forest [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background Glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) and soil organic carbon (SOC) contribute to the formation and stability of soil aggregates, but the mechanism by which global atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition changes soil aggregate stability by altering

Soil aggregate structure, stability, and stoichiometric characteristics in a smelter-impacted soil under phytoremediation

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Smelter-impacted soils often result in soil degradation and the destruction of the soil structure. Although soil aggregate typically plays a crucial role in soil structure, the influence of phytoremediation on soil aggregate structure stability and ...

Aggregate stability affects carbon sequestration potential of different tropical soils

open access: yesAnnals of Tropical Research, 2018
Aggregate stability and carbon (C) sequestration in soils are closely related phenomena. However, high aggregate stability does not always ensure high carbon sequestration to some soil types since other binding agents could dominate other than carbon ...

Aggregate-Size Stability Distribution and Soil Stability

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, 2004
A new theoretical and experimental framework that permits an accurate determination of aggregate‐size stability distribution is presented. The size‐stability distribution in addition to estimating aggregate‐size distribution distinguishes between amounts of stable and unstable macroaggregates (>250 μm).

Causes clarification of the soil aggregates stability on mulched soil [PDF]

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2022
Soil aggregates have great effects on soil properties and soil functions. Mulching (organic inputs) has been known as a factor influencing soil aggregate stability. Our study aimed to reveal the causes of the higher stability of soil aggregates under organic mulches.
