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

Aggregate-Size Stability Distribution and Soil Stability
Soil 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).

Short-Term Dynamics of Soil Aggregate Stability in the Field [PDF]
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2014 Aggregate stability is a key property affecting the movement and storage of water, seedling emergence, and soil sensitivity to erosion. Many studies have shown that aggregate stability changes through time. Field monitor- ing studies performed with a relatively large (monthly) time step showed the seasonal trend of aggregate stability. However, shorter

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

Biocrust-linked changes in soil aggregate stability along a climatic gradient in the Chilean Coastal Range [PDF]
SOIL, 2022 Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) composed of cyanobacteria, bacteria, algae, fungi, lichens, and bryophytes stabilize the soil surface. This effect has mainly been studied in arid climates, where biocrusts constitute the main biological agent to ...

Post-farming land restoration schemes exhibit higher soil aggregate stability and organic carbon: Evidence in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, China [PDF]
, 2023 The Three Gorges Reservoir Area was dominated by a farming landscape but has been the target of restorative land management schemes over recent decades, wherein croplands have been converted to forests or citrus woodlands run by commercial enterprises or,
