Global-scale no-tillage impacts on soil aggregates and associated carbon and nitrogen concentrations in croplands: A meta-analysis.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
No-tillage treatment, including no-tillage with straw retention (NTS) and without (NT), has been widely used as an efficient and sustainable alternative to conventional tillage with straw retention (CTS) and without (CT) and greatly affects soil physical

Effects of biochar additions on the mechanical stability of soil aggregates and their role in the dynamic renewal of aggregates in slope ecological restoration.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Mechanical stability of soil aggregates is important for resisting external disturbances in slope soils. Biochar (BC) is not conducive to the formation of mechanical-stable soil aggregates.

Silicon fertilizers, humic acid and their impact on physicochemical properties, availability and distribution of heavy metals in soil and soil aggregates.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
It has been confirmed that silicon (Si) fertilizer and humic acid (HA) could effectively decrease the heavy metals in soil. Nonetheless, the impact of these additives on soil aggregate characteristics was ignored. Therefore, the effects of Si fertilizer,

Microplastics trapped in soil aggregates of different land-use types: A case study of Loess Plateau terraces, China.

Environmental Pollution, 2022
Land-use types may affect soil aggregates' stability and organic carbon (OC) distribution characteristics, but little is known about the effects on the distribution characteristics of microplastics (MPs) in the aggregates.

Land use change impacts on red slate soil aggregates and associated organic carbon in diverse soil layers in subtropical China.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
The conversion of natural forests to other land use types generally has a significant influence on soil aggregation and associated soil organic carbon (SOC) concentration, depending on soil depth.

Maize straw and its biochar affect phosphorus distribution in soil aggregates and are beneficial for improving phosphorus availability along the soil profile

European Journal of Soil Science, 2021
Return of crop straw and its biochar to the agricultural field decreases pressure on phosphorus (P) resources and reduces leaching and P runoff. We conducted a 5‐year field trial from 2013 to 2017 to study the capability of maize straw and its biochar to

Soil aggregates are key factors that regulate erosion-related carbon loss in citrus orchards of southern China: Bare land vs. grass-covered land

, 2021
Water erosion induces a wide variation in organic carbon (OC) loss in orchard agroecosystems due to high anthropogenic disturbance. Grass cover, a common agricultural practice, can both suppress OC transport by reducing erosive rainfall and runoff, and ...

Fungal alpha diversity influences stochasticity of bacterial and fungal community assemblies in soil aggregates in an apple orchard

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment. Applied Soil Ecology, 2021
Understanding the drivers of variations in the microbial community in response to different soil aggregates and agricultural practices is important in ecology.

Stability of artificial soil aggregates for cut slope restoration: A case study from the subalpine zone of southwest China

, 2021
The stability of soil aggregates is regarded as the key factor for soil erosion resistance on cut slopes of engineering works in serious debris flow disaster areas. Information on the stability of soil aggregates and related physicochemical properties on
