Relationship between soil carbon sequestration and the ability of soil aggregates to transport dissolved oxygen [PDF]

, 2021
A key finding in soil carbon studies over the past decade is that soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization is not controlled by its molecular complexity or adsorption to clay, but by its physicochemical protection including occlusion in aggregates and ...

Soil Fragmentation and Friability. Effects of Soil Water and Soil Management [PDF]

, 2002
Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in most tillage operations in order to create a soil environment favourable for crop establishment and growth. Soils vary around the world from those exhibiting a self-mulching nature to those of a hardsetting nature ...

Unveiling the age and origin of biogenic aggregates produced by earthworm species with their NIRS fingerprint in a subalpine meadow of Central Pyrenees.

PLoS ONE, 2020
In this study the near-infrared reflectance (NIR) spectra signals (750-2,500 nm) of soil samples was compared with the NIR signals of the biogenic aggregates produced in the lab by three earthworm species, i.e., Aporrectodea rosea (Savigny 1826 ...

Forest Conversion and Soil Depth Can Modify the Contributions of Organic and Inorganic Colloids to the Stability of Soil Aggregates

, 2022
The stability of soil aggregates is critical for maintaining soil structures and is positively correlated with soil resident organic and inorganic colloids.

Multi-level assessment of soil quality – linking reductionistic and holistic methodologies [PDF]

, 2000
Soil quality is often used as a qualitative, general term. However, quantification is an important feature of the scientific approach to nature. On the other hand, addressing specific soil parameters as indicators of soil quality includes a reduction of ...

Effects of Nitrogen Addition on Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency of Soil Aggregates in Abandoned Grassland on the Loess Plateau of China

, 2022
Soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) plays a crucial role in terrestrial C cycling. However, how microbial CUE responds to nitrogen addition and its mechanisms in soil aggregates from abandoned grassland systems remains poorly understood.

Linking Soil Bacterial Communities to Soil Aggregates after Afforestation in a Karst Rocky Desertification Region

, 2023
Afforestation influences soil aggregates and the soil microenvironment, and it also affects soil bacterial communities. However, the interactions between soil aggregation, soil properties, and the bacterial community that occur following afforestation ...

Composition of Soil Bacterial and Nematode Communities within Soil Aggregates in a Kiwifruit Orchard under Cover Crop Treatment

, 2023
Soil, which exhibits difference in nutrient contents and aggregate sizes, provides spatially distinct habitats for biota. Cover crops influence the compositions of soil organism communities, playing an indispensable role in regulation of underground food

Use of X‐ray microcomputed tomography for characterizing earthworm‐derived belowground soil aggregates [PDF]

, 2020
Soil structure is closely linked to biological activities. However, identifying, describing and quantifying soil aggregates remain challenging. X-ray microcomputed tomography (X-ray μCT) provides a detailed view of the physicalstructure at a spatial
