Study on the stabilization mechanism of aeolian sandy soil formation by adding a natural soft rock

Open Geosciences, 2023
The study of the distribution of cementitious materials in soil aggregates is important for understanding the formation of aggregates in soil due to the addition of soft rock rich in clay.

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 ...

Evolution of the transport properties of soil aggregates and their relationship with soil organic carbon following land use changes [PDF]

, 2022
Aggregates are functional units to describe the impact of soil structural changes on physical and biogeochemical processes in soil. Both incubation and field experiments have shown that changing agricultural practices could reshape the intra-aggregate ...

Dissolved organic matter characteristics of soil aggregates on slopes covered by natural successional vegetations with different root structures

Geoderma
Vegetation restoration is a critical measure to control soil erosion and improve soil quality. However, limited research has examined how dissolved organic matter (DOM) within soil aggregates changes during natural vegetation succession.

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Impact of Integrated Rice-Crayfish Farming on Soil Aggregates and Organic Matter Distribution

Agronomy, 2023
This study evaluates the effects of a combined rice-crayfish farming model and compares this model with traditional paddy fields. The focus is on soil aggregate characteristics, organic matter content, and also the distribution of soil aggregates.

Hexosamines in Soil Aggregates [PDF]

Nature, 1963
RECENT experiments at this Station on water-stable soil aggregates in a Bridgehampton silt loam have indicated that quantity of soil organic matter is not a reliable index of efficiency in the formation and stabilization of aggregates1,2. These investigations involved soils in frames that had been in redtop–potato and red clover–potato rotations for a ...
