Digital images for assessing soil cover of crop plants [PDF]
, 2007 The main drawback by using crop soil cover in weed harrowing research is that it is assessed by visual scores, which are biased and context dependent. This problem may be solved by using digital image analysis.

Hot-Moments of Soil CO2 Efflux in a Water-Limited Grassland [PDF]
, 2018 The metabolic activity of water-limited ecosystems is strongly linked to the timing and magnitude of precipitation pulses that can trigger disproportionately high (i.e., hot-moments) ecosystem CO2 fluxes.

A simple reactive-transport model of calcite precipitation in soils and other porous media [PDF]
, 2015 Calcite formation in soils and other porous media generally occurs around a localised source of reactants, such as a plant root or soil macro-pore, and the rate depends on the transport of reactants to and from the precipitation zone as well as the ...
