ABSTRACT Background Understanding the relative importance of climatic, edaphic, and management controls on soil organic carbon (SOC) is essential for improving SOC prediction and land management in data‐scarce agroecosystems. Aim This study quantified SOC drivers across Southern African agroecosystems using 655 observations covering climatic variables,

ABSTRACT Background: Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) using silicate rock dust is a promising strategy for soil remineralization and carbon dioxide removal. However, its agronomic efficacy is highly dependent on soil properties. Aim: This study provides a comprehensive comparative analysis of the influence of soil type on the performance of rock dust ...

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.
