Short- and Long-Term Effects of Lime and Gypsum Applications on Acid Soils in a Water-Limited Environment: 2. Soil Chemical Properties

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Soil acidity or aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major limitation to crop production. In this paper, we examine the effects of surface-applied lime and gypsum on soil profile chemical properties that affect Al toxicity in short-term (1 year), medium-term (2 ...

The effect of renovation of long-term temperate grassland on N2O emissions and N leaching from contrasting soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
pre-printRenovation of long-term grassland is associated with a peak in soil organic N mineralisation which, coupled with diminished plant N uptake can lead to large gaseous and leaching N losses.

Physics of the Soil Medium OrganizationPart 1: Thermodynamic Formulation of the Pedostructure Water Retention and Shrinkage Curves

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2014
The equations used in soil physics to characterize the hydro-physical properties of the soil medium cannot be other than empirical since they do not take into account the multi-scale functional organization of the soil medium that is described in ...

Does functional soil microbial diversity contribute to explain within-site plant beta-diversity in an alpine grassland and a dehesa meadow in Spain? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Questions: Once that the effects of hydrological and chemical soil properties have been accounted for, does soil microbial diversity contribute to explain change in plant community structure (i.e. within-site beta-diversity)?
