The Effect of Land Use Change on Soil Type and Clay Mineralogy in Safashahr Area, Fars Province

open access: yesمجله آب و خاک, 2015
Nowadays, changing the rangelands to agriculture and garden is common. To investigate the impact of land use change on the soils type and clay mineralogy, four land uses including rangeland with poor vegetation, agricultural land, new and old apple ...

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Response of soil health indicators to tillage is associated with soil mineralogy in maize-based agroecosystems across the U.S

open access: yesGeoderma
The sensitivity of soil health indicators to tillage can be strongly influenced by agroecosystem context, leading to inconsistent responses of soil health indicators to tillage practices across sites.

Effect of soil temperature and moisture on degradation of the oxyfluorfen herbicide

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
We have studied the combined effect of temperature and moisture on a soil contaminated with the oxyfluorfen herbicide at a dose of 4 l ha−1 in terms of the biochemical activity (dehydrogenase activity and ergosterol content) of said soil, as well as on ...

Methods of soil organic carbon determination in Brazilian savannah soils

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2014
Several methods exist for determining soil organic carbon, and each one has its own advantages and limitations. Consequently, a comparison of the experimental results obtained when these methods are employed is hampered, causing problems in the ...

An appraisal of nutrient supplies available for tree growth in a pumice soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Chemical analyses have confirmed and explained the results of an earlier pot trial in which the availability of major nutrients in six pumice ash layers of Kaingaroa silty sand was assessed by the growth of radiata pine seedlings. Almost all of the tree-

High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.

Impact-induced mixing generated the stratified soils of the Lunar South Pole Aitken Basin

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The Mg-pyroxene annulus in the South Pole–Aitken (SPA) basin holds crucial information about the lunar crustal evolution, yet its mineralogy and origin remain debate. Here we analyzed the mineralogy, exogenic ejecta, and soil evolution of the 2.8-billion-

Application of biostimulants obtained from brewing industry waste in greenhouse tomato (Solanum lycopersicum Mill. cv. Mina) crop

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
Biostimulants produced through enzymatic hydrolysis are agronomic tools of considerable interest, as they provide an alternative to the use of inorganic fertilisers. In this work, the effect of two biostimulants obtained from brewing industry by-products
