Variations in radiocarbon ages of various organic fractions in core sediments from Erhai Lake, SW China [PDF]
Radiocarbon dating was performed for the extracted organic fractions (cellulose-rich and humic acid fractions of plant fragment; fulvic acid, humic acid and humin fractions of humus substance) and shell from core sediments of the Erhai Lake, SW China ...

Preferential attachment of Escherichia coli to different particle size fractions of an agricultural grassland soil. [PDF]
This study reports on the attachment preference of a faecally derived bacterium, Escherichia coli, to soil particles of defined size fractions. In a batch sorption experiment using a clay loam soil it was found that 35% of introduced E.

Evaluation of phosphorus mobility in soil using different extraction methods
Soil samples (from Czech and German long-term field experiments) were used to estimate different soil phosphorus (P) fractions. More than 200 topsoil (0-30 cm) samples from different fertilizing treatments were taken.

Soil-aggregate phosphorus and its correlation with edaphic properties in a mountainous agricultural area of southeastern Brazil [PDF]
Dynamics of phosphorus (P) distribution, availability, and accumulation in reservoirs are influenced by land use and management. This study aimed to evaluate the total P (TP) content in soil aggregates formed under different vegetation cover types and ...

Study of the trace metal ion influence on the turnover of soil organic matter in cultivated contaminated soils [PDF]
The role of metals in the behaviour of soil organic matter (SOM) is not well documented. Therefore, we investigated the influence of metals (Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd) on the dynamic of SOM in contaminated soils where maize (C4 plant) replaced C3 cultures. Three

Changes in the Soil Phosphorus Supply with Rice Straw Return in Cold Region
Most phosphorus (P) in soil exists in nonlabile forms, leading to poor soil P supply capacity and limiting crop growth. This study evaluated the effect of 10 years of rice straw return on rice yield, soil P budget, P fractions, and phosphatase activity ...
