The pH optimum of soil exoenzymes adapt to long term changes in soil pH [PDF]
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2019 Soil exoenzymes released by microorganisms break down organic matter and are crucial in regulating C, N and P cycling. Soil pH is known to influence enzyme activity, and is also a strong driver of microbial community composition; but little is known about how alterations in soil pH affect enzymatic activity and how this is mediated by microbial ...

Nature, 1971 THE purpose of this note is to call attention to the fact that usual methods of measuring soil pH1 seriously underestimate the pH of very acid soils, such as those of coal mine spoils2, cat clays3 and solfataras4, in which acidity is due to the presence of free sulphuric acid. Standard methods for measuring soil pH involve making a slurry of soil with (

Soil pH Mapping with an On-The-Go Sensor [PDF]
Sensors, 2011 Soil pH is a key parameter for crop productivity, therefore, its spatial variation should be adequately addressed to improve precision management decisions. Recently, the Veris pH ManagerTM, a sensor for high-resolution mapping of soil pH at the field scale, has been made commercially available in the US.

Bacterial pH-optima for growth track soil pH, but are higher than expected at low pH
, 2011 One of the most influential factors determining the growth and composition of soil bacterial communities is pH. However, soil pH is often correlated with many other factors, including nutrient availability and plant community, and causality among factors
