Soil pH: Techniques, challenges and insights from a global dataset

European Journal of Soil Science
Soil pH is a critical parameter influencing numerous soil properties including nutrient cycling, microbial activity, inorganic carbon and metal speciation and criteria for classifying acid sulfate soils and soils with reactive aluminium (Podzols and ...

Will European soil-monitoring networks be able to detect changes in topsoil organic carbon content? [PDF]

, 2008
Within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, articles 3.3 and 3.4 stipulate that some voluntary activities leading to an additional carbon (C) sequestration in soils could be accounted as C sinks in national greenhouse gas ...

The Combined Effects of Water Management and Biochar Amendment on Soil Water Content and pH of Paddy Soil

Guan'gai paishui xuebao, 2021
【Background】 Traditional rice production in paddy fields in subtropical regions in China is to keep the soil surface flooded. This is not only a waste of water resources but also acidifies the soil and leaks agrochemicals to water bodies. Improving water

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Response of Eggplant to Integrated Approaches for Sustainable Reclamation and Improvement of a Cheringa Hot Spot of Acid Sulfate Soil [PDF]

, 2008
The application of basic slag (BS20 and BS30: basic slag 20 and 30 t ha-1) and aggregate size (A20 and A30: aggregate sizes of soil less than 20 and 20-30 mm) and different techniques (Tech 1: pyrite at top, jarosite at middle, and top soil at the bottom

Spatial variation of soil acidification in the karst area of northern Guangdong: A case in peak cluster depression and karst trough valley landforms

Carsologica Sinica, 2022
The process of soil acidification is very slow under the natural conditions, which generally takes decades or even hundreds of years. However, since the Industrial Revolution, human activities have greatly accelerated the process of soil acidification ...

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

The Transformation of Agriculture in Brazil Through Development and Adoption of Zero Tillage Conservation Agriculture

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2014
The soil conservation movement in Brazil has been a major driving force in the continuing search for agricultural farming systems that are more sustainable than what we have today, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas.

Potential solution in sustainable agriculture: improving the pH and pH buffering capacity of gray soil Acrisol from Cu Chi, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam using biochar combined with bentonite

Sains Tanah: Journal of Soil Science and Agroclimatology, 2023
The acidification of agricultural soils should be avoided, and low pH soils should be corrected for better productivity. Soil improvement by applying biochar from agricultural byproducts combined with bentonite, a rich source in Vietnam, is a trend in ...
