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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Estrutura de um nitossolo vermelho latossólico eutroférrico sob sistema plantio direto, preparo convencional e floresta Evaluation of the structure of a eutroferric red nitosol under no-tillage, conventional tillage and forest

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2009
Alterações estruturais causadas no solo pelos sistemas de manejo podem resultar em compactação e interferir no desenvolvimento radicular das culturas. Com o objetivo de avaliar os influxos do tipo de manejo sobre a estrutura do solo, por meio de métodos ...

Depth-Related Changes in Soil P-Acquiring Enzyme Activities and Microbial Biomass—The Effect of Agricultural Land Use/Plant Cover and Pedogenic Processes

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Although the phosphatase enzymes regulate phosphorus (P) turnover throughout the soil profile, at present, they are rarely studied and are less well understood in the deeper soil layers than in the surface horizons. Hence the changes in P-associated soil

Effects of Tea Plant Varieties with High- and Low-Nutrient Efficiency on Nutrients in Degraded Soil

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Tea plants are widely planted in tropical and subtropical regions globally, especially in southern China. The high leaching and strong soil acidity in these areas, in addition to human factors (e.g., tea picking and inappropriate fertilization methods ...

Spatial Variation in Soil Fungal Communities across Paddy Fields in Subtropical China

open access: yesmSystems, 2020
Fungi underpin almost all terrestrial ecosystem functions, yet our understanding of their community ecology lags far behind that of other organisms. Here, red paddy soils in subtropical China were collected across a soil depth profile, comprising 0-to-10-

Coupling Bacterial Community Assembly to Microbial Metabolism across Soil Profiles

open access: yesmSystems, 2020
Soil microbial community assembly is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of microbial communities that regulate ecosystem-level functioning. The relative contributions of stochastic and deterministic processes to microbial community assembly remain ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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?

Effect of Long-Term Organic Amendment Application on the Vertical Distribution of Nutrients in a Vertisol

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Soil nutrients in deep soils are important for nutrient cycling and plant growth. Organic amendments have been widely used for enhancing soil health and crop yield.

Bacteria with Different Assemblages in the Soil Profile Drive the Diverse Nutrient Cycles in the Sugarcane Straw Retention Ecosystem

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
Straw retention, an alternative to artificial fertilization, commonly mitigates soil degradation and positively affects soil fertility. In this study, we investigated the succession of soil bacteria during two sugarcane straw retention treatments ...
