Extractability of slurry and fertilizer phopshorus in soil after repeated freezing [PDF]

, 2005
The potential effects of freezing on phosphorus (P) chemistry in Finnish soils are not well known. We studied the effects of multiple freeze-thaw cycles on soil P chemistry in a laboratory incubation experiment with one organic and one mineral surface ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Uncovering functional deterioration in the rhizosphere microbiome associated with post-green revolution wheat cultivars

Environmental Microbiome
Background During the Green Revolution, one of the biggest developments of wheat domestication was the development of new cultivars that respond well to fertilisers and produce higher yields on shorter stems to prevent lodging.

Fertigation with Fe-EDTA, Fe-DTPA, and Fe-EDDHA Chelates to Prevent Iron Chlorosis of Sensitive Species in High-pH Soilless Media

HortScience
Multiple studies have examined the use of chelates to correct pH-induced Fe chlorosis. Here we report the effects of three common chelates on prevention of Fe chlorosis in two sensitive species at high pH.

The Use of AIS Data for Identifying and Mapping Calcareous Soils in Western Nebraska [PDF]

, 1985
The identification of calcareous soils, through unique spectral responses of the vegetation to the chemical nature of calcareous soils, can improve the accuracy of delineating the boundaries of soil mapping units over conventional field techniques.

Sustainable Catalyst‐Free PLG Networks: Recyclability, Biodegradability, and Functional Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A catalyst‐additive free covalent adaptable network is developed from star‐shaped poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) cross‐linked with pyromellitic dianhydride, enabling internal carboxylic acid‐driven transesterification. The resulting biodegradable network exhibits mechanical robustness (Young's modulus ≈1.6 GPa), complete recyclability, rapid biodegradation

Self‐Sintering Ionogel Binder for Flexible, Recyclable, and Healable Printed Giant Magnetoresistive Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electronic waste has emerged as a major environmental challenge, driven by the massive consumption and a limited lifetime of modern electronic devices, stimulating the development of sustainable electronics. Here, an all‐biomaterial gelatin‐choline‐citric acid ([Ch][CA]) ionogel is developed as an active binder to realize self‐sintered ...
