Predicting greenhouse gas emissions and soil carbon from changing pasture to an energy crop. [PDF]
Bioenergy related land use change would likely alter biogeochemical cycles and global greenhouse gas budgets. Energy cane (Saccharum officinarum L.) is a sugarcane variety and an emerging biofuel feedstock for cellulosic bio-ethanol production.

FDR ECH2O sensor performance in Spodosols
Frequency domain reflectometry (FDR) is widely used to measure the soil water contents. However, the soil composition effects on FDR calibration has to be quantified to reduce the need for further calibration.

Association of Post-Barreiras and Barreiras Formation strata and influence on soil genesis, Southern Bahia – Brazil [PDF]
The term Post-Barreiras is a definition for sediments above the deposits of the Barreiras Formation, and the genesis of soils in these environments must be related to sedimentary deposition.

Field Incubation Studies on Nutrient Mineralization of Bagasse on Spodosols and Histosols in Florida
The addition of organic byproducts to soils is a vital source of essential nutrients for plant uptake. To reuse the nutrients effectively, there is a need to estimate the release patterns of nutrients from the byproducts.

Calcination as an alternative method to classify Spodosols on the second categorical level [PDF]
The classification of Spodosols on the second categorical level (suborder), according to the Brazilian Soil Classification System (SiBCS), is done by observing the colors of genetic horizons in the field.

Mounding technique improves physiological performance and yield of oil palm on Spodosols
Spodosols have been widely used for oil palm plantations, specifically in Kalimantan, Indonesia. However, they are sub-optimal for agriculture due to a lack of water and nutrient-holding capacity and a spodic layer that limits plant root development ...

Fungal Communities across an Edaphic Gradient in Central Borneo
To examine the role of soil properties in influencing tropical fungal communities, soils were collected from Barito Ulu in central Borneo across an edaphic gradient ranging from clay-rich ultisols to sandy spodosols and from the upper and lower horizons ...
