Comparative measurements of carbon dioxide fluxes from two nearby towers in a central Amazonian rainforest: the Manaus LBA site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Forests around Manaus have staged the oldest and the longest forest-atmosphere CO2 exchange studies made anywhere in the Amazon. Since July 1999 the exchange of CO2, water, and energy, as well as weather variables, have been measured almost continuously ...

Nitrogen fertilizer placement and its influence on snap bean production in North Florida

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract In sandy soils or areas with abundant rainfall, nutrients tend to leach from where plant roots grow. Nitrogen (N) is a mobile element that is consistently at risk of being lost to the environment. In the spring of 2023, a controlled‐release fertilizer (CRF) study with two locations was undertaken at the North Florida Research and Education ...

Critical roles of short‐range‐order minerals in shaping soil water retention curves in volcanic regions

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Predicting water retention is difficult for highly aggregated volcanic soils (Andisols) with heterogeneous pore size distribution. This paper aimed to examine how andic materials influence soil water retention based on soil composition. We compiled the data of water retention in the soils from literature with physicochemical properties and ...

Foliar nutrient levels of native tree species from Central Amazonia. 2. Campina

open access: yes, 1985
Adult leaves of 14 woody species were sampled in the campina at km 62 of the road Manaus - Caracaraí. The lamina were classified as to their size and analysed for N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Na. Comparing the foliar levels of the bioelements to relevant data for

Differential water and imidacloprid transport under unsaturated Florida citrus field conditions

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Citrus production in Florida declined in the past 20 years by >72% due to citrus greening disease which is vectored by Asian citrus psyllid (ACP). Extensive use of pesticides such as imidacloprid (IDP) to manage ACP raises concerns of environmental pollution to shallow groundwater in citrus orchards dominated by sandy soils.

Morphology, mineralogy and micromorphology of soils associated to summit depressions of the Northeastern Brazilian Coastal Plains Morfologia, mineralogia e micromorfologia de solos de depressões de topo de Tabuleiros Costeiros do Nordeste Brasileiro

open access: yesCiência e Agrotecnologia, 2012
The scarcity of comprehensive characterizations of soils associated to gentle summit depressions of the Northeastern Brazilian Coastal Plains justifies this work, which had as objective to provide basic information for the more diverse agricultural and ...
