Mapping Topsoil Total Nitrogen Using Random Forest and Modified Regression Kriging in Agricultural Areas of Central China

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Accurate understanding of spatial distribution and variability of soil total nitrogen (TN) is critical for the site-specific nitrogen management. Based on 4337 newly obtained soil observations and 33 covariates, this study applied the random forest (RF ...

P-equilibrium fertilization in an intensive dairy farming system: effects on soil-P status, crop yield and P leaching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the coming decade, European dairy farms are obliged to realize a balance between phosphor (P) inputs to their farmland (in inorganic fertilizers and manure) and outputs (in crop products), the so-called P-equilibrium fertilization.

Plant nutrient-acquisition strategies drive topsoil microbiome structure and function.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Plant nutrient acquisition strategies drive soil processes and vegetation performance, but their effect on the soil microbiome remains poorly understood. This knowledge is important to predict the shifts in microbial diversity and functions to increasing

Isolation and Characterization of Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria in Top and Subsoil of selected Mechanic Workshops in Benin City Metropolis, Nigeria

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2017
The isolation of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria in topsoil and subsoil samples of selected mechanic workshops located in the Benin metropolis was carried out. The highest and lowest bacterial counts in topsoil samples were found out to be 2.94 x 106 CFU/

Interactions between metals and soil organic matter in various particle size fractions of soil contaminated with waste water [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Only scarce field studies concern the consequences of natural soil organic matter (SOM) and metal interactions on SOM dynamics in soils. We investigated the interactions of four metals (Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd) with the SOM associated to five different size ...

Mapping LUCAS topsoil chemical properties at European scale using Gaussian process regression

open access: yesGeoderma, 2019
This paper presents the second part of the mapping of topsoil properties based on the Land Use and Cover Area frame Survey (LUCAS). The first part described the physical properties (Ballabio et al., 2016) while this second part includes the following ...
