Non-microbial methane emissions from tropical rainforest soils under different conditions.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Non-microbial methane (NM-CH4), emissions from soil might play a significant role in carbon cycling and global climate change. However, the production mechanisms and emission potential of soil NM-CH4 from tropical rainforest remain highly uncertain.

Analysis of the influence of tropical soil classification methods on railway subgrades according to repeated load triaxial (RLT) and light weight deflectometer (LWD) tests

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
Recently, non-destructive in-situ tests have emerged that can predict the resilient modulus (MR) of materials that make up railway sidewalk layers in an agile and low-cost manner. These are in contrast to laboratory tests that require more infrastructure

eDNA extraction protocol for metagenomic studies in tropical soils

BioTechniques, 2021
The lack of knowledge about biological communities residing in soils, especially those in tropical regions, represents a constraint to management practices to take advantage of the ecological services provided by soil microbiota to agroecosystems. One of

Modeling of P-Loss Risk and Nutrition for Mango (Mangifera indica L.) in Sandy Calcareous Soils: A 4-Years Field Trial for Sustainable P Management

Horticulturae, 2022
The continuous addition of phosphorus (P) fertilizers above plant requirements increases P loss risks, especially if such fertilization practices continue long-term.

Detailed regional predictions of N2O and NO emissions from a tropical highland rainforest [Discussion paper] [PDF]

, 2013
Tropical forest soils are a significant source for the greenhouse gas N2O as well as for NO, a precursor of tropospheric ozone. However, current estimates are uncertain due to the limited number of field measurements.

Assessment of Trace Element Contents in Soils and Water from Cerrado Wetlands, Triângulo Mineiro Region

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2019
In the Brazilian Cerrado biome, there are wetlands locally known as “Veredas”, which are swampy plains between hills and rivers. Since the 1970’s, the Cerrado biome has been gradually converted to livestock, crop, or forestry production.
