Understanding how land‐use types influence potassium (K) forms and soil physicochemical properties is crucial for sustainable soil management. Although soils in Ethiopia are derived from K‐rich parent materials, land‐use change alters K dynamics. Information on these variations is limited for the Shashemene district in southeastern Ethiopia. This study

Modification of a commercial dna extraction kit to simultaneously recover rna, safely and rapidly, and to assess molecular biomass of the total and the active part of microbial communities, from soils with diverse mineralogy and carbon content : S11.04-P -15 [PDF]
We have modified a commercial DNA extraction kit for soil to simultaneously co-extract RNA. In this new procedure RNA and DNA are separated by two selective purifications in cascade without the need of DNAase or RNAse digestion.

A survey of the farming systems of Vertisol areas of the Ethiopian highlands [PDF]
In 1986, ILCA carried out informal surveys at Dogollo and Inewari in order to understand the farming systems. Such surveys were also conducted by the Institute of Agricultural Research (IAR) at Ginchi in 1986 and by the Alemaya University of Agriculture ...

A semi-empirical dynamic soil acidification model for use in spatially explicit integrated assessment models for Europe [PDF]
A semi-empirical soil acidification model was developed for use in integrated assessment models on a European scale. The model simulates the time development of base saturation and aluminium concentration using an empirical relationship with pH.
