Abstract:

Soil management has great potential to affect soil respiration. In this study, we investigated the effects of organic versus conventional soil management on soil respiration. We measured the main soil physical-chemical properties from conventional and organic managed soil in Ecuador. Soil respiration was determined using alkaline absorption according to Witkamp. Soil properties such as organic matter, nitrogen, and humidity, were comparable between conventional and organic soils in the present study, and in a further analysis there was no statically significant correlation with soil respiratio

Abstract:

Mechanisms governing carbon stabilization in soils have received a great deal of attention in recent years due to their relevance in the global carbon cycle. Two thirds of the global terrestrial organic C stocks in ecosystems are stored in below ground components as terrestrial carbon pools in soils. Furthermore, mean residence time of soil organic carbon pools have slowest turnover rates in terrestrial ecosystems and thus there is vast potential to sequester atmospheric CO2 in soil ecosystems. Depending upon soil management practices it can be served as source or sink for atmospheric CO2. Sus

Abstract:

The soil is the top layer of the earth’s surface, comprised of minerals and filled with air and water. Soil provides shelter to many animals that live on or in and is the base of plant systems. Plants’ growth and development depend on minerals and water in the soil. Without soil, there would be no vegetation and no food for the living organism on the earth. About 95% of our food nutrients come from soils, which have a natural capacity to provide nutrients to support crop growth. However, not all soils have the same ability to provide nutrients. Currently, we are facing a contrastin

Abstract:

Soil information is the basis for the site-specific management of soils. The study aimed to digitize soil information and classify it into soil mapping units (SMUs) using geostatistics. The study area was grouped into 12 SMUs, or management zones. The pH of the soils ranged from 7.3 in SMU2 to 8.6 in SMU5. Most SMUs exhibited low total nitrogen (TN) that could be attributed to very low soil organic carbon (SOC) in the soils. Available phosphorus (AvP) was very low in all the mapping units. The exchangeable K varied between 0.12 cmol(+) kg−1 (SMU7) and 0.95 cmol(+) kg−1 (SMU10). SMU12 was ident

Because temperatures are relatively high and it rains a lot in the region, mineral soils in the southeastern United States tend to be naturally acidic. Managing soils for both pH and nutrients helps maintain soil fertility levels and ensure economic agricultural production. If they are not maintained in the 6.0 to 6.5 pH range, which is best for most crops, most mineral soils in the Southeast will gradually return to their natural acidic state and their fertility levels will drop. In order to keep the soil in the right range, farmers have been encouraged to make routine applications of lime. C

Abstract:

The physical quality of Amazonian soils is relatively unexplored, due to the unique characteristics of these soils. The index of soil physical quality is a widely accepted measure of the structural quality of soils and has been used to specify the structural quality of some tropical soils, as for example of the Cerrado ecoregion of Brazil. The research objective was to evaluate the physical quality index of an Amazonian dystrophic Oxisol under different management systems. Soils under five managements were sampled in Paragominas, State of Pará: 1) a 20-year-old second-growth forest (Forest); 2

Abstract:

This theme issue provides an assessment of the contribution of soils to Nature's Contributions to People (NCP). The papers in this issue show that soils can contribute positively to the delivery of all NCP. These contributions can be maximized through careful soil management to provide healthy soils, but poorly managed, degraded or polluted soils may contribute negatively to the delivery of NCP. Soils are also shown to contribute positively to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Papers in the theme issue emphasize the need for careful soil management. Priorities for soil management must incl

Abstract:

Fertile soils form an important basis for survival for humans, but also for animals, plants and ecosystems, on which all terrestrial organisms rely. Soil is not only of central importance to the global provision of food and in the fight against hunger; climate, biological diversity and water bodies are also highly dependent on soil quality. Soil conservation is therefore a decisive factor in the survival of humanity. Pope Francis also emphasized this in his encyclical “Laudato si’”. However, increasing pressure is being exerted on soils, which poses an enormous challenge to the international c

Abstract:

While soils and land are pivotal elements of many Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and societal challenges, they face degradation and reduction of related functions and services worldwide. Societal demands on soils and land are increasing, including contributions to climate change mitigation and adaptation, ecosystem services, biodiversity and biomass production for food, feed, fiber and energy. This adverse combination of reducing capacities and increasing demands requires rapid transition towards sustainable soil and land management that mitigates trade-offs and creates synergies. Likewi

Abstract:

Arsenic (As) is a toxic metalloid and carcinogenic element that occurs widely in environment around the world. Arsenic is introduced into soil and water through geological (weathering of rocks and minerals) and anthropogenic pathways (mining, pesticides, fertilizers, timber treatment etc). Irrigation of agricultural land with As-contaminated groundwater or wastewater, particularly in India, Bangladesh and South-East Asia resulted in the accumulation of arsenic in both soils and plants posing risks to soil ecosystems and human health. Arsenic in soil and water exists in a different valence stat

Abstract:

Assessments of management-induced changes in soil organic matter depend on the methods used to calculate the quantities of organic C and N stored in soils. Chemical analyses in the laboratory indicate the concentrations of elements in soils, but the thickness and bulk density of the soil layers in the field must be considered to estimate the quantities of elements per unit area. Conventional methods that calculate organic matter storage as the product of concentration, bulk density and thickness do not fully account for variations in soil mass. Comparisons between the quantities of organic C,

Soil samples were collected from commercial agriculture sites within western Canada that were subjected to compaction from farm equipment in both conventional (imposed) traffic and controlled traffic regimes. Soil characteristics such as bulk density, pore volume fractions, and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity were compared with soil physical quality parameters, such as S-index and mass fractal aggregation between trafficked and untrafficked field areas. Our results showed that untrafficked soil characteristics displayed substantial improvements over those exposed to equipment compaction. Un

ABSTRACT Sorption of selenium (Se) on soils may be influenced by factors that are changed though agricultural practices usually performed for crop production, such as soil pH, competing anion and organic matter contents, among others. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of soil management and ionic strength (IS) on Se retention in Brazilian soils, which is important to predict Se availability in both systems, native and cultivated soils. For that, adsorption and desorption reactions of Se were evaluated in 16 soil samples (eight from cultivated soils and eight from native soils), using

For sustainable soil management, there is an increasing demand for soil quality, resilience, and health assessment. After remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC)-contaminated soils, changes in the physicochemical and ecological characteristics of the soil were investigated. Two kinds of remediation technologies were applied to contaminated soils: land farming (LF) and high temperature thermal desorption (HTTD). As a result of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), PHC-contaminated soils were efficiently remediated by LF and HTTD. The soil health could not be completely recovered after the remo

Abstract:

Avoiding groundwater contamination from agricultural activities is possible only if the processes that control deep percolation are understood. The source of contaminant movement to groundwater is typically through preferential flow, processes by which the bulk soil is bypassed by some part of the infiltrating water. Three mechanisms give rise to preferential flow: fingered flow, funnel flow, and macropore flow. Fingered flow occurs in coarse-textured soils and can be minimized by starting with an initially well-wetted profile. Funnel flow is likely in layered soil profiles of silt or coarser-
