The soil stable carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) isotopes are widely used to indicate C 3/C 4
vegetation history, N sources and transformation processes, respectively. However, land use …

Soil carbon and nitrogen are essential factors for agricultural production and climate
changes. A total of 106 soil samples from three agricultural lands (including two rice fields …

Several decades of intensive rainfed farming in Mediterranean mountains and later land
abandonment has led to rapid land use and land cover changes. During recent centuries …

Secondary succession on abandoned agricultural lands can produce climate change

The aim of this research was to analyse the effect of rainfall intensity and slope on soil and
nutrient losses by hydric erosion in soils with different hydrological characteristics. This …

Mediterranean mountains are sensitive agroecosystems that have suffered intense land use
and land cover changes (LULCC) during the last century. From the middle of the twentieth …

The profile distributions of soil organic carbon (SOC), soil organic nitrogen (SON), soil pH
and soil texture were rarely investigated in the Lancangjiang River Basin. This study aims to …
