Salinization and sodication are abiotic soil factors, important hazards to soil fertility and
consequently affect the crop production. Soil salinization is of great concern for irrigated …

Nitrogen (N) supply is the major limiting nutrient in most reclamation schemes. In reclaimed
mine soil (RMS), examining the N dynamics can be especially informative for understanding …

Aim The aim was to explore how conversions of primary or secondary forests to plantations
or agricultural systems influence soil microbial communities and soil carbon (C) cycling …

Application of plant residues as soil amendment may represent a valuable recycling strategy
that affects carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling in soil–plant systems. The amount and rate of …

Abandonment of agricultural land leads to several consequences for ecosystem functions.
Agricultural abandonment may be a significant and low cost strategy for carbon …

Soil oxygen (O 2) deficiency induced by organic mulching is easy to overlook. Aeration has
been shown to potentially alleviate soil hypoxia stress. However, the responses of soil …

Excessive chemical nitrogen (N) fertilizer application and flood irrigation in rice production
can lead to substantial soil-N losses and low nitrogen-use-efficiency (NUE) in rice due to N …

Assessment of soil quality (SQ) indicators that detect soil degradation in different land use
and soil management systems (LUSMS) is desirable to achieve sustainable management …

A tight coupling exists between biogeochemical cycles and water availability in drylands.
However, studies regarding the coupling among soil moisture (SM), soil carbon/nitrogen …

Tropical montane forests (TMFs) are major centers of evolutionary change and harbor many
endemic species with small geographic ranges. In this systematic map, we focus on the …
