Soil Organic Matter

TL;DR: In most topsoils, the mass of the soil organic matter only amounts to a few percent, but has an important influence on all soil functions and plays a central role in the global carbon cycle as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

What’s in a colluvial deposit? Perspectives from archaeopedology

TL;DR: In this paper, an archaeopedological multi-proxy approach was used on a multi-layered colluvial deposit (six Colluvial horizons) at the prehistoric site of Furstenberg (Southwest Germany) to gain detailed insights into the sedimentation history, past pedogenesis and land use practices since the Neolithic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen dynamics in different types of pasture in the Austrian Alps

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the soil N dynamics in Alpine pastures on two mountains, Scheuchegg and Teufelstein, and found that the higher potential leaching of NO3− on ion-exchange resins in the forest pasture soils suggests lower microbial biomass and herbaceous plants compared with open pastures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saprotrophic and Ectomycorrhizal Fungi Contribute Differentially to Organic P Mobilization in Beech-Dominated Forest Ecosystems

TL;DR: P cycling enzymes did not appear to have been influenced by the total P stocks of the forest sites but may have been affected by additional abiotic factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of isopod population density on woodland decomposer microbial community function

TL;DR: Although woodlouse population density neither affected fungal biomass nor microbial community composition (ergosterol and soil phospholipid fatty acids), it influenced enzyme activities, depending on the inoculated fungus, seasonal effects on microbial biomass and function were strong.
