TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of municipal solid waste (MSW) compost appli- cation on soil properties, nitrogen availability to plants and its uptake efficiency was determined, based on results of a three-year field experiment where two different MSW composts were non-recurrently applied to sandy soil at rates of 18, 36 and 72 t ha −1 (dry mass).

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of two types of organic sorbents (humic acid and biochar) in sorption-desorption processes of different polar pesticides, which residues are commonly present in arable soils and are potentially harmful for the environment.

TL;DR: In mature compost, low solubility were found for nitrogen, potassium, sodium and magnesium, which may indicate that the final product is a good source of these nutrients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of soil organic matter in Podzols in the subalpine region under mountain dwarf pine and Norway spruce in various stages of dieback (without degradation, with about 50% brown needles and dead trees) were investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the transformation of humic substances during composting of biomass of energetic plants and municipal solid waste was assessed and it was shown that humic and fulvic fractions in relation to the total organic carbon appears to be reliable indicator of composting as a process of enhancing organic matter humification.
