TL;DR: In this paper, the plant-specific effects on microbes, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) production and soil aggregation were investigated at two sites in southern Spain, differing in carbonate and graphite content, legume shrubs of Anthyllis cytisoides and grass tussocks of Macrochloa tenacissima.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lignin properties in topsoils of a beech/oak forest after 8 years of manipulated litter fall: relevance of altered input and oxidation of lignin
Thimo Klotzbücher,Thimo Klotzbücher,Stefan Strohmeier,Klaus Kaiser,Richard D. Bowden,Kate Lajtha,Heike Ohm,Karsten Kalbitz +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the response of lignin oxidation in soils of a beech/oak forest to changes in litter fall was studied, including doubling and exclusion of litter fall and control with ambient litter fall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of green waste compost on azimsulfuron dissipation and soil functions under oxic and anoxic conditions.
TL;DR: The application of this organic amendment is presented as an efficient management strategy to increase C turnover in agricultural soils and reduce some of the negative effects derived from the application of azimsulfuron under flooded conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erosional effects on distribution and bioavailability of soil nitrogen fractions in Belgian Loess Belt
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the influence of erosion on the spatial distribution of soil N fractions and controls on N bioavailability in eroding vs. depositional sites within the Belgian Loess Belt.
