Journal ArticleDOI
Processes of soil acidification during nitrogen cycling with emphasis on legume based pastures
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the processes of H+ ions release during N cycling and its effect on soil acidification is examined, which is mainly caused by the release of protons (H+) during the oxidation of carbon (C), sulphur (S) and nitrogen (N) compounds in soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Losses and transformation of nitrogen during composting of poultry manure with different amendments: An incubation experiment
TL;DR: The transformation of nitrogen (N) and its subsequent loss during aerobic and anaerobic composting of poultry manure with different amendments were investigated through laboratory incubation experiments as discussed by the authors, which indicated that the N loss through denitrification could be considerably higher than that occurred through NH3 volatilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluoride: A review of its fate, bioavailability, and risks of fluorosis in grazed‐pasture systems in New Zealand
TL;DR: In this article, a preliminary F-cycling model for grazed pastures, based on the review of international literature and F concentrations in selected New Zealand pasture soils, indicated that grazing sheep and cattle obtain over 50% of their dietary F (and this may be > 80% during winter) from soil ingestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental hazards of fluoride in volcanic ash: a case study from Ruapehu volcano, New Zealand
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the varying influences on environmental hazards associated with the deposits of Ruapehu volcano, including the presence of environmentally significant elements such as sulphur and fluoride.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simplified resin membrane technique for extracting phosphorus from soils
TL;DR: A simplified procedure for determining the amount of phosphate (P) extracted from soils by ion exchange resin membranes is reported in this paper, where strips of anion (HCO3- form) and cation (Na+ form) exchange membrane were shaken with suspensions of soil in deionised water for 16-17 hours.
