Factors controlling humification and mineralization of soil organic matter in the tropics

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical pathways of decomposition and humification of SOM in tropical soils are discussed referring mainly to the chemical structural changes identified by using both solid-state13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C NMR) of bulk soil samples and liquid-state 13c NMR of chemically isolated SOM fractions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization, differentiation, and classification of humic substances by fluorescence spectroscopy

TL;DR: Fifty samples of humic acids and fulvic acids isolated from various soils and soil-related materials (including paleosols, peat, leonardite, composted and earthworm-composted organic materials, sewage sludges, and materials synthesized by soil fungi) have been investigated by fluorescence spectrosc as mentioned in this paper.
Book ChapterDOI

Dissolved Organic Matter: Biogeochemistry, Dynamics, and Environmental Significance in Soils

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight knowledge on the production of dissolved organic matter in soils under different management regimes, identify its sources and sinks, and integrate its dynamics with various soil processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular and quantitative aspects of the chemistry of fulvic acid and its interactions with metal ions and organic chemicals : Part II. The fluorescence spectroscopy approach

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of molecular parameters and environmental factors (molecular weight, concentration, pH, ionic strength, temperature and redox potential) on the fluorescence behavior of fulvic acids are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trace element inputs into soils by anthropogenic activities and implications for human health.

TL;DR: The possible relations found between some specific soil trace elements, such as Cd, Se, As and others, and cancer incidence and mortality, and diffusion of other important human diseases are reviewed.
