Mehlich 3 soil test extractant: A modification of Mehlich 2 extractant

TL;DR: The Mehlich 3 (M3) extractant as discussed by the authors is composed of 0.2N CH3COOH, 0.25N NH4N03•0.015NNH4F, 0,013NHN03−0.001M EDTA.

A literature review and evaluation of the. Hedley fractionation: Applications to the biogeochemical cycle of soil phosphorus in natural ecosystems

TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of the recent literature shows that the sequential fractionation proposed by Hedley et al. can also be used to separate forms of organically bound soil phosphorus from the geochemically bound fractions.

Kinetic control of dissolved phosphate in natural rivers and estuaries: A primer on the phosphate buffer mechanism1

TL;DR: The primary mode of interaction of dissolved phosphate with fluvial inorganic suspended particles is via a reversible two-step sorption process as discussed by the authors, which is dependent on the time history of the previous surface sorption and the chemistry of the solid diffusional layer.

Plant Species Richness and Ecosystem Multifunctionality in Global Drylands

Fernando T. Maestre, +53 more
- 13 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: A global empirical study relating plant species richness and abiotic factors to multifunctionality in drylands, which collectively cover 41% of Earth’s land surface and support over 38% of the human population, suggests that the preservation of plant biodiversity is crucial to buffer negative effects of climate change and desertification in dryland.
