especially in the light of a predicted increase in drought stress intensity and duration at the continental and global scale due to climate change (Lehner et al.2006; Allen et al.2010), particularly for coarse texture soils with low water-...
The results from the analysis of boosted regression tree showed that the soil pH was the most important factor influencing the BHM changes in biochar amended soil, followed by soil texture, aging time and biochar pyrolysis temperature. The results of this review showed that the BHM was decreased...
Depth available to roots, TAWC, BD, and SOC were aggregated to 25 km by selecting their median values, while soil texture (top and subsoil) was based on the area majority in each 25-km unit. The soil water parameters input for permanent wilting point and soil saturation were selected ...
These organisms also maintain soil texture that affects water and oxygen dynamics in the soil that are necessary for plant growth. Replacing the work of these organisms in forming arable soil is not practically possible. These kinds of processes are called ecosystem services. They occur within ...
Bacteria present in the soil performs several major activities like improving soil texture, aggregation of soil particles, nutrient recycling, water... Learn more about this topic: Ecological Importance of Bacteria from Chapter 3/ Lesson 34
The content of animal extracellular DNA in soil profiles can easily differ to that derived from plants. Total DNA was shown to be strongly related to animal biomass (which is much lower than the biomass of plants) as well as to soil texture, with significant leaching in sandy soils and for...

while soil texture (top and subsoil) was based on the area majority in each 25-km unit. The soil water parameters input for permanent wilting point and soil saturation were selected based on the resulting textural classes, and field capacity (FC) was calculated from WP, TAWC, and the soil...
