Estimating soil organic carbon through loss on ignition: effects of ignition conditions and structural water loss
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2015-03)Loss on ignition (LOI) is one of the most widely used methods for measuring organic matter content in soils but does not have a universal standard protocol. A large number of factors may influence its accuracy, such as ... -
Grazing intensity levels influence C reservoirs of wet and mesic meadows along a precipitation gradient in Northern Patagonia
(Springer, 2015-06)Wet meadows are important ecosystems for forage production and as carbon reservoirs in semi-arid areas. In Patagonia, Argentina, large areas of wet meadows have been classified as overgrazed by livestock. The objective of ... -
How does crop residue removal affect soil organic carbon and yield? A hierarchical analysis of management and environmental factors
(2015-10)The current advancement of the bioenergy sector along with the need for sustainable agricultural systems call for context-specific crop residue management options – implying variable degrees of removal – across climatic ... -
Relationships between land-use intensity, woody species diversity, and carbon storage in an arid woodland ecosystem
(Elsevier, 2023-02)Forest ecosystems play a key role in providing multiple ecosystem services, such as carbon fixation and storage, but face pressures from human development that jeopardize their integrity and functioning. Accurately ... -
Variation in carbon and nitrogen concentrations among peatland categories at the global scale
(PLOS, 2022-11-23)Peatlands account for 15 to 30% of the world’s soil carbon (C) stock and are important controls over global nitrogen (N) cycles. However, C and N concentrations are known to vary among peatlands contributing to the uncertainty ...
