Fertilizer use soil health and agricultural sustainability
(MDPI, 2022-03-25)Due to the growing population and consequent pressure of use, agricultural soils must maintain adequate levels of quantity and quality to produce food, fiber, and energy, without falling victim to a negative impact on their ... -
From Kyoto to Paris: Measuring renewable energy policy regimes in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Mexico and the United States
(2019-04)There are numerous strategies to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions or to mitigate global climate change. One of them is to promote polices for developing renewable energy sources. There has been a growth in such policies ... -
Genesis of subtropical soils with stony horizons in NE Argentina: Autochthony and polygenesis
(Elsevier, 2009-03)Deep red soils, combining characteristics of highly weathered materials together with a significant degree of clay illuviation and with stony horizons close to the saprolite, are found in the Province of Misiones, northeastern ... -
Génesis de suelos en un sector del piedemonte aluvial del Chaco salteño
(2012-12)Se estudia la relación suelo-paisaje, las propiedades físico-químicas y la composición mineralógica de diferentes suelos dentro del cono aluvial del río Del Valle, en el borde occidental del Chaco salteño, en la provincia ... -
GH10 XynA is the main xylanase identified in the crude enzymatic extract of Paenibacillus sp. A59 when grown on xylan or lignocellulosic biomass
(2016)A novel bacterial isolate with polysaccharides degrading activity was identified as Paenibacillus sp., andnamed Paenibacillus sp. A59. Even though it is a strict mesophile, optimal xylanase activity of the crudeenzymatic ... -
Hierarchy of factors driving N2O emissions in non‐tilled soils under different crops
(Wiley, 2013-10)Nitrous oxide (N2O) is emitted to the atmosphere as a by‐product of nitrification and denitrification by soil microbial processes. Differences in climate, soil and management regulate these processes, causing N2O emissions ... -
How to Improve Soil Anti-adhesion by Studying the Micro Relief of the Cuticle Surface of Digging Beetles: Exploring the Sulcophanaeus batesi Pronotum Using Translucent Replicas
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-13)For some years, we have been studying the microtopography of soil diggers beetles fromArgentina to find the anti-adhesion pattern to decrease a soil particle adhesion for agricultural machinery components. In 2018, we ... -
Impact of cattle grazing on temperate coastal salt marsh soils
(Wiley, 2015-06)Over the last two decades, grazing intensity has increased in the temperate salt marshes of Samborombón Bay (Argentina) due to agricultural expansion and the displacement of domestic livestock to these areas. We investigated ... -
Improving Latin American soil information database for digital soil mapping enhances its usability and scalability
(Copernicus Publications, 2022-09-14)Spatial soil databases can help model complex phenomena in which soils are decisive, for example, evaluating agricultural potential or estimating carbon storage capacity. The Soil Information System for Latin America and ... -
Including spatial correlation in structural equation modelling of soil properties
(Elsevier, 2018-06)Digital soil mapping techniques usually take an entirely data-driven approach and model soil properties individually and layer by layer, without consideration of interactions. In previous studies we implemented a structural ... -
Inclusion of Lotus tenuis in beef cattle systems in the Argentinian flooding pampa as an enteric methane mitigation strategy
(Taylor and Francis, 2024-04-01)While concerns about greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and animal welfare persist, livestock farming offers unique ecosystem services. In Argentina, where livestock significantly contributes to GHG emissions, particularly ... -
The influence of soil properties on denitrifying bacterial communities and denitrification potential in no-till production farms under contrasting management in the Argentinean Pampas
(Elsevier, 2014-03)The aim of this work was to investigate the response of the structure, abundance and potential activity of denitrifiers to contrasting agricultural management in no-till production fields, across a regional scale within ... -
Interacción entre cultivos comerciales y de cobertura. Producción, dinámica del suelo y nitratos del agua
(Asociación Argentina de la Ciencia del Suelo, 2022-05-13)El agua y el nitrógeno (N) son los factores que generan las mayores limitaciones en la producción de ali mentos. El uso de los cultivos de cobertura (CC), modifica la dinámica del agua y N del suelo, por lo que es importante ... -
Machine learning in space and time for modelling soil organic carbon change
(Wiley, 2020-05-20)Spatially resolved estimates of change in soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks are necessary for supporting national and international policies aimed at achieving land degradation neutrality and climate change mitigation. In ... -
Manejo de bosques con ganadería integrada: impacto en las comunidades microbianas del suelo = forest management with integrated livestock: impact on soil microbial communities
(Asociación Argentina de la Ciencia del Suelo, 2016)El manejo de bosques polifíticos semicaducifolios en la Región Chaqueña que conservan la vegetación arbórea con ganadería integrada tiene como objetivo principal que las actividades ganaderas en zonas de bosques nativos ... -
Mapas de suelos afectados por sales en Argentina
(Red Argentina de Salinidad, 2022)Los suelos afectados por sales (SAS) se encuentran en todos los continentes y bajo casi todas las condiciones climáticas. Se trata de un grupo de suelos con muy diversas propiedades y cuyos rasgos en común son: i.- han ... -
Mapping the soils of an Argentine Pampas region using structural equation modeling
(2016-11)Current digital soil mapping (DSM) methods have limitations. For instance, it is difficult to predict a large number of soil properties simultaneously, while preserving the relationships between them. Another problem is ... -
Multivariate mapping of soil with structural equation modelling
(2017-09)In a previous study we introduced structural equation modelling (SEM) for digital soil mapping in the Argentine Pampas. An attractive property of SEM is that it incorporates pedological knowledge explicitly through a ... -
