Nitrogen, water content, phosphorus and active iron jointly regulate soil organic carbon in tropical acid red soil forest

Jinyue Bai et al.

Summary: This study identified key soil factors influencing forest soil SOC storage in the acid red soil region, highlighting the importance of total nitrogen, soil water content, active iron, and phosphorus in forest management. Increasing soil N and water content, as well as activating inactive iron, can enhance SOC storage capacity in forest soils.

Effects of forest floor characteristics on soil labile carbon as varied by topography and vegetation type in the Chinese Loess Plateau

Baorong Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that vegetation type and topography significantly influence forest floor properties. Soil total nitrogen and phosphorus increased with higher litter stock, coverage, and thickness, while soil pH and bulk density decreased. Soil organic carbon (SOC) and soil LOC fractions also increased significantly with higher litter stock, coverage, and thickness.

Effects of nitrogen addition on microbial residues and their contribution to soil organic carbon in China's forests from tropical to boreal zone

Suhui Ma et al.

Summary: The study found that N deposition has a significant impact on the accumulation of soil microbial residues and their contribution to SOC in different forest ecosystems, specifically affecting the fungal residues and bacterial residues in various forest types. The responses of microbial residue-C in SOC to N addition are dependent on changes in soil total N concentration and the fungi to bacteria ratio under N addition and climate conditions.

Cover crops, compost, and conversion to grassland to increase soil C and N stock in intensive agrosystems

Stefania Codruta Maris et al.

Summary: Organic fertilization or conversion to grassland may increase soil organic carbon and total nitrogen, but the long-term effects are limited. Soil organic carbon tends to decrease more rapidly during a depleting period, while soil total nitrogen shows a more lasting impact.

Effects of elevation and slope aspect on the distribution of the soil organic carbon associated with Al and Fe mineral phases in alpine shrub-meadow soil

Mingxuan Che et al.

Summary: This study found that the soil organic carbon associated with aluminum and iron minerals in alpine shrub-meadow soil accounted for a small proportion of SOC. Topography strongly influenced soil biotic and abiotic parameters, as well as organo-mineral associations in the soil.

Vertical distributions of organic carbon fractions under paddy and forest soils derived from black shales: Implications for potential of long-term carbon storage

Zhilian Qin et al.

Summary: The study found that the contents of LOC, Semi-LOC, and ROC in paddy soils and forest soils decrease significantly with increasing depth. Paddy soils have a lower contribution of LOC to SOC compared to forest soils, while the contribution of ROC to SOC is higher in paddy soils.

Changes in soil organic carbon and total nitrogen in apple orchards in different climate regions on the Loess Plateau

Yuanhong Zhang et al.

Summary: Research conducted on apple orchards in the Loess Plateau revealed that soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) concentrations and stocks were significantly lower in the semiarid region compared to the semihumid region, with higher C:N ratios. Additionally, SOC and TN concentrations generally decreased with increasing soil depth, with the highest concentrations found in the 0-120 cm soil layer. The variability of SOC and TN was mainly influenced by precipitation, plantation age, topographical properties, and soil type.

Long-term ecological effects of two artificial forests on soil properties and quality in the eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Yuejun He et al.

Summary: This study investigated the long-term ecological effects of a 30-year-old typical planted forest on the eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau on soil, finding that soil nutrient content was higher than pre-afforestation baseline values but soil quality index was low. LiDAR satellite imagery was used to estimate growing stock in different plantations, showing that different stand forests had discrete effects on the soil environment.

Tillage activates iron to prevent soil organic carbon loss following forest conversion to cornfields in tropical acidic red soils

Mingming Zong et al.

Summary: In acidic red soil areas, the main soil environmental factors affecting SOC storage in cornfields compared to forests include Fe-o, soil water content, nitrogen, and pH. Although nitrogen loss occurred in the 0-40 cm soil layer, the increase in Feo helped prevent SOC loss.

Land Uses, Altitude and Texture Effects on Soil Parameters. A Comparative Study in Two Districts of Nagaland, Northeast India

Gaurav Mishra et al.

Summary: The study examines the changes in soil properties in two districts of Nagaland in relation to different land uses, altitude, and soil texture. It found that soil organic carbon stocks and available potassium were significantly influenced by land uses, while available phosphorus content varied significantly with altitude. Soil organic carbon stocks showed an increasing trend with elevation in both districts.

Long-term land use change in Australia from native forest decreases all fractions of soil organic carbon, including resistant organic carbon, for cropping but not sown pasture

Ram C. Dalal et al.

Summary: Soil organic matter (SOM) is crucial for soil fertility, biomass and crop productivity, environmental sustainability, and climate change mitigation. Transitioning from native forest to pasture led to a decrease in SOC and STN stocks, which eventually stabilized after a period of time. Conversely, transitioning to cropping resulted in a significant decrease in SOC and all three SOC fractions over time.

Parent Material Effect on Soil Organic Carbon Concentration under Primeval European Beech Forests at a Regional Scale

Viliam Pichler et al.

Summary: The research explores the relationship between soil organic carbon concentration (SOCC) in monodominant primeval forests of European beech trees and their parent material. Results showed significant differences in SOCC among localities affected by site conditions, while the associations between SOCC and climatic variables or forest stand volume were found to be insignificant.
