TL;DR: In this paper, a study was carried out in a local government area in Oyo state in order to map out some soil characteristics and assess their variability within the area using the cluster sampling technique, ten samples were collected in each location within a 10 by 10 km area, soil was sampled at two depths (0-20 and 20-40 cm) respectively.

Carbon Sequestration Efficiency of Organic Amendments in a Long-Term Experiment on a Vertisol in Huang-Huai-Hai Plain, China
TL;DR: The results indicate that the Vertisol has a large potential to sequester SOC with a high efficiency, and applying cattle manure or wheat straw is a recommendable SOC sequestration practice in Vertisols.
Carbon and nitrogen in soil and vine roots in harrowed and grass-covered vineyards
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of vineyard soil management on soil C and N content and quality were examined in both harrowed and grass-covered vineyards on a soil developed on plio-pleistocene, marine sediments.
Comparison of Single- and Double-Ring Infiltrometer Methods on Stony Soils
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared two different measurement methods, the single-ring infiltrometer (SR) and double-ring Infiltrometers (DR), when applied at three locations in a semiarid part of Chile that show moderate (15%) to high (55%) stoniness.

Response of microbial community to a new fungicide fluopyram in the silty-loam agricultural soil.
TL;DR: Fluopyram has a harmful effect on overall soil microbial activity, and changed soil microbial community structure and function, principal component analyses (PCA) suggested.

Analysis of factors controlling soil organic matter levels in Great Plains grasslands
TL;DR: In this article, a model of soil organic matter (SOM) quantity and composition was used to simulate steady-state organic matter levels for 24 grassland locations in the U.S. Great Plains.

Terrestrial ecosystem production: A process model based on global satellite and surface data
Christopher S. Potter,James T. Randerson,Christopher B. Field,Pamela A. Matson,Peter M. Vitousek,Harold A. Mooney,Steven Klooster +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a modeling approach aimed at seasonal resolution of global climatic and edaphic controls on patterns of terrestrial ecosystem production and soil microbial respiration using satellite imagery (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer and International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project solar radiation), along with historical climate (monthly temperature and precipitation) and soil attributes (texture, C and N contents) from global (1°) data sets as model inputs.
Climatic, edaphic, and biotic controls over storage and turnover of carbon in soils

TL;DR: In this paper, the Century ecosystem model was applied to a series of forest and grassland sites distributed globally to examine large-scale controls over soil carbon, including soil texture and foliar lignin content.
Model estimates of CO2 emissions from soil in response to global warming
TL;DR: In this article, the Rothamsted model is used to calculate the amount of CO2 that would be released from the world stock of soil organic matter if temperatures increase as predicted, the annual return of plant debris to the soil being held constant.

The role of biology in the formation, stabilization and degradation of soil structure
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of soil structure involves the physical forces of shrinking and swelling created by changes in water status of soils, freezing and thawing, tillage, or by movement of the larger biota in soils.
