Automating double ring infiltrometer with an Arduino microcontroller
TL;DR: The designed and tested system of automated double ring infiltrometer (DRI) that is developed using an Arduino microcontroller, a Hall effect sensor, a peristaltic pump, a water level sensor, and a constant-level float valve, which can be used for infiltration measurements in both single ring falling head and double ring constant head methods.

Biochar and crop residue application to soil: effect on soil biochemical properties, nutrient availability and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
TL;DR: In this paper, the comparative effect of two different doses of pine needle and Lantana biochar (PBC and LBC), wheat residue and lentil residue (WR and LR) on soil biological properties, nutrient availability and yield of rice and wheat in pot culture was evaluated.

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.

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.
