"4 per 1000 Initiative" launched at COP21 has strongly recommended that increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) is a global imperative. However, the strategies to improve agricultural functioning and health by an increase in C have been poorly addressed. In rice farm trail, topsoil samples were collected 2015 respectively field amended with biochar (BA) (equivalent 10 t ha−1) 2009 adjacent no (NB). Soil aggregation, biochemical activities microbial communities of analyzed microscopic,...
The production of ginseng, an important Chinese medicine crop, has been increasingly challenged by soil degradation and pathogenic disease under continuous cropping in Northeast China. In a field experiment, Alfisol garden continuously cropped with ginseng (
Abstract While high soil carbon stability had been well known for biochar‐amended soils, how conversion of crop residues into biochar and subsequent amendment (BA) would favor microbial use sequestration not clearly understood. In this study, topsoil samples were collected from an upland a paddy soil, both previously amended with straw straw‐derived biochar. These incubated 13 C‐labeled maize residue (LMR) 140 days to compare mineralization, metabolic quotient ( q CO 2 ), efficiency (CUE)...
Fast accumulation of soil organic matter (SOM) following forest restoration shifted from cropland has been widely reported, but how the pools and molecular composition change across aggregate fractions remains unclear. In this study, undisturbed topsoil (0–10 cm) samples were collected a decadal chronosequence stands (RL10, RL20 RL40) restored for 10, 20 40 years maize (CL) abandonment in karst terrain Guizhou, Southwest China. SOM changes explored using size density fractionation...
The purpose of this study is to promote a new way application composite materials restore eutrophic waters. A sustainable based on the “teabag” method, in which were placed water-permeable bags and immersed water column order sorb phosphate—one main contributory element for eutrophication problem. Particularly, two composites Phoslock™ (lanthanum-modified bentonite, LMB) Bephos™ (Fe-modified f-MB) tested bench-scale batch experiments employed investigate their sorption efficiency forms...
Although biochar amendment could increase crop yield globally, it remains unclear how improves grain yield. A two-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the role of plant roots in promoting growth under amendment. The experiment, started 2015, a rainfed region North China. We hypothesized that increases maize by root growth. In first year (2015), increased 23.9% and 25.3% application rate 20 40 t ha−1, respectively. Biochar biomass stalk their potassium uptake significantly....
Co-pyrolysis of straw and Ca(OH)2 is a feasible modification method to improve the adsorption capacity biochar for Cd. However, few studies have quantitatively analyzed contribution different mechanisms alkali-modified biochar. In this study, (Ca) were prepared by co-pyrolyzing lime (Ca(OH)2) soybean (SBB) or rape (RSB) at 450 °C. The mechanism was investigated series experiments provided quantitative analysis. maximum capacities Cd2+ Ca-SBB Ca-RSB calculated be 78.49 mg g−1 49.96 g−1, which...
