Terra Preta research gave evidence for the positive influence of charred organic material (biochar) on infertile tropical soils. Facing global challenges such as land degradation, fossil energy decline, water shortage, and climate change, use biochar a soil amendment embedded into regional matter cycles seems to provide an all-round solution. However, little is known about effects individual ecosystem processes. Besides, term used variety products. Therefore, aim this study was investigate...
Abstract Biochar and hydrochar application to soil holds promise for climate change mitigation. This study provides first insights into the nutrient concentration removal of grassland vegetation after addition various carbon compounds together with pig slurry. Four treatments: control (no application), feedstock, biochar from M iscanthus x giganteus were applied at a permanent site near G iessen, ermany. Changes in plant functional groups, biomass production nutrition status monitored over 2...
This Working Paper summarizes the results of a survey and workshop, which were compiled discussed by scientists research institutes Thunen-Institut, Julius Kuhn-Institut (JKI) Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (FLI) in autumn 2016. The aim workshop was to analyze state knowledge on climate change adaptation BMEL departmental future challenges German agriculture forestry. forestry is affected primary impacts such as steadily rising average temperatures, altered precipitation patterns increasingly...
