Changes in soil exchangeable nutrients across different land uses in steep slopes of Mizoram, North-east India

Soil-Borne Microbial Functional Structure across Different Land Uses

Land use change alters the structure and composition of microbial communities. However, the links between environmental factors and microbial functions are not well understood. Here we interrogated the functional structure of soil microbial communities across different land uses. In a multivariate regression tree analysis of soil physicochemical properties and genes detected by functional micro...

Soil Carbon Sequestration Capacity in Different Land Uses (Case Study: Award Watershed in Mazandaran Province)

The Effect of Different Land Uses on New Indices of Soil Quality in Central Alborz Region

Different land uses have various effects on the changes of soil properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of natural forest, needle-leaved plantation and rangelands of central Alborz on new indices of soil quality (i.e. organic matter stratification, carbon management index and soil biological activities). For this purpose, eight samples from organic layer (litter) and m...
