Effects of organic-matter application on phosphorus adsorption of three soil parent materials
In this study, poultry manure compost and organic fertilizer were added to soils derived from basalt, granite, and river alluvial deposits for use as soil parent materials. Following incubation periods of 30 or 60 days at 25 °C, the physical and chemical properties and adsorption characteristics of the soils were studied. The results indicated that the application of poultry manure compost or o...

Microscopical studies were carried out, in addition to physico-chemical and mineralogical analysis, in order to evaluate the effect of parent material and weathering on soil genesis in forest regions of Lahijan. Two representative soil pedons in mountain landform developed on granite and andesitic basalt located about 8 km southeast of Lahijan were selected and sampling were taken from each hor...
متن کاملSequential density fractionation across soils of contrasting mineralogy: evidence for both microbial- and mineral- controlled soil organic matter stabilization
Sequential density fractionation separated soil particles into ‘‘light’’ predominantly mineral-free organic matter vs. increasingly ‘‘heavy’’ organo-mineral particles in four soils of widely differing mineralogy. With increasing particle density C concentration decreased, implying that the soil organic matter (OM) accumulations were thinner. With thinner accumulations we saw evidence for both a...
متن کاملSize and XAD fractionations of trihalomethane precursors from soils.
Soil organic matter is an important source of allochthonous dissolved organic matter inputs to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta waterways, which is a drinking water source for 22 million people in California, USA. Knowledge of trihalomethane (THM) formation potential of soil-derived organic carbon is important for developing effective strategies for organic carbon removal in drinking water trea...
متن کاملSoil organic matter dynamics in a North America tallgrass prairie after 9 yr of experimental warming
The influence of global warming on soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems remains unclear. In this study, we combined soil fractionation with isotope analyses to examine SOM dynamics after nine years of experimental warming in a North America tallgrass prairie. Soil samples from the control plots and the warmed plots were separated into four aggregate sizes (>2000 μm, 250–...
