Abstract:
... Recent advances in molecular ecology have dramatically improved our knowledge of soil microbial diversity and offers new indicators of soil quality. The usefulness of diversity indices has never been greater as the astronomical amounts of data generated in the literature needs to be synthesized. Despite technical guidelines have been proposed to characterize soil microbiomes using high throughput ...

Abstract:
... Despite the potential of diversification strategies to achieve sustainability, diversified systems such as agroforestry are still not widely implemented by farmers, which indicates the need to further understand and adequately assess the impacts of diversification to inform the design of complex systems. In this paper, we conduct a systematic literature review focused on agroforestry coffee system ...

Although the SOC stock and its dynamic in the past decades have been extensively investigated, the information as to where, how much, and how SOC could be potentially sequestered in the coming decades has rarely been available. Here, the Rothamsted Carbon model was applied to investigate the spatiotemporal pattern of SOC ...
