- Abstract:
- ... In this field study, under the soil conditions of southern Slovakia (Dolná Streda, sandy Haplic Arenosol), there were quantified the effects of biochar substrates (1. Effeco 50:50; 2. Effeco 33:33:33) in two rates (10 and 20 t.ha⁻¹) applied alone or in combination with mineral fertilization on soil organic matter (SOM) content and crop yields for period of 3 years (2018-2020) but also the linear r ...

- Abstract:
- ... PURPOSE: Microplastics have become a ubiquitous pollutant in marine, terrestrial and freshwater systems that seriously affects aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Common methods for analysing microplastic abundance in soil or sediments are based on destructive sampling or involve destructive sample processing. Thus, substantial information about local distribution of microplastics is inevitably lo ...

What physiological mechanisms underlie this difference and protect P. exaltatus from P toxicity? Ptilotus exaltatus and K. prostrata were grown in a sandy soil with low-P, high-P and P-pulse treatments. Both species hyperaccumulated P (>20 mg g⁻¹) un ...

Pisha sandstone (PS) can increase the ability of sandy soil to retain water and some nutrients due to the presence of montmorillonite, but its inadequate phosphorus adsorption capacity affects its phosphorus holding capacity. This study aims to determine whether Al modification can enhance the phosphate adsorption capacity of Pisha sandstone and to identify the adsorption mechanism. Batch adsorpti ...

- Abstract:

When areas with sandy soil are used for pasture prior to soybean cultivation, the availability of nitrogen (N) for plants is limited even further. Our objective was to evaluate if inoculation combined with N fertilization increases N content in the soil and N supply to soybean plants in post-pasture and post-soybean areas. Four experiments were condu ...

Rockfall often collides with the slope during the movement on a slope surface, and the energy dissipation of rockfall collision is used to quantify by the coefficient of restitution (COR) in analysing rockfall trajectory. The coefficient of restitution is one of the most crucial parameters in analysing rockfall hazard, and it can be obtained by field test or laboratory test. The main motion modes ...

However, the improvement effect of glass fibers with a reticular structure is different from that of ordinary fibers. At the same time, the sandy soil structure is diversified and part of the soil is layered, such as the lenticle in tailings dam, which often forms layered sandy soil with nearby taili ...

- Abstract:
- ... The occurrence of rainfall-induced slope failures is mainly due to the infiltrated rainwater which reduces the shear strength of soil. The slope is initially observed in an unsaturated condition and it becomes wetted during rainfall. In other words, the infiltration of rainwater into the soil slope is a wetting process. As a result, the amount of the infiltrated rainwater is mainly governed by the ...

If a portion of P accumulates in perennial organs in organic fractions it can be used in the next growth season, possibly decreasing plant dependence on P derived from soil fertilization. However, if P is preferentially accumulated in inorgani ...
