The average stock of C was calculated for all non-organic soils (i.e. less than 5% C); arable soils were assumed to be placed at random on soils of different C content, so the average stock of C arable soils is equal the average C stock of non-organic soils —about 53 t C ha −1 for 0–30 cm depth (Smith et al ...

Metals in urban soils of : A systematic review – PubMed

Here, we conducted a systematic analysis of metal contamination urban soils based on 174 peer-reviewed studies spanning 143 urban sites and 29 countries. The results show that reporting of data on urban metals is highly heterogeneous across the study area. Over half of all studies are from only five countries (Italy ...

Macro and Microplastic in Agricultural Systems – CORDIS

It will also train a new generation of leading experts. The project aims to identify the plastic cycle within agricultural systems and support the development of environmental policies related to mitigating the impact of plastics. The findings will advance our knowledge about the sustainable use of plastics agriculture.

Grassland carbon sequestration: Current … –

grasslands, topsoil carbon storage in MAOM saturates at ~50 g C kg −1 , beyond which the additional increase in SOC storage completely depends upon accrual in POM . Currently, most grasslands (80%) are below saturation, indicating a large capacity for SOC sequestration in their topsoils ( 11 ).

Socioeconomic transformation together with climate change in recent decades significantly affected the geography of agricultural erosion Russia. Calculations of erosion rate and loss from slopes using logical-mathematical erosion models within different landscape zones and administrative regions revealed spatial-temporal regularities in the dynamics of these parameters and ...
