Changes in anthropogenic influence on soils across …

Using the dataset resurveys, we spatially assessed changes in land cover in 1990–2018 and used these to estimate changes in naturalness. On average, 50.74% of the examined surface was classified as natural or near-natural, 41.66% of the surface was moderately, but recognizably transformed by human activities, while 4.43% of the ...

Aggregation and carbon storage in silty using physical …

We studied their influences in silty soils using samples from two field experiments with contrasting long-term use (cropped versus bare fallow). The cropped had a larger organic C content than the bare fallow, and allowed us to compare a with pools of organic C differing in turnover time with a dominated by the passive organic C ...
