Proxy global assessment of land degradation

Zhanguo Bai, David Dent, Lennart Olsson et al. · 24 Jul 2008

Abstract Land degradation is always with us but its causes, extent and severity are contested. We define land degradation as a long‐term decline in ecosystem function and productivity, which may be assessed using long‐term, remotely sensed normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) data. Deviation from the norm may serve as a proxy assessment of land degradation…

Soil acidification and the importance of liming agricultural soils with particular reference to the United Kingdom

K. W. T. Goulding · 24 Jun 2016

Abstract Soil acidification is caused by a number of factors including acidic precipitation and the deposition from the atmosphere of acidifying gases or particles, such as sulphur dioxide, ammonia and nitric acid. The most important causes of soil acidification on agricultural land, however, are the application of ammonium‐based fertilizers and urea, elemental S fertilizer and…

Agricultural soils as a sink to mitigate CO <sub>2</sub> emissions

Keith Paustian, Olof Andrén, H. H. Janzen et al. · 1 Dec 1997

Abstract. Agricultural soils, having been depleted of much of their native carbon stocks, have a significant CO 2 sink capacity. Global estimates of this sink capacity are in the order of 20‐30 Pg C over the next 50‐100 years. Management practices to build up soil C must increase the input of organic matter to soil…

Effect of cow manure biochar on maize productivity under sandy soil condition

Kingsley Chinyere Uzoma, Mitsuhiro Inoue, H. Andry et al. · 15 Apr 2011

Abstract In this study, we performed a greenhouse experiment to investigate the effect of cow manure biochar on maize yield, nutrient uptake and physico‐chemical properties of a dryland sandy soil. Biochar was derived from dry cow manure pyrolysed at 500 °C. Cow manure biochar was mixed with a sandy soil at the rate equivalent to…

WOFOST: a simulation model of crop production

C.A. van Diepen, J. Wolf, H. van Keulen et al. · 1 Mar 1989

Abstract. The WOFOST simulation model is a tool for analysing the growth and production of field crops under a wide range of weather and soil conditions. Such an analysis is important first to assess to what extent crop production is limited by the factors of light, moisture and macro‐nutrients, and second to estimate what improvements…
