Abstract China's Loess Plateau is the largest loess deposit in the world in terms of both
depth and area. Water storage in soils of the Plateau has direct impacts on food security …

The cycling of iron (Fe) is often closely linked with that of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and
manganese. Therefore, alterations in the Fe cycle may be indicative of concurrent overall …

Iron (Fe) isotopes can effectively unveil the Fe cycle mechanisms under redox and biological
conditions during the weathering and pedogenic processes. Fe contents and Fe isotope …

Evaluating the contribution of natural and agricultural factors on Fe dynamics in soils is
crucial to the study of material cycling in critical zone observation. Five soil profiles under …

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) has a significant impact on both the natural environment
and human health. Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the earth's crust, playing an …

Significant iron (Fe) loss can occur during continental weathering and efflux to the ocean via
runoff, historically affecting global Fe cycling and marine ecosystems. Here, we report …

Water erosion considerably affects the stability and particle size distribution of soil
aggregates, but the underlying mechanisms of water erosion remain unclear. To this end …

Copper (Cu) isotopes are utilized to track Cu geochemical cycling in weathered gleysols of
tropical zones. A significant isotope fractionation of Cu in these soils is primarily redox …

The association of soil organic matter (SOM) with iron (Fe) oxides by adsorption and/or co-
precipitation contributes to long term C stabilization in soil. While there is an understanding …

Abstract Information on phosphorus (P) transformation during long-term paddy soil evolution
is important for maintaining rice yield and nutrient management. This study was aimed to …
