Soil organic nitrogen (N) is a critical resource for plants and microbes, but the processes that
govern its cycle are not well-described. To promote a holistic understanding of soil N …

Improved assessment and prediction of net nitrogen mineralization (NNM) from soil organic
matter in field conditions are essential for a better management of nitrogen (N) in arable …

For the international digital soil mapping (DSM) community, adequate spatial estimates of
nitrogen (N) mineralization have yet to be generated. This is due, in part, to an inability to …

Abstract Currently, many Pedotransfer Functions (PTFs) are being developed to predict
certain soil properties worldwide, especially for difficult and time-consuming parameters to …

The winter fallow period common in annual cropping systems leaves soils vulnerable to
erosion and nutrient loss, especially to nitrogen (N) leaching. This vulnerability can be …

Assessing the success of soil reclamation programs can be costly and time-consuming due
to the cost of traditional soil analytical techniques. One cost-effective tool that has been …

Statistical modeling is commonly used to relate the performance of potato (Solanum
tuberosum L.) to fertilizer requirements. Prescribing optimal nutrient doses is challenging …

The mineralization of nitrogen in apple orchard soil will increase the soil supply. An
incubation study to test the soil potential and the validity of analytical methods was …

Understanding nitrogen (N) release patterns and kinetics is a key challenge for improving N
use efficiency in any agroecosystem. An incubation experiment was done to study the N …

Core Ideas Mineralized soil N is an important source of N for crops, but difficult to predict. A
reliable,“laboratory‐friendly” test for mineralizable N is not yet available. Chemical and …
