In situ aging can change biochar properties, influencing their ecosystem benefits or risks
over time. However, there is a lack of field verification of laboratory methods that attempt …

Treating soils with pyrolyzed biomass, that is biochar, is proposed as a conditioner and a
carbon geoengineering measure. Rice is known as a strategic crop and rice husk is a cheap …

Incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuels yields a variety of chemically distinct
pyrolysis residues collectively referred to as black carbon (BC). Among these residues …

In recent years, special attention has been given to the long-term effects of biochar on the
performance of agro-ecosystems owing to its potential for improving soil fertility, harvested …

Soil organic carbon (C) is a key component of the global C budget. As soil organic C
turnover rates decrease with depth, agricultural practices favoring deep organic C storage …

Remote sensing data play a crucial role in monitoring crop dynamics in the context of
precision agriculture by characterizing the spatial and temporal variability of crop traits. At …

Charcoal‐rich Technosols on century‐old relict charcoal hearths (RCHs) are the subject of
ongoing research regarding potential legacy effects that result from historic charcoal …

Relict charcoal hearths (RCHs) increases soil fertility in forest ecosystems. However, the
effects of RCHs on the activity and abundance of soil microorganisms remain unknown. In …

Recent findings of several thousand relict charcoal hearths (RCHs) in the Tauer Forest
(Brandenburg, Germany) raise questions about the legacy effects of historical charcoal …

Black carbon (BC) plays an important role in terrestrial carbon storage and can sustainably
improve soil fertility. However, the accurate quantification of BC remains critical to fully …
