Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soils plays an important role in the biogeochemistry of
carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, in pedogenesis, and in the transport of pollutants in soils …

Pollution of soils with As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn, collectively termed heavy metals
(HMs), can threaten human health and ecosystem functioning. Therefore, polluted soils must …

The aim of the present work was to provide a synopsis of the scientific literature concerning
the effects of different tree species on soil and to quantify the effect of common European …

In soils, dissolved organic matter (DOM) is probably the most bioavailable fraction of soil
organic matter, since all microbial uptake mechanisms require a water environment …

Despite that dissolved organic matter (DOM) and water-extractable organic matter (WEOM)
represent only a small part of soil organic matter, they appear to be involved in many soil …

It has been recognized for a long time that the overstorey composition of a forest partly
determines its biological and physical–chemical functioning. Here, we review evidence of …

The incorporation of organic matter (OM) in soils that are able to rapidly sorb applied
phosphorus (P) fertiliser reportedly increases P availability to plants. This effect has …

The dramatic decline in atmospheric CO2 evidenced by proxy data during the Devonian
(416.0–359.2 Ma) and the gradual decline from the Cretaceous (145.5–65.5 Ma) onwards …

Rock-forming minerals of igneous and metamorphic rocks contain most of the nutrients
required by higher plants for growth and development. Ground rock fertilisers may provide a …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) has an important effect on soil fertility, activity of
microorganisms and transport of contaminants. In this study, DOM released by the hydrochar …
