Carbon leaching from undisturbed soil cores treated with dairy cow urine
(CSIRO, 2012)Solubilisation of soil carbon (C) under cow urine patches may lead to losses of soil C by priming or leaching. We investigated the solubilisation and bioavailability of soil C in undisturbed pasture soil treated with urine. ... -
Carbon storage and DNA absorption in allophanic soils and paleosols
(Springer, New York, 2014)Andisols and andic paleosols dominated by the nanocrystalline mineral allophane sequester large amounts of carbon (C), attributable mainly to its chemical bonding with charged hydroxyl groups on the surface of allophane ... -
Change in heat capacity for enzyme catalysis determines temperature dependence of enzyme catalyzed ratesnzyme Catalyzed Rates
(American Chemical Society, 2013)The increase in enzymatic rates with temperature up to an optimum temperature (Topt) is widely attributed to classical Arrhenius behavior, with the decrease in enzymatic rates above Topt ascribed to protein denaturation ... -
Changes in carbon and nitrogen stocks following conversion of plantation forest to dairy pasture on Vitrands (Pumice Soils), New Zealand
(2010)Between 1990 and 2010 some New Zealand plantation forests underwent deforestation to establish dairy farms. The main area of land-use conversion to pasture is to the north of Lake Taupo in the Central North Island (Figures ... -
Changes in natural ¹⁵n abundance in pastoral soils receiving differing amounts of superphosphate fertilizer and irrigation for 50 years
(Soil Science Society of American, 2013)Intensification of pastoral agriculture has led to increased N losses to the wider environment. This has led to an emphasis on improving our understanding of soil N dynamics, and development of management practices which ...
