Toward an attempt to limit the global warming to 2° C, there has been an increasing
emphasis on devising suitable policies and practices for entrapment and storage of …

The current and projected anthropogenic global warming and the attendant increase in the
severity and extent of soil degradation may exacerbate the intensity and duration of drought …

Soil water erosion and shallow landslides depend on aggregate stability and soil shear
strength. We investigated the effect of vegetation on both soil aggregate stability and shear …

Agricultural management practices can affect soil structure and soil organic carbon (SOC)
and nutrient stocks, which are important for sustainable agriculture. There is however limited …

Alpine grassland and the soil on which it is growing in the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau (QTP) of
China is being degraded in an attempt to increase food and feed production for an …

Core Ideas Meta‐analysis compared soil hydrology in perennial‐and annual‐based crop
systems. Continuous living cover practices significantly increased porosity, field capacity …

Increasing trend of native forests conversion into farmlands can adversely influence the soil
quality. Such impacts on soil attribute must be studied in more details in order to protect or …

A study was conducted to assess the impact of different land use systems on labile C pools
and soil organic carbon stocks in the foothill Himalayas. Soil samples were collected from …

Effects of two tillage treatments, tillage (T) with chisel plough and no-till (NT), were studied
under un-drained and drained soil conditions. Soil physical properties measured were bulk …

Soil physical properties and soil organic carbon (SOC) are considered as important factors
of soil quality. Arable land, grassland, and forest land coexist in the saline-alkali reclamation …
