Soil quality as affected by agroforestry and grass buffers in grazed pasture and row crop systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Establishment of agroforestry and grass buffers within agroecosystems is believed to improve soil quality. Soil enzyme activities and water stable aggregates have been identified as sensitive soil quality indicators to ...
Effects of selected surfactants on nutrient uptake and soil microbial community
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Surfactants with solvent and wetting abilities are used in the formulation of herbicides to enhance spraying capabilities. These chemicals eventually enter into the soil and may disrupt different chemical, physical and ...
Soil microbial contribution to greenhouse gas efflux from a secondary forest in central Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) vary with the interactions among physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of soil and microclimate. Soil microorganisms are involved in almost all soil processes, and are also ...
