Many nutrients in soil exist as salts, soluble and available for plant uptake. But when salts accumulate in excess, crop growth can decline. With more frequent surface flooding in coastal fields and ...
Saltwater intrusion from sea level rise and tidal flooding is increasing soil salinity risks in coastal farm fields (Figure 1). Soil salinity is related to the presence of soluble salts and cations ...
New Meta-Analysis Reveals Biochar’s Role in Restoring Salt-Affected Soils New research provides critical insights into optimizing biochar application for enhancing crop yields and reducing soil ...
This phenomenon is most notable in the Western part of the country where major irrigation schemes are located. Out of a total area of 140,000 hectares in this part of Algeria, 30% consists of very ...
A new global study shows that increasing soil salinity is systematically reshaping the storage and distribution of soil inorganic carbon (SIC), a key but often-overlooked part of terrestrial ...
