The Science of the total environment
Impact of land use intensification on soil microbial communities across a territory remains poorly documented. Yet, it has to be deciphered to validate the results obtained at local and global scales by integrating the variations of environmental conditions and agricultural systems at a territorial scale. We investigated the impact of different lan...

Eucalyptus plantations are commonly fertilized at planting to sustain high biomass production over successive rotations in nutrient-poor soils. However, the dynamics of nutrient uptake by tree roots in the early stages of stand development, depending on the lateral distance from the trees and the depth in the soil, are poorly documented. We assesse...

Changes in soil microbial communities may impact soil fertility and stability because microbial communities are key to soil functioning by supporting soil ecological quality and agricultural production. The effects of soil amendment with biochar on soil microbial communities are widely documented but studies highlighted a high degree of variability...

Background: Major advances over the past decade in molecular ecology are providing access to soil fungal diversity in forest ecosystems worldwide, but the diverse functions and metabolic capabilities of this microbial community remain largely elusive. We conducted a field survey in montane old-growth broadleaved and conifer forests, to investigate ...

Remote sensing is an important tool for monitoring soil information. However, accurate spatial modeling of soil organic matter (SOM) in areas with high vegetation coverage, typically represented by agroecosystems, remains a challenge for field-scale estimation using remote sensing. To date, studies have focused on using single-period or multi-tempo...

Agricultural soils provide multiple ecosystem services (ES) that can replace chemical inputs to support agricultural production. However, most arable cropping systems are managed with little concern for preserving ecological functions, which could reduce their ability to provide these ES. An increasing number of studies assess ES from agroecosystem...

Mediterranean coastal areas have been occupied and developed intensively for a long time facing issues related to agricultural production, urbanization, tourism, preservation of natural resources often linked to salinity. This article explores the relationship between historical land planning and water management, and current soil and water salinit...

Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays a crucial role in soil health and global carbon cycling, therefore accurate estimates of its spatial distribution are important for managing soil health and mitigating global climate change. Digital soil mapping shows its potential to provide accurate and high-resolution spatial distribution of SOC across scales. To ...

Earthworms are known to improve plant growth in a soil-dependent way, notably via modifications of the rhizosphere microbiota and its functions. We tested the hypothesis that earthworms influence the abundance of microbial genes involved in N cycle according to the type of soil. In three soils with contrasting texture, we quantified five N-cycling ...
