Limited information exists on the linkages between soil texture and land use on C storage efficiency. Organic C concentration in soils at the rural–urban interface was measured in 1982, 2000, and 2006 to determine controlling factors and optimal land use type to enhance soil organic C (SOC) storage in benchmark soil textural classes in the North China Plain's Daxing district. Soil texture was the...
Precision agriculture (PA) is a management method that measures and manages within-field variability. Previously, PA has required expansive and time consuming measurement of soil physical and chemical properties. In this paper we use a new and more rapid method of data collection based on Visible and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (VIS–NIRS) in the 400–2200nm spectral range to predict soil organic carbon...
There have been few studies on the formation and resistance of physical crusts to wind erosion for typical steppe soils in Inner Mongolia, China. The objectives of this study were to 1) examine the effects of rainfall quantity on soil crust thickness, 2) investigate the effects of soil crust on wind erosion, 3) determine the crust thickness (crust formed by various rainfall quantities) able to most...
