Role of biochar toward carbon neutrality
Liuwei Wang, Jianzhong Deng, Xiaodong Yang, Renjie Hou, Deyi Hou
AbstractCarbon neutrality by the mid-twenty-first century is a grand challenge requiring technological innovations. Biochar, a traditional soil amendment which has been used for fertility improvement and contaminant remediation, has revealed new vitality in this context. In this review we highlight the huge potential of biochar application in different fields to mi...... hiện toàn bộ
Chemical composition, sources, and ecological effect of organic phosphorus in water ecosystems: a review Tập 2 Số 1
Weiying Feng, Tengke Wang, Yuanrong Zhu, Fubao Sun, John P. Giesy, Fengchang Wu
AbstractPhosphorus (P) affects the water–air CO2 flux through primary productivity, and affects the changes of carbon cycle and ecological environment in the global world. Organic phosphorus (Po) is an important P component in water environments. Various processes control the formation and transformation of Po and outbreaks of algal blooms. Her...... hiện toàn bộ
Potential implications of biochar and compost on the stoichiometry-based assessments of soil enzyme activity in heavy metal-polluted soils
Kai Zhao, Nanyi Wang, Shilin Jiang, Fanghong Li, Shuang Luo, Anwei Chen, Hui Li, Lin Xu, Jiachao Zhang, Lihua Zhang, Hongli Huang, Lin Luo
AbstractBiochar and compost application in soil has been proved as an environmental management and soil remediation strategy for upgrading soil quality and growth-promoting soil microorganisms. A detailed examination of the fluctuations and stoichiometric interactions between β-glucosidase (BG), N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), and acid ...... hiện toàn bộ
Biochar mitigates allelopathy through regulating allelochemical generation from plants and accumulation in soil Tập 1 Số 1 - 2022
Quan Chen, Pinyao Lan, Min Wu, Meng Lu, Bo Pan, Baoshan Xing
AbstractSoil health is a key factor for the global food security. One of the main bottlenecks for the efficient utilization of farmland soil is the accumulation of allelochemicals excreted by plant roots, leached and volatilized from plants, and released during the decomposition of plant residues. The negative impacts derived from allelochemicals include: decreasin...... hiện toàn bộ
Different responses of agroecosystem greenhouse gas emissions to tillage practices in a Chinese wheat–maize cropping system
Zhaoxin Li, Qiuying Zhang, Li Zhao, Yunfeng Qiao, Kui Du, Zewei Yue, Chao Tian, Peifang Leng, Hefa Cheng, Gang Chen, Fadong Li
AbstractTo mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of intensified agriculture, conservation practices are gradually being implemented in Chinese wheat–maize cropping systems. However, the effects of different tillage practices on agricultural field GHG emissions and subsequent global warming potential (GWP) are poorly documented. In this study, a three-year field e...... hiện toàn bộ
Micro/nanoplastics contamination of the terrestrial environment: exposure routes, dose, and co-contaminants complicate the risk calculus Tập 2 Số 1
Xiaoli Zhao, Xiaowei Wu, Jason C. White, Zhi Cheng Tang, Fengchang Wu
AbstractAs xenobiotics in the environment, microplastics and nanoplastics have become ever-present in the environment, especially in terrestrial environment. However, a critical issue is that these anthropogenic contaminants are toxic to some terrestrial microorganisms, and the results of that toxic interaction over time can significantly impact microbial community...... hiện toàn bộ
Greenhouse-temperature induced manure driven low carbon footprint in aquaculture mesocosm Tập 1 Số 1
Deblina Dutta, Debajyoti Kundu, B. B. Jana, S. C. Lahiri, Jatindra Nath Bhakta
AbstractIn an aquaculture system, estimates were made of soil organic carbon content, carbon burial rate, soil structure and algal productivity with the intention of examining the synergistic effects of both greenhouse gas (GHG) induced temperature and manure-driven carbon reduction potentials in sediments that depend on productivity as well as tilapia spawning res...... hiện toàn bộ
Dosage- and site-dependent retention of black carbon and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in farmland soils via long-term biochar addition Tập 3 Số 1
Mengjie Zhang, Yinghui Wang, Yameng Shi, Biwei Yang, Aiping Zhang, Zhangliu Du, Guangcai Zhong, Chunling Luo, Gan Zhang, Junjian Wang
AbstractBiochar, a soil conditioner containing significant amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), has gained widespread popularity in agricultural practices due to its advantages in improving soil fertility and carbon sequestration. While biochar may increase soil black carbon (BC) and PAH contents, the quantitative accumulation of BC and PAHs in diffe...... hiện toàn bộ
