Soil Aggregation and Soil Organic Carbon Stabilization: Effects of Management in Semiarid Mediterranean Agroecosystems (2009)

Álvaro-Fuentes, Jorge, Cantero-Martínez, Carlos, López Sánchez, María Victoria, Paustian, K., Denef, K., Stewart, C. E., ...

In semiarid agroecosystems of the Ebro valley (NE Spain) soils are characterized by low soil organic matter (SOM) and a weak structure. In this study we investigated the individual and combined...

Tillage Effects on Soil Organic Carbon Fractions in Mediterranean Dryland Agroecosystems (2008)

Álvaro-Fuentes, Jorge, López Sánchez, María Victoria, Cantero-Martínez, Carlos, Arrúe Ugarte, José Luis

Under semiarid conditions, soil quality and productivity can be improved by enhancing soil organic matter content by means of alternative management practices. In this study, we evaluated the...

Management Effects on Soil Carbon Dioxide Fluxes under Semiarid Mediterranean Conditions (2008)

Álvaro-Fuentes, Jorge, López Sánchez, María Victoria, Arrúe Ugarte, José Luis, Cantero-Martínez, Carlos

Losses of soil organic carbon (SOC) have contributed to CO2 emissions from soils to the atmosphere and to global climate change. We hypothesized that in semiarid agroecosystems of the Mediterranean...
