Carbon cycling and priming of soil organic matter decomposition in a forest soil following glucose additions

Creator:

Diaz, David D.

Abstract:

Soils are a globally significant carbon (C) pool and have the potential to respond to elevated CO2 and environmental changes through positive feedback cycles that enhance the turnover of soil organic matter (SOM). Understanding the mechanisms governing the turnover of SOM is particularly important for modeling the fate of C...

Evaluation of Methods for Applying Phosphorus, Potassium, and Boron Fertilizers in Northern Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:

Leon-Chang, David P.

Abstract:

Previous studies indicated that fertigating with nitrogen (N) was more effective than using granular N fertilizers in production of northern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). To build on these findings, four studies were conducted in western Oregon to determine whether fertigation was also an effective method for applying other nutrients,...

Detrital Influences on Soil Carbon Stabilization in Wet Temperate Forest Soils

Creator:

Pierson, Derek N.

Abstract:

Soils, with their potential to store and stabilize carbon (C), are an essential resource for sustaining forest productivity, as well as for efforts to reduce atmospheric C concentrations. Protecting existing soil C and harnessing the sequestration potential of our soils require an improved understanding of the processes through which soil...
