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,...

Mineral Surfaces as Agents of Environmental Proteolysis: Mechanisms and Controls

Creator:

Chacon, Stephany S.

Abstract:

The bottleneck in the turnover of soil organic matter (SOM) is the conversion of large molecular compounds into smaller compounds that can be transported through a cell membrane of a microbe for processing. Once inside the cell, organic compounds can be converted into biomass or be respired. The microbial depolymerization...

Mechanisms of Organic Matter Accumulation and Feedbacks on Pore Space in Ferralsols/Oxisols Containing High Carbon Stocks

Creator:

Martinez, Pedro

Abstract:

Deeply weathered soils in tropical rainforests and savannas are classified as Ferralsols according to the World References Bases for Soil Resources (WRB). Ferralsols are most nearly akin to the Oxisols order defined in the US Soil Taxonomy. The acidity, low cation exchange capacity, and strong phosphorus retention by the oxidic...
