Acid sulfate soil mapping in western Finland: How to work with imbalanced datasets and machine learning Geoderma (IF 6.1) Pub Date : 2024-05-18 Virginia Estévez, Stefan Mattbäck, Anton Boman, Pauliina Liwata-Kenttälä, Kaj-Mikael Björk, Peter Österholm
Imbalanced datasets are one of the main challenges in digital soil mapping. For these datasets, machine learning techniques commonly overestimate the majority classes and underestimate the minority ones. In general, this generates maps with poor precision and unrealistic results. Considering these maps for land use decision-making can have dire consequences. This is the case of acid sulfate (AS) soils

Abstract. In situ soil pH measurements with ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) are receiving increasing attention in soil mapping for precision agriculture as they can avoid time-consuming sampling and off-site laboratory work. However, unlike the standard laboratory protocol, in situ pH measurements are carried out at lower and varying soil moisture contents (SMCs), which can have a pronounced effect

Influences of root fragments on soil thermal property measurements with heat pulse method Geoderma (IF 6.1) Pub Date : 2024-05-17 Xiaoting Xie, Wei Peng, Yili Lu, Tusheng Ren
Heat pulse (HP) method has been widely applied for measuring thermal properties, heat fluxes, and soil–water evaporation for near-surface soil layers. In topsoil layers, the presence of roots violates the underlying assumption of HP method that the soil under test is homogeneous. In this study, numerical and laboratory experiments were conducted to test the influence of root fragments on soil thermal

Soil erosion has become a serious ecological problem hindering the agricultural and economic development in Northeast China. Soil aggregates are basic units that regulate soil fertility and microbial activity. However, there have been few reports on the role of soil erosion in regulating the microbial diversity, multiple ecosystem services, and functions (multifunctionality) of soil aggregates. In

Salix sand barriers have been widely used in arid and semi‐arid regions of northern China as an environmentally friendly approach to control wind erosion. However, the inherent variability in length and thickness of Salix branches complicates achieving the desired fence porosity, typically resulting in an error of approximately 10% or more. This defect affects the fence's wind protection, thereby limiting

Plant Protection Products (PPPs) are widely used to maintain high productivity and protect crops, but can have unintended toxic effects on beneficial non‐target soil organisms. To avoid unacceptable adverse effects of PPPs on soil organisms, a prospective risk assessment is carried out, which focuses on individual substances and their effects on a few individual species or groups. However, the reality

The use of heavy machinery is increasing in agricultural industries, and in particular cotton farming systems in Australia, which induces an increased risk of soil compaction and yield reduction. Hence, there is a need for a technical solution to use available tools to measure projected soil compaction due to farm machinery traffic.

Nitrogen (N) released from soil organic matter (SOM) is quantitatively important for crop uptake, even when adequate fertiliser N is supplied. Understanding of SOM has shifted to recognise distinct fractions that correlate with properties such as turnover time, carbon (C) and N content, and chemical composition. Yet, how these fractions relate to N supply from SOM is poorly understood. This study aimed

The interplay between climate and bedrock type determines litter decomposition in temperate forest ecosystems Soil Biol. Biochem. (IF 9.7) Pub Date : 2024-05-13 Richard Michalet, Pierre Liancourt
At regional scale, it is dominantly considered in the European literature that litter decomposition is higher in soils from calcareous than siliceous bedrocks because of higher pH in the former forest ecosystems. We tested the alternative hypothesis that this should rather be due to differences in physical characteristics of the bedrock, with likely higher decomposition on calcareous than siliceous
