Spatial data mining for enhanced soil map modelling
The principle of using induction rules based on spatial environmental data to model a soil map has previously been demonstrated. Whilst the general pattern of classes of large spatial extent and those with close association with geology were delineated, small classes and the detailed spatial pattern of the map were less well rendered. Here we examine several strategies to improve the quality of...
متن کاملPedosphere, global changes and environmental quality of soil
With development of modern geoscience, particularly of environmental sciences, the contemporary soil science is undergoing great changes in both research contents and scope. Soil is not only a certain substance or a certain independent natural historical body, but also a spheric layer with peculiar structure and functions in the earth system. From the viewpoint of the geo-biosphere system of th...
متن کاملGlobal soil carbon projections are improved by modelling microbial processes
Society relies on Earth system models (ESMs) to project future climate and carbon cycle feedbacks. However, the soil C response to climate change is highly uncertain in these models1,2 and they omit key biogeochemical mechanisms3–5. Specifically, the traditional approach in ESMs lacks direct microbial control over soil C dynamics6–8. Thus, we tested a new model that explicitly represents microb...
متن کاملPlant responses to soil heterogeneity and global environmental change.
Recent evidence suggests that soil nutrient heterogeneity, a ubiquitous feature of terrestrial ecosystems, modulates plant responses to ongoing global change (GC). However, we know little about the overall trends of such responses, the GC drivers involved, and the plant attributes affected.We synthesized literature to answer the question: Does soil heterogeneity significantly affect plant respo...
متن کاملPotential responses of soil organic carbon to global environmental change.
Recent improvements in our understanding of the dynamics of soil carbon have shown that 20-40% of the approximately 1,500 Pg of C stored as organic matter in the upper meter of soils has turnover times of centuries or less. This fast-cycling organic matter is largely comprised of undecomposed plant material and hydrolyzable components associated with mineral surfaces. Turnover times of fast-cyc...
