Can root exudates split soil organic matter molecules? (SBL)
Root exudates are extremely important in mobilizing nutrients and are increasingly seen as relevant to carbon sequestration in soils. They modify the biology and chemistry in the rhizosphere by several well known mechanisms. The a ...

Stimulating earthworm populations in horticulture – is that feasible?
Earthworms are important ecosystem engineers. They contribute to soil fertility, soil structure formation, and water cycling. Due to the often very intensive soil management in horticultural soils earthworm population density is o ...

Climate adaptation and mitigation potential of agroforestry systems
Agroforestry is increasingly recognised as a potential mitigation and adaptation strategy against
climate change. Agroforestry is often argued to increase soil carbon, improve nutrient cycling and promote soil biodiversity. It i ...

Impact of solar parks on spatial distribution of SOM and vegetation dynamics
Introduction: Solar parks are a relatively new and rapidly expanding land use to produce renewable energy and meet CO2 reduction targets. However, their impact on soil quality of agricultural fields raises concern. Solar parks cau ...

Nitrous oxide emission from soils amended with crop residues
One of the measures to sequester carbon in the soil is leaving crop residues on the soil. However, possible trade-offs with enhanced emission of nitrous oxide (N2O) could occur due to addition of nitrogen into the soil. In additio ...

Mitigation of nitrogen emissions from peat grassland by using Plantago lanceolata?
Introduction (thesis or internship)
Peat soils are very rich in organic matter through accumulation of plant residues over centuries. Areas with peat soils are nowadays drained in order to produce grass for milk production. Howev ...
