    Redox Potential

    Redox potential (Eh) and pH are two important factors that play significant roles in soil/plant/microorganism systems. They act as drivers, influencing various processes and interactions within these systems. This transdisciplinary overview aims to provide an integrated understanding of the relationships between redox potential, pH, and the functioning of soil/plant/microorganism systems. Thus, highlighting potential opportunities for…

    Soil Test

    A soil test involves the process of analyzing a sample of soil to determine its characteristics and quality. Scientists, farmers, turf caretakers, gardeners, and agricultural experts are all know to conduct soil testing. Assessing fertility, pH levels, nutrient content, and composition, are common reasons for conducting soil testing. Soil Testing Specifically, the benefits achieved by…

    Aeration

    Aeration is the process of introducing air or oxygen into a substance or environment. In the context of soil, aeration refers to the loosening or perforation of the soil to promote the exchange of air and water between the soil and its surroundings. Aeration enhances root growth, nutrient absorption, and soil structure in lawns, gardens,…

  • Bacteria Roles in the Carbon Cycle

    Bacteria Roles in the Carbon Cycle

    Indeed, bacteria play several important roles in the carbon cycle, which is the biogeochemical cycle that describes the flow of carbon between the atmosphere, land, and oceans. 1. Decomposition: Firstly, bacteria are primary decomposers in ecosystems. They break down dead organic matter, such as plants and animals, releasing carbon dioxide (CO2) back into the atmosphere.…

    Graphite vs. Carbon

    A Diamond Is Forever – Graphite vs. Carbon Graphite and diamond are both crystalline forms of pure carbon. The permanence of the carbon bonds separate them from all other forms of carbon. Well documented, soil carbon is extremely important. Soil metagenomics illusidates the carbon function. Specific application to nitrification and dentrification has been used to…
