Sound generalisations and predictions of soil processes are difficult to make with confidence because of the chemical, physical and biological variations that occur in soil at all scales in both space and time. Natural abundance studies have been use

Vegetation such as grasses and shrubs can improve slope stability, reducing the risk of shallow failures once roots have permeated soil to enhance cohesion. However, establishment of vegetation is hindered by poor soil fertility, frequently a charact

Soil management practices shown to increase carbon sequestration include reduced tillage, amendments of carbon and mixed rotations. As a means to mitigate greenhouse gases, however, the success of these practices will be strongly influenced by nitrou

UNLABELLED A barley field trial supplemented with bulky organic soil amendments, municipal compost or bovine slurry was sampled for Escherichia coli to test the hypothesis that E. coli isolated from the soil or from barley plants were derived from bo

To study the sustainability of arable agricultural systems we examined a wide range of biological, physical and chemical properties associated with changes in soil quality. We integrated these using a qualitative multi-attribute model supported by th

* Here, the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi was determined in a boreal herb-rich coniferous forest in relation to environmental variables. * Root samples of five plant species (Fragaria vesca, Galeobdolon luteum, Hepatica nobilis, Oxal

We compared patterns of understorey vegetation and abiotic factors in old-growth forests with low management intensity and young forests with high management intensity. CCA showed that disturbance gradient was the main axis of community variation, wh

Soil microbial communities play an important role in nutrient cycling and nutrient availability, especially in unimproved soils. In grazed pastures, sheep urine causes local changes in nutrient concentration which may be a source of heterogeneity in

We characterised the spatial structure of soil microbial communities in an unimproved grazed upland grassland in the Scottish Borders. A range of soil chemical parameters, cultivable microbes, protozoa, nematodes, phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) profi

The community fingerprints of both the prevalent and the metabolically active microbial community were related to a quantitative estimation of microbial biomass in an arable soil, revealed by substrate-induced-respiration (SIR). Two concentrations of
