The goal is to create a physics-informed machine learning model of soil burn severity that not only predicts wildfire impacts ...

Post-fire water repellency and soil vulnerability One of the challenges identified in these arid soils is their natural tendency to repel water, a phenomenon influenced by organic matter ...

Fire and burning of biomass lead to the removal ... Erosion, deposition, and the persistence of soil organic matter: mechanistic considerations and problems with terminology.

Fragile highland ecosystems showed low resilience to fire, which renders them more vulnerable to long-term degradation.

Improve your soil by making biochar ... Basically, it’s organic matter that is burned slowly, with a restricted flow of oxygen, and then the fire is stopped when the material reaches the ...

Soil pH or soil reaction is an indication of the acidity or alkalinity of soil and is measured in pH units. Soil pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration. The pH scale ...

Once the wind picked up, you don’t know what it’s carrying," said Jenks resident Ryan Reynolds. "Especially once the ashes ...

Aa Aa Aa Organic matter is a key component of soil that affects its physical, chemical, and biological properties, contributing greatly to its proper functioning on which human societies depend.

A study of 82 sites in 21 counties by Iowa State University showed that in the 50 years from 1959, soil structure and levels of organic matter had degraded while acidity had increased.
