The scientific aim of this article is to elucidate the effects various tillage practices on soil properties and crop yields; additionally, it seeks highlight significant potential specific farming systems in enhancing organic carbon, thereby positively influencing CO2 emissions from soil. In experimental station Vytautas Magnus University, Kaunas District, Lithuania (54°52′50″ N 23°49′41″ E), a long-term field experiment has been established since 1999, studies have conducted 2003. site classified as Epieutric Endocalcaric Planosol (Endoclayic, Episiltic, Aric, Drainic, Endoraptic, Uterquic), according World Reference Base (WRB, 2022). Two primary factors were assessed. Factor A incorporated straw removal versus chopping spreading, while B evaluated spectrum techniques: conventional deep plowing two no-tillage practices, one which involved cover crops. findings study increase SOC stocks across all treatments over 20-year period. Notably, coupled with spreading chopped straw, demonstrated most substantial growth levels, particularly top 0–10 cm layer. This trend underscores effectiveness minimizing disturbance incorporating matter boosting stocks. different influence Initially, direct sowing into uncultivated land, both without crops, led notable reduction compared plowing. However, effect was found vary cycle plant, highlighting dynamic interaction between properties, environmental conditions. Collaborative research efforts that involve farmers, scientists, policymakers, other stakeholders are crucial for development holistic, practical, scalable solutions enhance sustainability productivity agricultural systems. contributes growing body knowledge sustainable agriculture, providing insights agronomists, policymakers their quest promote environmentally sound productive

Abstract Key message A Soil Monitoring Law to improve soil health across all land uses has been proposed by the European Commission. As forests soils have different chemical and physical properties as well biogeochemical dynamics compared agricultural land, they also face challenges in maintaining restoring health. Examples are acidification, eutrophication atmospheric deposition, responses climate change, loss of biodiversity. Therefore, we propose forest specific descriptors thresholds based on experience knowledge from existing long-term monitoring programs.

Abstract Soil microfauna play a crucial role in maintaining multiple functions associated with soil phosphorous, nitrogen and carbon cycling. Although both diversity multifunctionality are strongly affected by climate warming, it remains unclear how their relationships respond to different levels of warming. We conducted 3‐year multilevel warming experiment five treatments subtropical primary forest. Using infrared heating systems, the surface temperature plots was maintained at 0.8, 1.5, 3.0 4.2°C above ambient (control). Our findings indicated that low‐level (+0.8–1.5°C) increased multifunctionality, as well nematode protist diversity, compared control. In contrast, high‐level (+4.2°C) significantly reduced these variables. also identified significant positive correlations between 0–10 cm layer. Notably, we found did not change under 3.0°C treatment. results imply increase around 3°C may represent critical threshold forests, which is great importance for identifying response measures global from perspective soil. provide new evidence on regulate varying degrees forests.

Biodiversity has important implications for the sustainable development of cities. Given paucity ground-based experiments, responses biodiversity to urbanization and its associated controls on a global scale remain largely unexplored. We present novel conceptual framework quantifying direct indirect impacts in 1523 cities worldwide using 100 m grid intactness index data (2017–2020) as proxy biodiversity. The results show pervasive positive impact cities, with mean 24.85 ± 9.97% 16.18 10.92%, respectively. is relatively large highly urbanized eastern United States, Western Europe, Middle East. predominantly influenced by intensity, population density, background climate. correlation between intensity most pronounced across all climate zones, while other driving variables influencing effect exhibited considerable variations. Furthermore, our findings indicate that are conditions Our have understanding future urban
