• Potential pasture nitrogen concentrations and uptake from autumn or spring applied cow urine and DCD under field conditions 

  Moir, James L.; Cameron, Keith C.; Di, Hong J. (MDPI, 2016-06)

  Nitrogen (N) cycling and losses in grazed grassland are strongly driven by urine N deposition by grazing ruminants. The objective of this study was to quantify pasture N concentrations, yield and N uptake following autumn ...
• A bioassay to compare the disease suppressive capacity of pasture soils 

  Dignam, B. E. A.; O'Callaghan, M.; Condron, Leo M.; Raaijmakers, J. M.; Kowalchuk, G. A.; Wakelin, S. A. (New Zealand Plant Protection Society (Inc.), 2015)

  © 2015 New Zealand Plant Protection Society (Inc.). Dynamic pathogen complexes can develop under pastures, thereby substantially reducing potential productivity. Suppression of such pathogen complexes is therefore of great ...
• High-resolution denitrification kinetics in pasture soils link N₂O emissions to pH, and denitrification to C mineralization 

  Samad, M. S.; Bakken, L. R.; Nadeem, S.; Clough, T. J.; de Klein, C. A. M.; Richards, K. G.; Lanigan, G. J.; Morales, S. E. (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2016-03-18)

  Denitrification in pasture soils is mediated by microbial and physicochemical processes leading to nitrogen loss through the emission of N₂O and N₂. It is known that N₂O reduction to N₂ is impaired by low soil pH yet ...
• Organic amendments for reducing the plant uptake of cadmium from New Zealand soils 

  Hucker, Cameron (Lincoln University, 2016-11-14)

  Cadmium (Cd) is a naturally occurring element in soils. It is a non-essential trace element that can have toxic effects on fauna at relatively low concentrations. Several studies have reported above background levels of ...
• Phosphorus fertilization by active dust deposition in a super-humid, temperate environment – Soil phosphorus fractionation and accession processes 

  Eger, A.; Almond, P. C.; Condron, L. M. (John Wiley & Sons, Inc. on behalf of the American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2013-03)

  The inventory of soil phosphorus (P) is subject to significant changes over time. The main primary form, bedrock-derived apatite P, becomes progressively lost through leaching, or transformed into more immobile and less ...
