This study investigates how long-term phosphorus fertilization affects microbial carbon use efficiency and soil organic matter decomposition in non-allophanic Andosols, finding that P levels influence priming effects and CUE.

This study uses an artificial soil system to show how r- and K-strategist bacteria affect glucose mineralization, with B. subtilis showing rapid respiration and S. cinnamoneus slower respiration.

This paper reports a field survey in Kabwe, Zambia, assessing lead contamination through plant communities, spectral imaging, and soil/water Pb levels.
