Soil moisture depletion has resulted in a 10.78 millimetre rise in global mean sea level (GMSL) between 1979 and 2016 equivalent to a loss of 3,941 gigatonnes (Gt) of water from land, according ...

A Minnesota crop and dairy farmer is encouraged by soil moisture levels to begin the growing season. Charles Krause milks around 350 Holstein cows near Buffalo and says he wasn’t surprised by an early ...

Figure 4. Composition of soil microbial communities of genus level under different systems. (A-C) Represent the relative abundance of bacteria, fungi and archaea at the genus levels. The vertical axis ...

Representative soil sample testing done in a Los Angeles County Public Health study found a higher percentage of samples with lead levels above health-based screening thresholds taken from parcels ...

The old lore to wee on the lemon tree after the pub on Fridays holds some truth. Urine is a good fertiliser because it contains the major nutrients – nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus – in a ...

Recent moisture mixed with some early season runoff has improved statewide soil moisture levels, moving them closer to last spring's levels. That means more water is expected to flow into streams ...

Recent research, led by the author of this article, showed that controlling moisture levels and using PLT (sodium bisulfate) are two practical strategies poultry farmers should implement to reduce ...

Combining data from satellites, sea level measurements and observations of “polar motion”, the research shows how soil moisture levels have decreased since the year 2000. The findings, published in ...

The new study has shown that a large contrast in soil moisture levels over a range of hundreds of kilometers results in atmospheric changes that increase rainfall area and amount in several ...

The new study led by the UK Center for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH) has shown that a large contrast in soil moisture levels over a range of hundreds of kilometers results in atmospheric changes ...
