    Process rates of nitrogen cycle in uppermost topsoil after harvesting in no-tilled and ploughed agricultural clay soil

    No-till is considered an agricultural practice beneficial for the environment as soil erosion is decreased compared to ploughed soils. For on overall evaluation of the benefits and disadvantages of this crop p...

    A 3-year exposure to CO2 and O3 induced minor changes in soil N cycling in a meadow ecosystem

    We investigated the individual and interactive effects of moderately elevated CO2 (ambient air + 100 ppm) and/or O3 (40–50 ppb) on soil N cycling and microbial biomass N in a 3-year open-top chamber experiment co...

    Influence of decomposer food web structure and nitrogen availability on plant growth

    We studied the sensitivity of soil microbial communities and ecosystem processes to variation in the vertical and horizontal structure of decomposer food web under nitrogen poor and N-enriched conditions. Micr...

    Comparison of Biolog and Phospholipid Fatty Acid Patterns to Detect Changes in Microbial Community

    To determine phenotypic composition of microbial communities in soil, community level physiological profiles by Biolog® GN microtiter plates, and phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis were applied. An incuba...
