TY - T1 - Long-term effects of softwood biochar on soil physical properties, greenhouse gas emissions and crop nutrient uptake in two contrasting boreal soils SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/329739 T3 - A1 - Kalu, Subin; Simojoki, Asko; Karhu, Kristiina; Tammeorg, Priit A2 - PB - Y1 - 2021 LA - eng AB - Biochars (BC) have tremendous potential in mitigating climate change, and offer various agricultural and environmental benefits. However, there is limited information about the long-term effects of added biochars particularly from boreal regions. We studied the effects of a single application of softwood biochars on two contrasting boreal agricultural soils (nutrient-poor, coarse textured Umbrisol and fertile, fine-textured Stagnosol), both with high initial soil organic carbon contents, over ei...
