Soil Health and Ecosystem Services in Mangrove Forests: A Global Overview
Fellipe A. O. Mello, Tiago O. Ferreira, Angelo F. Bernardino, Hermano M. Queiroz, Danilo C. Mello, Rafael B. Menillo e Maurício R. Cherubin Abstract This study analyzed the role of soil health (SH) and ecosystem services (ESs) in global mangrove research articles from 1958 to 2024. The SH approach is vital for evaluating mangroves’ ability […]

Mapping soil health research in the Brazilian Semiarid region: a bibliometric approach
Antonio Yan Viana Lima, Maurício Roberto Cherubin, Lucas Tadeu Greschuk, Gabriel de Almeida Mori Muniz, Douglas Monteiro Cavalcante and Arthur Prudêncio de Araujo Pereira Highlights The analysis revealed a significant increase in scientific output on SH in the Semiarid since 2020. Embrapa research centers were the main contributors to this progress. Revista Caatinga is the […]
Iron’s role in soil organic carbon (de)stabilization in mangroves under land use change
Francisco Ruiz, Angelo Fraga Bernardino, Hermano Melo Queiroz, Xosé Luis Otero, Cornelia Rumpel & Tiago Osório Ferreira Abstract Mangroves are coastal hotspots for carbon storage and yet face multiple threats from anthropogenic activities. Here we explore the role of iron-mediated organomineral interactions (FeOMIs) in soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization and their sensitivity to land use […]
Carbon farming in the living soils of the Americas
Carlos Eduardo Pellegrino Cerri, Maurício Roberto Cherubin, João Marcos Villela, Jorge Luiz Locatelli, Martha Lustosa Carvalho, Federico Villarreal, Francisco Fujita de Castro Mello, Muhammad Akbar Ibrahim, Rattan Lal Abstract Soil represents Earth’s largest terrestrial reservoir of carbon (C) and is an importantsink of C from the atmosphere. However, the potential of adopting best managementpractices (BMPs) […]
Technosols Made from Iron Mine Tailings and Construction and Demolition Waste as an Alternative for Sustainable Solid Waste Management
Beatriz Marchese Silva, Hermano Melo Queiroz, Amanda Duim Ferreira, Francisco Ruiz, Tiago Osório Ferreira Abstract Brazil faces urgent environmental challenges due to large waste production from mining and construction activities particularly regarding the disposal and management of the solid waste generated by these activities. The extraction of iron ore and the storage of tailings in […]
Soil organic carbon stocks as driven by land use in Mato Grosso State: the Brazilian Cerrado agricultural frontier
Chukwudi Nwaogu, Bridget E. Diagi, Chinonye V. Ekweogu, Adedoyin Samuel Ajeyomi, Christopher C. Ejiogu, Enos I. Emereibeole, Patrick S. U. Eneche, Onyedikachi J. Okeke, David O.

Modeling soil organic matter changes under crop diversification strategies and climate change scenarios in the Brazilian Cerrado
Jorge Luiz Locatelli, Stephen Del Grosso, Rafael Silva Santos, Mu Hong, Ram Gurung, Catherine E. Stewart, Maurício Roberto Cherubin, Cimélio Bayer, Carlos Eduardo Pellegrino Cerri Highlights Long-term soybean-cotton succession shows soil organic carbon (SOC) depletion. Complex crop rotation with cover crops showed the highest SOC sequestration rates. Including ruzigrass in succession systems can boost C […]
