  2. Copiotroph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copiotroph

    Copiotrophs tend to have a lower carbon use efficiency than oligotrophs. [10] This is the ratio of carbon used for production of biomass per total carbon consumed by the organism. [ 10 ] Carbon use efficiency can be used to understand organisms lifestyles, whether they primarily create biomass or require carbon for maintenance energy.

  3. Soil microbiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Microbiology

    They are the most abundant microorganisms in the soil, and serve many important purposes, including nitrogen fixation. [9] Some bacteria can colonize minerals in the soil and help influence weathering and the breaking down of these minerals. The overall composition of the soil can determine the amount of bacteria growing in the soil.

  4. Soil health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_health

    Soil health testing is pursued as an assessment of this status [1] but tends to be confined largely to agronomic objectives. Soil health depends on soil biodiversity (with a robust soil biota), and it can be improved via soil management, especially by care to keep protective living covers on the soil and by natural (carbon-containing) soil ...

  5. Soil respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_respiration

    Soil respiration is a key ecosystem process that releases carbon from the soil in the form of carbon dioxide. Carbon is stored in the soil as organic matter and is respired by plants, bacteria, fungi and animals. When this respiration occurs below ground, it is considered soil respiration. Temperature, soil moisture and nitrogen all regulate ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbiologically_induced...

    [1] [18] [20] [21] [22] The increase in shear strength, confined compressive strength, stiffness and liquefaction resistance was reported due to calcium carbonate precipitation resulting from microbial activity. [19] [20] [22] [24] The increase of soil strength from MICP is a result of the bonding of the grains and the increased density of the ...

  7. Soil food web - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_food_web

    Soil microbial communities are characterized in many different ways. The activity of microbes can be measured by their respiration and carbon dioxide release. The cellular components of microbes can be extracted from soil and genetically profiled, or microbial biomass can be calculated by weighing the soil before and after fumigation.
