1. Short-Term Changes in Soil Properties Following Simulated Wildfire After Winter Wheat Harvest Wildfires on croplands can destroy residue cover, soil organic matter and negatively impact crops yields in semi-arid Great. Approximately 16 acre field of winter wheat stubble was subjected to wildfire event at Kansas State University Agricultural Research Center near Hays, KS to study management strategies that can restore soil health in croplands impacted by wildfires. Control burning to stimulated wildfire was done in summer 2025 by igniting fire on a down-wind corner at the interface... P. Akporsoe, A. Obour, J. Holman, K. Harmoney, Z. Carson, L. Simon, D.

2. Carbon & Nitrogen Transformation in Soil After Biosolids or Inorganic Fertilizer Application Biosolids are nutrient rich organic residues which could be a potential alternative to conventional fertilizers. However, their C and N mineralization rates vary depending on treatment processes and soil properties. A laboratory incubation was carried out to evaluate C and N dynamics in contrasting soils by quantifying gaseous losses and assessing N transformations between organic and inorganic pools. Soils collected from Texas (sandy clay loam, pH: 8.4) and Florida (sandy loam, pH: 7.6) were... S. Bhatta, L. Slaughter, M. Siebecker, J. Adjei, K. Lewis, O. Gecgel, C. Alvarez-pugliese, K.
