OrganismsN N TransOrganic MatterSoil
Taxonomy
N - 100
• Transformation of organic N to inorganic N.
Mineralization
N- 200
• Leaching, volatilization, denitrification, immobilization
N losses
N - 300
• Gaseous loss of N under high moisture situations in the presence of a C source
Denitrification
N- 400
• Stable compost releases N through this process
Mineralization
N - 500
• Recalcitrant compounds of high molecular weight resulting from the breakdown of plant residues and the microbial biomass
Humus
Taxonomy - 100
• The great group Haplaquolls belongs to this soil order.
Mollisols!!! And you
Better know this one
Taxonomy - 200
• The great group Hapludoll belongs to this soil order, soil moisture regime, and will support this major crop.
Mollisols, udic, corn
Taxonomy - 300
• When comparing these two soil subgroups, which one is the “wettest?”
• Typic Haplaquolls• Aquic Hapludolls
Typic Haplaquolls
Taxonomy- 400
• Place the following three soils in correct order from high to low elevation in a soil toposequence.
• Clarion—Typic Hapludolls• Webster—Typic Haplaquolls• Nicollet—Aquic Hapludolls
Clarion, Nicollet, Webster
Taxonomy - 500• Place the following three soils in correct order from high to low elevation in a soil toposequence.• Clarion—Typic Hapludolls• Markey—Typic Borosaprists• Webster—Typic Haplaquolls• Nicollet—Aquic Hapludolls
Clarion, Nicollet, Webster, Markey
Organic Matter - 100
• Tillage causes the loss of this compound
Carbon dioxide—CO2
Organic Matter - 200
• Catalyse reactions but are not consumed by the reactions.
Chroma
•Enzymes
Organic Matter - 300
• An aerobic process whereby C:N ratios decrease through microbial degradation
Composting
Organic Matter - 400
• Filamentous organism that attach to plant roots thereby providing increased root mass and nutrient uptake
Mycorrhizal fungi
Organic Matter- 500
• a C:N ratio common in soil
10:1
N Transformations - 100
• N loss as nitrate out of the bottom of the root zone
Leaching
N Transformations - 200
• N loss resulting from surface application of urea
Volatilization
N Transformations . - 300
• Transformation of inorganic N to organic N
Immobilization
N Transformations . - 400
• Process by which most of the N fertilizer is made
Haber Bosch
N Transformations . - 500
• N losses from surface applied poultry litter
Volatilization
Organisms – 100
Prokaryotes
• Organisms whose DNA is not found within a membrane bound nucleus
Organisms – 200
Lichen
• This organism is a symbiotic relationship between an alga and a fungus
Organisms – 300
Heterotrophs
• Derive energy from preformed C compounds
Organisms – 400
Autotrophs
• Derive energy from carbon dioxide
Organisms – 500
Fungi
• Are filamentous organisms important to degradation of cellulose and lignin
