20.500.12556/RUL-164690 Reducing drought vulnerability of forest soils using Xanthan gum-based soil conditioners Climate change increases the frequency and severity of droughts in many parts of Europe, thereby affecting the availability of water resources. Therefore, preserving the soil water content is essential for maintaining forest diversity and plant vitality. To improve soil hydraulic properties and reduce drought vulnerability, three xanthan-gum-based soil conditioners (SC_R, SC_CG, and SC_ZZC) were developed under the European ONEforest project. These soil conditioners (SCs), including oxide ash and cellulose fibres of different lengths, differ in their filler properties. This study evaluated the performance of these soil conditioners in forest soils in Slovenia (S1), Spain (S2), and Germany (S3). Water absorption, water retention, hydraulic conductivity, seed germination, and plant growth in the untreated soils and mixtures were analysed. soil conditioners xanthan gum forest soils soil water retention curve hydraulic conductivity seed germination plant growth dodatki k zemljinam ksantan gozdne zemljine retencijska krivulja vodoprepustnost kaljenje rast rastlin true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2024-11-07 13:16:15 2024-11-07 13:16:20 2024-11-22 14:55:23 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 15 str. iss. 21 , art. e39974 Vol. 10 Nov. 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 624.13 2405-8440 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e39974 214071811 Smolar...-Reducing_drought_vulnerability_of_forest_soils_using_Xanthan_gum-based_soil_conditioners.pdf Smolar...-Reducing_drought_vulnerability_of_forest_soils_using_Xanthan_gum-based_soil_conditioners.pdf 1 F589A889FD2A70D48539C3E91206DBE5 579d0dde1cc3b8d4190680267d407d8b37a566a749fcc022ea907bdbfeab2e16 729ff35a-9d02-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195305 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405844024160057 1 c2285789-9d01-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195304 Fakulteta za gradbeništvo in geodezijo 0 0 0
