Sentence examples for mean net soil from inspiring English sources

Our study shows that Stipa capillata is controlled by negative soil biota effects: mean net soil biota effect was predominantly negative, dry weight and growth rate decreased significantly when plants were grown in their 'home soil' as compared to the sterile 'control soil'.

The kriged mean net soil movement rates were −3·496, −5·026 and 1·77 kg m−2 year−1 on uncultivated grassland, cultivated grassland (farmland) and semi-shifting sand land, respectively.

To analyze local adaptation between regions (Experiment 3), we used a linear generalized least squares model, with mean net soil biota effect as a response variable, region and soil treatment as predictor variables.

Local adaptation within regions was tested with linear mixed-effects models using the nlme package in R [47], with mean net soil biota effect as a response variable, distance and region as fixed predictor variables (Experiment 2).

There was no significant difference in estimated mean net soil biota effect when plants from Europe and Asia were grown in their 'home soil' or in 'away soil' from the other region (Fig. 4).

A positive number means net borrowing has increased, while a negative figure means a decrease in net borrowing.

Mean final N levels were 0.35 mg NH+4 kg−1 soil and 1.23 mg NO−3 kg−1 soil, with a mean net N mineralization rate of 0.029 mg kg−1 dand1 and a mean nitrification rate of 0.028 mg kg−1 day−1.

It is found that this new model can predict shear modulus at very small strain resulting from an increase and a decrease in mean net stress at constant matric suction for low plasticity fine grained soils.

Mean net CO2 assimilation rate ranged from 24.3 to 28.0 and 14.2 16.2 µmol m−2 s−1 under well water and deficit soil moisture conditions respectively (Fig. 6A, B).
