Soil Science is a critical field that explores the dynamic and intricate world beneath our feet—the soil. This multidisciplinary discipline combines elements of geology, chemistry, biology, and environmental science to understand the composition, structure, processes, and functions of soils. Soil scientists study how soils influence plant growth, nutrient cycling, water retention, and the overall health of ecosystems.
Soil Science investigates topics such as soil formation, soil classification, soil fertility, and soil conservation. By analyzing soil properties, interactions, and management practices, soil scientists contribute to sustainable agriculture, environmental conservation, and land management strategies. Understanding soils is essential for ensuring food security, maintaining ecosystem health, and mitigating the impact of climate change.
Open Access Policy refers to a set of principles and guidelines aimed at providing unrestricted access to scholarly research and literature. It promotes the free availability and unrestricted use of research outputs, enabling researchers, students, and the general public to access, read, download, and distribute scholarly articles without financial or legal barriers. In this response, I will provide you with an overview of the history and latest resolutions related to Open Access Policy.
This research used the improved export coefficient model to estimate non-point source load in sub-watersheds and a self-organizing map model to identify the correlation relationship of factors, that can be affected by non-point source load in Yangtze River Basin. Research results indicate that total nitrogen load is 4.87 - 15.53 kg/ha; total phosphorus load is 0.18 - 0.51 kg/ha; Dong Ting Lake sub-basin has the lowest contribution value of total nitrogen and phosphorus; Tai Lake sub-basin has the highest contribution load of total nitrogen and ...total phosphorus; Jinsha River sub-basin reveals the highest value of total nitrogen and phosphorus contribution on grassy land and desert land; Tai Lake sub-basin has the highest total nitrogen and total phosphorus load on forest, agricultural land, and urban construction land. The correlation relationship of factors reveals a very close correlation with each other as precipitation, total nitrogen load, and total phosphorus load factors have correlation in the highest value, in which total nitrogen load and total phosphorus load factors have a close correlation with each other from the lowest value to highest value; wetland and barren land factors correlate with the lowest value and the highest value; agricultural land, forestland, and grassy land factors correlate with one another in the high value and the highest value. The forest cover rate factor, as well as the population factor, does not correlate with other factors.

This research used the calculating method of dry deposition to estimate SO2 dry deposition value and evaluate its trend in 5 recent years. The results indicate that SO2 emission at Northern sites is more changing than Southern ones in months by affecting meteorology and weather. Summer and autumn seasons have SO2 emitted concentrations higher than other seasons in 2019, 2020, and 2022 year at Yen Bai, Hoa Binh, and Ha Noi stations. The 2021 year has the highest SO2 dry deposition and the 2019 year has the lowest SO2 dry deposition in 5 recent y...ears. The Hanoi site has the highest SO2 dry deposition value from 2019 to 2022 year. Hoa Binh site has the highest SO2 dry deposition at 2.45 kg/ha/year in 2023. High SO2 dry deposition occurs normally in the summer and autumn (from April to August). Southern sites have lower SO2 dry deposition amounts with not much change than the Northern sites of Vietnam. The increasing trend of SO2 dry deposition happened from 1999 to 2023 year and it increases sharply from 1999 to 2021. Therefore, SO2 dry deposition will have a light-increasing trend in the future.
