Investigating potential acidification of mangrove soils in the ecological shrimp farming: A case study in Tam Giang commune of Nam Can district, Ca Mau province

Tóm tắt

Our study aimed to investigate the acidity status of mangrove soils in the ecological shrimp system to forecast their potential acidification risks. Results indicated that there were slight increases of soil acidity. High content (>5%) of soil organic carbon (SOC) in the depth of 0 – 80 cm is one of the main contributors to soil pH buffering capacity, and may help reduce sharply soil acidity changes.
