“…Furthermore, Strong et al (1999) discuss the role of the soil matrix in N mineralization, hypothesizing that soil wetting cycles may result in the movement of N into microbial-laden pores. Concomitantly, biochar has been reported to increase moisture holding capacity (Chen et al, 2010;Glaser et al, 2002;Novak et al, 2012), which likewise held true for this study (data not shown). This increase in water storage, along with movement of N into areas of high microbial activity, may account for the strong correlation between microbial abundance and % N in this study.…”

“…In a field study by Castaldi et al (2011), while they reported no negative impacts on amending soils with a wood-derived biochar, increases in microbial activity were only transient. If this proved to be the case in the longer-term for the biochar treatment examined in this study, physico-chemical benefits in the form of increased carbon storage, aggregate formation, and water holding capacity could still be realized (Novak et al, 2012).…”

“…Basso et al [49] reported similar results (≈23 % increase) in gravity-drained water content in a sandy Midwest soil relative to an untreated control. Higher water storage for a sandy soil from the Southeastern USA Coastal Plain was reported by Novak et al [48] with an additional 1.5 cm of water stored per 15 cm of soil after 2 % (w w −1 ) addition of switchgrass biochar. Biochar additions to soils have had mixed results with regard to modifying soil hydraulic conductivity (K sat ) or water infiltration rates.…”

“…Almost 100 years later, Tryon [45] was the first to demonstrate that soil texture was a critical factor controlling the impact of biochar on hydraulic properties. More recently, considerable attention has been given to using biochar to modify soil water hydraulics including water holding capacity and available water content [46][47][48][49][50], as well as soil hydraulic conductivity [51][52][53][54]. Laird et al [47] reported that the addition of 1 to 2 % hardwood biochar to a Midwestern USA Mollisol increased gravity drained water retention by 15 % relative to the untreated control but did not affect soil moisture content measured at soil water potentials of 33 or 1500 kPa (field capacity and wilting point, respectively) [41].…”
