Short summary
Short summary
Field-based measurements of soil health under various conservation management practices have been compiled in the global Soil Health Database (SoilHealthDB). In this study, we updated and standardized it into SoilHealthDB-V2 and analyzed soil health indicators using correlation and bootstrap methods. SoilHealthDB-V2 aims to provide a robust and globally relevant foundation for soil health assessment and to support the development of evidence-based conservation management strategies.

Short summary
There is a strong link between nitrogen availability and iron minerals in soils. These minerals have multiple outcomes for nitrogen availability depending on soil conditions and properties. For example, iron can limit microbial degradation of nitrogen in aerated soils but has opposing outcomes in non-aerated soils. This paper focuses on the multiple ways iron can affect nitrogen bioavailability in soils.
There is a strong link between nitrogen availability and iron minerals in soils. These minerals...
