Improved water holding capacity, enhanced aggregation characteristics, suppressed acidity, reduced salinity, suppressed activities of pathogens, and enhanced activities of soil fauna contribute to biochar's performance in promoting plant growth.
“Improved water holding capacity (Bruun et al. 2022; Razzaghi et al. 2020), enhanced aggregation characteristics (Islam et al. 2021), suppressed acidity (Dai et al. 2017), reduced salinity (Wang et al. 2022f), suppressed activities of pathogens (de Medeiros et al. 2021), as well as enhanced activities of soil fauna (Lehmann et al. 2011) contribute to biochar's performance”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
