Potential benefits of liming to acid soils on climate change mitigation and food security
Global Change Biology, 2021Globally, about 50% of all arable soils are classified as acidic. As crop and plant growth are significantly hampered under acidic soil conditions, many farmers, but increasingly as well forest managers, apply lime to raise the soil pH.

Changes in soil pH and mobility of heavy metals in contaminated soils
European Journal of Soil Science, 2021In the present paper, the authors attempt to explain the importance of pH in soil environment studies and show what mistakes to avoid when measuring pH and interpreting the results obtained.

Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1984
A summary of important chemical properties of soil is given and the way in which acid rain may affect these properties is discussed. Acid rain may suppress microbiological decomposition and nitrification processes, thus influencing the nutrient status of soils.

A soil is acidic if the pH value of the soil solution is less than 7.0. This condition is met in many soils where rainfall exceeds evapotranspiration, including Alfisols, Histosols, Inceptisols, Oxisols, Spodosols, and Ultisols—almost half of the ice-free land area worldwide.

Outlook on Agriculture, 1982
Although their occurrence is sporadic, the world's total area of pyritic soils is enormous. Such soils can be virtually worthless due to an accumulation of acid sulphate resulting from the oxidation of pyrite, but techniques have been developed—based particularly on careful control of the water table—to bring them into productive cultivation.

Acidic sulfate soils are formed from potential acidic sulfate soils that are characterized by the accumulation of pyrite (FeS2). Upon drainage of these soils, the pyrite oxidizes to produce sulfuric acid and hence acidic sulfate soils. The acid formed commonly decreases the soil’s pH to less than 4, and sometimes the pH becomes as acid as 2.
