Molecular characteristic of phosphoric acid treated soils [PDF]
The expansive nature of soils containing high amounts of clay minerals can be altered through chemical stabilization, resulting in a material suitable for construction purposes. The primary objective of this investigation was to study the changes induced

Organic acid carriers in tolerance to toxic aluminum in wheat
: Aluminum (Al) toxicity in plants is seen in about 15% of the soils worldwide, restraining yields in arable land. In Brazil, acidic soils limit production of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and other cereals.

Extractability of slurry and fertilizer phopshorus in soil after repeated freezing [PDF]
The potential effects of freezing on phosphorus (P) chemistry in Finnish soils are not well known. We studied the effects of multiple freeze-thaw cycles on soil P chemistry in a laboratory incubation experiment with one organic and one mineral surface ...

Mineral composition through soil-wine system of portuguese vineyards and its potential for wine traceability [PDF]
The control of geographic origin is one of a highest priority issue regarding traceability and wine authenticity. The current study aimed to examine whether elemental composition can be used for the discrimination of wines according to geographical ...

Weed Species from Tea Gardens as a Source of Novel Aluminum Hyperaccumulators
Increased availability of toxic Al3+ is the main constraint limiting plant growth on acid soils. Plants adapted to acid soils, however, tolerate toxic Al3+, and some can accumulate Al in their aerial parts to a significant degree.

Expansion of Thaumarchaeota habitat range is correlated with horizontal transfer of ATPase operons. [PDF]
Thaumarchaeota are responsible for a significant fraction of ammonia oxidation in the oceans and in soils that range from alkaline to acidic. However, the adaptive mechanisms underpinning their habitat expansion remain poorly understood.

Interactions between cadmium and lead with acidic soils: Experimental evidence of similar adsorption patterns for a wide range of metal concentrations and the implications of metal migration [PDF]
The importance of high- and low-affinity surface sites for cadmium and lead adsorption in typical European and Asian soils was investigated. Adsorption experiments on surface and deep horizons of acidic brown (Vosges, France) and red loess soils (Hunan ...

Fate of the organophosphate herbicide glyphosate in arable soils and its relationship to soil phosphorus status [PDF]
Glyphosate is one of the world's most widely used herbicides. This study was undertaken to unravel the factors affecting its movement, sorption, persistence and leachability in different Finnish soils to create a sound basis for risk assessment. Field

Effect of acid rain on geotechnical properties of residual soils [PDF]
In this study, the effect of acid rain on the physico-chemical and microstructural properties of two different residual soils was investigated. In order to reproduce the process of soil-acid rain-chemical interaction, an infiltration setup was fabricated.
