PHOSPHATE AND SULFATE RETENTION BY NONVOLCANIC SOILS WITH ANDIC PROPERTIES
Soil Science, 2001Soils with andic properties have a high anion retention capacity, which is mainly related to the large amounts of active Al and Fe compounds that they contain. The phosphate (PO 4 ) and sulfate (SO 4 ) sorption capacity of soils with andic properties from Galicia, NW Spain, was investigated.

Classification of anthrosols with vitric/andic properties derived from lignite ash
Geoderma, 2005To test the applicability of the Soil Reference Base of Soil Resources (ISSS/ISRIC/FAO, 1998. World Reference Base for Soil Resources, World Soil Resources Report 84, FAO, Rome) for soils derived from anthropogenic substrates, soils developed on lignite ashes in Germany which have some similarities with andosols were compared with natural volcanic ...

ANDIC SOILS OF THE INLAND PACIFIC NORTHWEST, USA: PROPERTIES AND ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Soil Science, 2005Holocene tephra from the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Mazama in southwestern Oregon is an important component of many soils east of Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest region. This article examines ecologically important properties of these tephra-influenced soils.

Expression of andic and spodic properties in tephra-influenced soils of northern Idaho, USA
Geoderma, 1993Abstract Tephra from Mount Mazama (Crater Lake) has strongly influenced genesis and morphology of forest soils in the Selkirk Mountains of northern Idaho. Characteristics associated with Andisols and their intergrades are common in soils throughout the area. In addition, tephra-influenced soils of the higher elevations exhibit properties of Spodosols

Abstract In volcanic soils of the Solofrana valley (south-western Italy), contamination by Cr and Cu occurs as a consequence of agricultural practices and surface deposition of polluted river sediments by periodic floods. In this study, the metal distribution in micromorphological features and clay fractions ( − 1 ).

Significance of loess addition in relation to andic soil properties of volcanic ash soils
Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1993Abstract Sixty two soil-loess combinations using 2 loess samples from China and 6 volcanic ash soils from Japan were studied to determine the contribution of loess to some of the chemical properties of Andisols. Prior to mixing- the loess with the soil samples, CaCO3 was removed by pretreating the loess samples with a sodium acetate buffer solution ...

Dielectric properties of a tilled sandy volcanic-vesuvian soil with moderate andic features
Soil and Tillage Research, 2013The apparent dielectric constant, e, of many agricultural soils, measurable with the Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) method, may be used to estimate soil water content, u, with the Topp's empirical model. However, organic soils and those of volcanic origin do not obey this model, which has been termed ''universal''.

Expression of andic properties in soils from Galicia (NW Spain) under forest and agricultural use
European Journal of Soil Science, 2004Summary The organic matter (OM) of soils with andic properties has long been considered highly stable because of the presence of Al–humus complexes and sorption of organic ligands onto amorphous compounds. In this study, we characterized soils under different land use regimes located within an amphibolitic massif ...

On typologically relevant properties of Andic verbal grammatical systems
Voprosy JazykoznanijaDespite the fact that Andic languages ( East Caucasian) are widely recognised as agglutinating, their verbal systems barely demonstrate any agglutinating properties. The most important characteristics of these systems are the incomplete orthogonality of grammatical categories and the related properties of semantic non-additivity or morphological ...

Hydropedological importance of calcic diagnostic horizons and andic diagnostic properties
2012Diagnostic horizons and diagnostic properties have a fundamental importance for soil classification (e.g. WRB, Soil Taxonomy) and also for applications in pedology (e.g. land evaluation). Then soil databases (and soil maps) typically contain information regarding the presence and thickness of diagnostic horizons.
