Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

Brief Introduction of Engineering Property for Coarse Grained Soil

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract Coarse grained soil has been widely used in engineering construction for their excellent physical and mechanical properties. This paper presents the influence factors of shear strength, static and dynamic deformation characteristic of coarse grained soil, and finds that the dynamic property of coarse grained soil under cyclic ...

Research on correlation between dynamic resilient modulus and CBR of coarse-grained chlorine saline soil

open access: yes
A large area of coarse-grained saline soil is distributed in saline soil areas, and chlorine saline soil with a high salt content is a typical representative. The dynamic resilient modulus was accurately predicted using the California-bearing ratio (CBR)

Columnanidus calitzdorpensis ichnogen. ichnosp. nov: A new Middle Pleistocene subterranean termite trace fossil from South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Termites are landscape geo‐engineers whose nesting activities substantially modify the physical and chemical properties of soils. Fossilised termite nests commonly constitute the only identifiable evidence of ancient termite activity and represent valuable trace fossil archives for reconstructing past environments.

Identification and correlation of the Aso‐3 tephra in the Omaezaki area, central Japan: A valuable key stratum for the MIS 6/5 transition period

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Aso‐3 tephra is one of the most significant widespread marker layers from the Middle to Late Pleistocene, generated by a large caldera‐forming eruption at the Aso volcano in Kyushu, southwestern Japan. Despite its importance, a distal co‐ignimbrite ash correlative has yet to be clearly identified, primarily because although volcanic glass ...

Settlement predictions for coarse grained soils based on SPT results

open access: yes, 2009
Burland and Burbidge (1984) collected, presented and back-analysed more than 200 hundred case histories of settlement of full scale structures founded on coarse grained soils and proposed an empirical procedure for settlement prediction.

Influence of freeze-thaw action on hydraulic behavior of unsaturated volcanic coarse-grained soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This study aims to evaluate the effects of freeze-thaw action on the water retention-permeability characteristics of volcanic coarse-grained soils under unsaturated conditions, in order to examine the hydraulic behavior of volcanic soil during the snow ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...
