Stable isotope analysis of freshwater gastropod carbonates from Swanscombe: Insights into climate stability and seasonality during MIS 11c

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stable isotope analyses of freshwater mollusc carbonate can record environmental conditions at the time of mineralisation, yet this technique remains underused in British Middle Pleistocene fluvial sequences, despite the abundance of fossil shell material in these deposits.

Geochemical phases of Fe and degree of pyritization in sediments from Ría de Pontevedra (NW Spain): Implications of mussel raft culture

Ciencias Marinas, 2004
 To assess the influence of mussel raft systems on several geochemical and sedimentological properties (carbonate and organic matter contents, fractions of Fe and degree of pyritization), six sediment cores were collected from the Ría de Pontevedra area.

Ngarrawa (mound spring) sediments as archives of Holocene environmental change in arid central Australia: Insights from Itrax XRF scanning

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Geochemistry and mineralogy of technogenic soils developed on old mine heaps of abandoned iron ore mines in the Ławęczna area (Holy Cross Mountains, south-central Poland)

Soil Science Annual, 2018
The article presents the results of preliminary geochemical and mineralogical studies of technogenic soils (Technosols) of abandoned iron ore mines on the Ławęczna Hill near Miedziana Góra in the Holy Cross (Świętokrzyskie) Mountains, southcentral Poland.

Carbon isotope geochemistry of organic matter in volcanic paleosols constrains paleo‐environmental variations

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fiorano quarry paleosol developed within the Colli Albani volcanic district (Italy) in the time interval bracketed by the deposition of the Pozzolanelle pyroclastic‐flow unit (365 ± 4 ka) and the emplacement of the Capo di Bove lava flow (277 ± 2 ka).

First finding of Icelandic tephra in Czechia: Vedde Ash identified in palaeolake sediments of Stará Jímka

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we report the first documented occurrence of the Icelandic Vedde Ash (VA) in the Bohemian Forest, identified within palaeolake sediments from Stará Jímka, Czechia, representing the first Icelandic tephra layer identified in Czechia.

Long‐Term Nitrogen Addition Weakens the Linkage Between Phosphorus Cycling Gene Abundance and Phosphatase Activity Through Soil Acidification in a Larix gmelinii Plantation

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) enrichment propels global forest ecosystems toward phosphorus (P) limitation, theoretically triggering the upregulation of microbial P‐acquisition capacity to maintain stoichiometric balance. However, the extent to which N addition regulates this adaptive capacity remains uncertain.

Potassium Fractionation and Stock in Clay Soils: Influence of Geochemical and Mineralogical Properties in Yogyakarta Region, Indonesia

Caraka Tani: Journal of Sustainable Agriculture
Research on potassium (K) dynamics in upland clay soils, particularly those derived from tertiary-aged rocks, remains limited in Yogyakarta. This study aimed to investigate the relationships among geochemical indices, K fractions, and K stock in upland ...
