Chemical weathering of the volcanic soils of Isla Santa Cruz (Galápagos Islands, Ecuador) [PDF]
, 2014 We present a study on weathering of volcanic soils using 43 profiles (131 horizons) sampled in Santa Cruz Island (Galapagos Islands). Several weathering indices, based on chemical composition, are used. Since the geological material is highly homogeneous

Fluoride removal by adsorption on thermally treated lateritic soils
Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Ethiopia, 2012 The ability of lateritic soils to remove fluoride from water has been studied. Important issues considered in the study include the relation between the mineral composition of soils and their ability to remove fluoride, the effect of thermal treatment of

Validation of a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Forensic Soils Investigation in Brazil
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do SoloSoil traces are useful as forensic evidence due to their potential to transfer and adhere to different types of surfaces on a range of objects or persons. Several works have been developed in forensic soils, under different analytical approaches. However,
