EFFECTS OF CLAY FRACTION MINERALOGY ON PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES OF A YELLOW ULTISOL TREATED WITH CHISELING [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of minerals in the clay fraction on physical attributes of Yellow Ultisol cultivated with sugarcane and prepared with two different treatments: chiseling across the entire area and chiseling only ...

Conceptual model of depth‐stratified soil acidification under long‐term no‐till in temperate (Washington, USA) and tropical (Brazilian Oxisol) systems. Nitrogen inputs promote surface acidification (↓pH) and increased Al3+ activity, while lime or silicate amendments modify base cation dynamics. Increased DOC–Al complexation reduces free Al3+ and alters

Clay Mineralogy of Red Clay Deposits from the Central Carpathian Basin (Hungary): Implications for Plio/Pleistocene Chemical Weathering and Paleoclimate [PDF]
Geochemical and mineralogical studies of palaeosols provide essential information for palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental interpretation of continental deposits and can present a proxy for palaeoclimate.

Abstract Phosphorus (P) availability in tropical soils is strongly limited by high adsorption capacity, primarily driven by mineralogical and chemical characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of soil properties on P sorption kinetics, maximum phosphorus adsorption capacity (MPAC), and P fraction distribution across 17 soil samples ...

Incipient ferralization and weathering indices along a soil chronosequence in Taiwan [PDF]
The low hilly topography of Green Island, a volcanic island off southeastern Taiwan, includes an altitudinal sequence of sub-horizontal benches. We examined eight profiles along this sequence, ranging from pale brown loamy coral sand on the lowest bench ...

ABSTRACT Sodium pyrophosphate (NaPPi) is widely used in wet‐chemical extraction methods for assessing organo‐mineral interactions (OMIs) in soils. However, its effectiveness remains debated due to challenges in achieving specific solubilization and issues such as peptization and solubilization of organic carbon (OC) not directly associated with ...

Phase behaviour of binary mixtures of diamagnetic colloidal platelets in an external magnetic field
Using fundamental measure density functional theory we investigate paranematic-nematic and nematic-nematic phase coexistence in binary mixtures of circular platelets with vanishing thicknesses.
