Microbial Respiration in Subtropical Urban Soils Depending on Vegetation Type

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban vegetation combines invasive and introduced species with native relics, whose litter is the primary source of organic matter inputs in urban soils. Plant litter quality regulates both organic carbon (C) storage and microbial activity in urban soils.

Deshidroxilaciones y efectos Ostwald ripening en pizarras de techar

Boletín de la Sociedad Española de Cerámica y Vidrio, 2000
Roofing slates only open in wet and when they are maintained in wet from quarry. Their irreversible drying could be explained by the closure of porosity following Ostwald ripening processes of illite along the slaty cleavage interface-interphases along ...

Effect of Illite on Crystallization of Poly(vinylidene fluoride)

, 2020
Poly­(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) was blended with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-modified illite through a solvent-casting method. The effects of the content of modified illite and temperature on γ-phase PVDF crystallization were studied in ...

Bridging the small‐angle X‐ray scattering–X‐ray diffraction gap in disordered layered materials: the CLADIFFMOD unified framework

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
A unified multi‐scale framework is proposed for the consistent analysis of small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) in disordered clay minerals, combining morphology, stacking and turbostratic contributions within a single formalism.

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Complexations in illite-fulvic acid-Cu2+ systems

, 1999
As part of an extended project to illustrate how :heavy metals are complexed by natural aquatic particles, we conducted various experiments to study the adsorption of fulvic acid (FA) at aqueous illite surfaces and the complexation of heavy metal copper ...
