Infrared Spectroscopic Predictions of Soil Properties for Agricultural Monitoring: Statistical and Soil Spectroscopic Considerations

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Pseudo‐independent validation (PIV) using regional datasets is common in visible‐to‐near‐infrared (vis–NIR) and mid‐infrared (MIR) spectroscopy studies and produces accurate predictions but is relevant only to regional‐scale monitoring of known sites.

Impact of Climate and Slope Aspects on the Composition of Soil Bacterial Communities Involved in Pedogenetic Processes along the Chilean Coastal Cordillera

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Soil bacteria play a fundamental role in pedogenesis. However, knowledge about both the impact of climate and slope aspects on microbial communities and the consequences of these items in pedogenesis is lacking. Therefore, soil-bacterial communities from

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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).

Mineral dust and pedogenesis in the alpine critical zone [PDF]

open access: yesSOIL
The influence of mineral dust deposition on soil formation in the mountain critical zone was evaluated at six sites in southwestern North America. Passive samplers collected dust for 2 years, and representative soil and rock were gathered in the vicinity

Climate‐modulated accumulation and erosion of sediments in the Rodderberg crater basin for the last 439 ka (East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial/interglacial climate cycles since marine isotope stage (MIS) 12 influenced the discontinuous and 73 m‐long sediment record from the volcanic crater of Rodderberg in the East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany. High‐resolution grain size and geochemical data have been valued by numerical dating techniques (radiocarbon and luminescence dating,

Caracterização da Vulnerabilidade Ambiental na Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Preto, Maranhão - Brasil

open access: yes, 2020
Environmental vulnerability is defined as any susceptibility of the environment to a potential impact caused by any anthropic use. The basin located in the northeast region of Maranhão state occupies an area of 5,235.63 square kilometers.

Phosphorus limits the growth of bacterial and eukaryotic primary producers in recently deglaciated High Arctic soils

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Glaciers are receding at unprecedented rates worldwide, exposing large areas of barren sediment that are quickly colonized by microbes. Nutrient availability is a critical driver of early ecosystem succession, but in the High Arctic its role has remained uncertain.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant performance in trace element‐contaminated soils with element‐specific accumulation patterns

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil contamination by toxic trace elements is a growing global challenge that threatens food safety, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem health. We combined results from many experiments worldwide to assess whether beneficial soil fungi can help plants cope with contaminated soils.

Accelerated pedogenesis in technogenic deposits in humid tropical area [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
The growing human influence on soils can degrade or improve their properties, as seen in anthropogenic black earths, which are known for their high fertility.
