Cold desert soil formation in Heritage Range, Ellsworth Mountains, West Antarctica [PDF]
The Ellsworth Mountains represent a significant gap in pedological studies in Antarctica, particularly concerning soil formation at the local level. This study focused on 22 soil profiles from the southern portion of the Ellsworth Mountains, developed on

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Calcium and Multi‐Isotope Constraints on Cation Exchange in Groundwater
Abstract Cation exchange is one of the most important processes in water‐rock interaction in the presence of clay minerals, with a common Ca‐Mg‐Na exchange system. However, systematic verification of Ca isotopes for tracing cation exchange in natural environments is lacking due to overlapping factors, such as dissolution‐precipitation of Ca‐minerals ...

ABSTRACT A geoarcheological study of two large, stratified Indigenous pit features discovered at two Jesuit mission sites in Québec (Canada) was carried out to offer a detailed documentation of their contents and better understand their use over time. One of the pits is a 17th c.

ABSTRACT The archaeological site of Las Estacas Cave (NW Tenerife, Canary Islands) preserves some of the earliest human occupations in Tenerife, dating to the 2nd century CE, spanning the entire pre‐European time range up to the 15th century. Using soil micromorphology, this study applies a geoarchaeological approach to reconstruct site formation ...

The parent material as the dominant factor in Holocene pedogenesis in the Uruguay River Basin
En la cuenca del río Uruguay (Sudamérica; 365.000 km²) ocurrió una pedogénesis generalizada durante el Optimum Climaticum del Holoceno, aproximadamente entre 8.500 y 3.500 años antes del presente.

Rates of soil-forming processes in three main models of pedogenesis
Rates of soil-forming processes were evaluated for the three major models of pedogenesis: (1) normal “top-down” soil development (pedogenesis transforms the parent material under a geomorphically stable surface), (2) soil development accompanied by ...
