Pedogenesis problems on reclaimed coal mining sites
Soil and Water Research, 2021 Open-cast coal mining presents a big global issue because of the large areas the mines occupy, which get entirely changed. Their ecosystems lose most of their functions, and a huge amount of fertile soil gets utterly destroyed.

Modelling pedogenesis of Technosols
Geoderma, 2016 Technosols, soils subjected to a strong human influence and containing significant amounts of artefacts, are characteristic of the Anthropocene. In order to better apprehend their growing importance in our current environment, our knowledge of the evolution and fate of these soils must be improved.

Pedogenesis shapes predator-prey relationships within soil microbiomes.
Science of the Total Environment, 2022 Pedogenesis determines soil physicochemical properties and many biodiversity facets, including belowground microbial bacteria and fungi. At the local scale, top-down predation by microbial protists regulates the soil microbiome, while the microbiome also

Alluvial soil formation in the plains of northeastern Brazil [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2020 Soils in alluvial plains of the lower course of the Acaraú River, Ceará State, Brazil, are weakly developed and have a complex distribution in the landscape. This study reports the pedogenic characterization of such soils in an effort to understand their
