Carbon storage and DNA absorption in allophanic soils and paleosols [PDF]
Andisols and andic paleosols dominated by the nanocrystalline mineral allophane sequester large amounts of carbon (C), attributable mainly to its chemical bonding with charged hydroxyl groups on the surface of allophane together with its physical ...

Assessment and forecast of soil formation under irrigation in the steppe zone of Ukraine [PDF]
Simulation of changes in energy costs of soil formation during the period of irrigation reclamation in the steppe zone has been performed using Wavelets analysis. A method has been proposed for the evaluation of natural anthropogenic soil forming process

Gypsic soils in the Brazilian Semiarid [PDF]
Globally, soils with gypsic horizons cover approximately 1 million km², predominantly in arid climates. The formation of pedogenic gypsum in soils has been a topic of discussion in pedological studies for some time, with gypsification representing the ...

Modelling pedogenesis in the anthropocene
The objective of this paper is to develop a framework for pedogenetic modelling in the Anthropocene, i.e., the present geological epoch during which humanity has become the main factor impacting the environment. We review the concepts of soil evolution as well as 15 existing quantitative models to determine the features of soil evolution modelling in ...
