Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

The Geology of Aquitards in Alluvial Aquifers: A Predictive Approach Based on Facies Models. [PDF]
Ground WaterWe review facies models for alluvial aquifers and demonstrate how they can be used to predict aquifer and aquitard continuity in three dimensions. We provide case studies illustrating how facies models can be used to improve groundwater investigation and remediation outcomes.

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

Natural variability of major and trace elements in non-ornithogenic Gelisoils at Edmonson Point, northern Victoria Land, Antarctica [PDF]
Polish Polar Research, 2018 Antarctica is perceived as one of the most pristine environments on Earth, though increasing human activities and global climate change raise concerns about preserving the continent’s environmental quality. Limited in distribution, soils are particularly

Stop 2 Kainui silt loam and Naike clay, Gordonton Rd [PDF]
, 2008 At this stop are several remarkable features both stratigraphic and pedological, and a “two-storied” soil, the Kainui silt loam alongside (in just a few places) the Naike clay. Both soils are Ultisols. The sequence of tephra beds and buried soil horizons

Geologica Acta, 2021 The term “gypsiferous silts” has been used since the 1960s by many authors, but it has relied on unclear, am-biguous criteria that attributed aeolian, colluvial or alluvial origins to these materials.

Role of Arthropods in Maintaining Soil Fertility
Agriculture, 2013 In terms of species richness, arthropods may represent as much as 85% of the soil fauna. They comprise a large proportion of the meso- and macrofauna of the soil.
