: Records of changes in the phytosociological structure of vegetation can be observed more clearly in soils that have more significant accumulation of organic matter, like those occurring in high-mountain environments.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Modelling hillslope soil profiles using a coupled pedogenesis and landform evolution model
Understanding the dynamic evolution of soil profiles on hillslopes is essential for predicting the soilscape response to future climatic changes. In this study, the evolution of soil profiles under different weathering and soil production functions is ...

Weathering of Rhyolites and Soil Formation in an Atlantic Forest Fragment in Northeastern Brazil
Weathering and pedogenesis have been studied for a wide range of rocks and climates around the world. However, the eruption of rhyolitic magmas is a rare geological event, which leads to few studies associated with the rhyolite-soil-landscape ...

ABSTRACT Deciphering sediment provenance is essential to understand depositional patterns and dynamics. This question is particularly important in archaeological contexts to constrain the sedimentological history of unearthed material—an information critically needed, for example, to estimate the age of the deposits—or to apprehend sediment movement ...

Pedogenesis problems on reclaimed coal mining sites
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.

Soilscape of west-central Taiwan: Its pedogenesis and geomorphic implications
Five different soil types, including Entisol, Inceptisol, Alfisol, Ultisol and Oxisol, are distributed across west-central Taiwan. These soils cover the surfaces of three geological terrains, namely, the Pleistocene anticline, the Holocene coastal plain,

ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Mineralogical Characteristics and The Pedogenetic Processes of Soils on Coral Reefs in Ambon
http://dx.doi.org/10.17014/ijog.vol4no1.20093The mineralogical characteristics of soils developed on coral reef parent materials in Hitu and Wailiha, Ambon, were investigated regarding to the relationship to pedogenesis.
