Resoiling on anthropogenically disturbed surfaces in the southern taiga subzone [PDF]
Based on investigating dated anthropogenic structures, we present the results derived from studying the development features of soddy podzolic soils over the course of the first 600 years from the zero time of soil formation.

Integrating effects of species composition and soil properties to predict shifts in montane forest carbon-water relations. [PDF]
This study was designed to address a major source of uncertainty pertaining to coupled carbon-water cycles in montane forest ecosystems. The Sierra Nevada of California was used as a model system to investigate connections between the physiological ...

The southwest Kalahari dune field has resident fine grains which may be emitted as mineral dust after protective vegetation is removed by fire. However, low wind speeds, high initial surface cover, and the protective effect of biocrusts result in the low possibility of the southwest Kalahari emitting dust post‐fire.

: 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.

A First Quantitative Assessment of Soil Health at European Scale Considering Soil Genesis
ABSTRACT Background Soil health degradation is a major threat to European food security, biodiversity, and climate stability. While scientists have debated how to define soil health during recent decades, a quantifiable framework for monitoring, management, and policy remains lacking.

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 ...

On the difference between exclosures and enclosures in ecology and the environment [PDF]
Rehabilitation of degraded land in arid and semiarid environments often involves excluding livestock from degraded sites, creating what are usually but unfortunately not consistently, called _exclosures_.
