A comparative Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) study using a non-supervised clustering analysis and an expert knowledge based model - A case study from Ahuachapán, El Salvador [PDF]
DSM is the inference of spatial and temporal soil property variations using mathematical models based on quantitative relationships between environmental information and soil measurements.

Abstract Wind erosion is a major threat to organic soils under intensive agriculture, reducing their productivity and long‐term sustainability. Up to 2.5 cm of soil can be lost in a single storm. This study examined how soil water content and vegetation cover influence wind erosion in cultivated organic soils of the Montérégie region, Quebec, using ...

Multiscale Soil Investigations: Physical Concepts And Mathematical Techniques [PDF]
Soil variability has often been considered to be composed of “functional” (explained) variations plus random fl uctuations or noise. However, the distinction between these two components is scale dependent because increasing the scale of ...

Swelling Potential of Fine‐Grained Soil: Theory, Determination, and Validation
Abstract Swelling potential (SP) has long been used as a terminology to describe a soil's expansibility. It is commonly defined in terms of pressure or deformation under certain constraints. However, fundamentally, SP originates from the soil‐water interactions in the interlayer space of expansive minerals and should not depend on displacement or force

High-resolution computed tomography reconstructions of invertebrate burrow systems [PDF]
The architecture of biogenic structures can be highly influential in determining species contributions to major soil and sediment processes, but detailed 3-D characterisations are rare and descriptors of form and complexity are lacking.

Abstract Rainfall infiltration is a key hydrological process influencing agriculture, pollutant transport, and flood modeling. Accurate prediction of rainfall losses, defined as rainfall that does not contribute to surface runoff is critical in rainfall‐runoff models.
