Understanding cation exchange capacity through the landscape lens of the Busoga Catena, Uganda
Abstract This study identifies the parent material (PM) and examines cation exchange capacity (CEC) across the Busoga catena. In 2022 and 2023, we described 32 pedons and collected 147 samples. Laboratory analyses were particle size analysis, organic carbon (OC) content, pH, and CEC.

Pedogeomorphology of semiarid soils of Ulu Peninsula, James Ross Island, Antarctica
Abstract Located in a transitional climatic zone of the Antarctic continent, James Ross Island (JRI) presents soils that reflect complex interactions between lithology, topography, and pedogenesis. This study characterizes soils along a toposequence to evaluate how slope position and parent material control soil properties and weathering patterns in a ...

Improving the Numerical Solution of the Energy Equation in Land Models
Abstract The purpose of this study is to improve simulations of the energy equation in land models. Our objectives are to (a) highlight the shortcomings of current approaches for solving the energy equation in land models; (b) present improved solutions; and (c) evaluate tradeoffs between numerical errors and strict energy conservation in the energy ...

Triple Oxygen and Hydrogen Isotopes of Soil Water Across Climates, Seasons, and Depths
Abstract Soil waters are a central component of the terrestrial water cycle. Their δ2H, δ18O, and d‐excess values contain rich information about hydroclimate, including the source of moisture and its evaporative history. Paleoclimate workers seek to investigate ancient hydroclimates via triple oxygen isotope geochemistry, termed Δ′17O, which is ...
