A Quali-quantitative evaluation approach to pedodiversity by multivariate analysis: introduction to the concept of "pedocharacter" [PDF]

, 2012
A model has been developed for the interpretation of the complexity of pedological systems; this is referred to as “pedocharacter”. The main aim of the model was to reduce the variables able to define soils and their relationships with the environment ...

A pedogeomorphic strategy for tidal marsh carbon accounting

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Tidal marsh soils have some of the largest carbon stocks of any ecosystem, yet uncertainty remains about the best approach to quantify these C stocks. We tested whether separating tidal marshes into pedogeomorphic units (PGUs) could improve regional‐scale blue C accounting in two separate regions on the Atlantic coast: southern New England (NE)

Complementary geophysical, geomorphometric and pedological approaches for characterizing shallow and deep subsurface materials in a colluvial‐alluvial plain in Atlantic rainforest

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 15, December 2025.
This study combines GPR, 2D ERT and UAV‐derived terrain models to characterize sediment variability in a colluvial‐alluvial plain. GPR identified sandy lenses and clay‐rich layers, while ERT revealed deeper conductive and resistive zones, including a gneissic basement.

Adjusting Bulk Density Observations in the Hungarian Soil Information and Monitoring System Using Pedotransfer Functions

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
ABSTRACT Bulk density (BD) is among the most important physical soil properties, influencing many other soil properties, functions and services. An earlier study revealed that BD observations in the Hungarian Soil Information and Monitoring System (SIMS) contain errors and need correction.

PEDOMETRIA APOIADA EM ATRIBUTOS TOPOGRÁFICOS COM OPERAÇÕES DE TABULAÇÃO CRUZADA POR ÁLGEBRA DE MAPAS PEDOMETRIC TECHNIQUES SUPPORTED IN TOPOGRAPHICAL ATTRIBUTES OF OPERATIONS FOR CROSS-TABULATION OF ALGEBRA MAPS

, 2012
Because soils show a strict relationship with relief, distributions of soil units can be inferred from topography analyses. Geoprocessing techniques can be used to create parametric relief representations from digital terrain models (DTMs), and these ...
