Acid Sulfate Soils and Their Impact on Surface Water Quality: A Case Study in Southeast Brazil

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
ABSTRACT Re‐flooding of previously drained and oxidised acid sulfate soils (ASSs) can stimulate reduction processes while decreasing soil acidity, thereby mitigating the harmful effects of acidity. The aim of this study is to explore the pedogenesis of ASSs in a tropical climate and to assess the impact of ASS on surface water quality at the end of the
