Metalloids, Soil Chemistry and the Environment
2010This chapter reviews physical chemical properties, origin and use ofmetalloids and their relevance in the environment. The elements boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), polonium (Po) and astatine (At) are considered metalloids.

English has no exact translation for the French word terroir. But terroir is one of the few words to evoke passion in any discussion about soils. One reason may be that wine is one product of the land where the consumer can ascribe a direct link between subtle variations in the character of the product and the soil on which it was grown.

The soiled environment: bubble, bubble, soil in trouble
Medical Journal of Australia, 2002There are many contaminated soil sites in Australia. Contamination may be from human activities (eg, smelters, industrial waste dumps, old gasworks) or from naturally occurring sources (eg, surface mineralisation). Concentrations of contaminants may vary markedly across a site. Their distribution may be localised or quite extensive. Common contaminants

Soils in Harmony with the Environment
2016Soil, like air and water, is critical to terrestrial life on Earth. Soil is out of sight and easy to overlook, yet intrinsically beautiful. Earth has a diversity of landscapes from Antarctic deserts to tropical rainforests, each with a complex variety of soils.

Abstract Within any landscape there is an incredible range of soil types resulting from variation in soil-forming factors, namely parent material, climate, topography, time, and biota. This chapter introduces the soil-forming factors and how they influence the physical and chemical properties of soils.

Manipulation of Soil Environment to Create Suppressiveness in Soils
1989Recognition of the occurence of soils that suppress diseases due to soil-borne plant pathogens led to the basic concept of soil suppressiveness or as we proposed in french “soil receptivity to diseases” (Alabouvette et al 1982; Corman et al 1986; Louvet in this book).

Pseudomonas in the Soil Environment
2004The soil environment provides a maximum of ecological opportunity (vacant niche space) and competition, considered by Darwin22 to be the main causes of diversity patterns among species. Although this theoretical basis was not developed for microorganisms, it seems plausible that diversification among soil microorganisms including Pseudomonas spp ...

Frost and the Soil Environment
2015Frost has pronounced influences on soils and landscapes of Iceland. The soils are generally very frost susceptible and rich in silt. Colloidal constituents of the soils retain large quantities of water but behave like silt with rapid hydraulic conductivity and frost susceptibility .
