Visible and Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy for Investigating Soil Mineralogy: A Review [PDF]
Journal of Spectroscopy, 2018 Clay minerals are the most reactive and important inorganic components in soils, but soil mineralogy classifies as a minor topic in soil sciences. Revisiting soil mineralogy has been gradually required.

Role of Clay Mineralogy in the Stabilization of Soil Organic Carbon in Olive Groves under Contrasted Soil Management [PDF]
, 2022 Cropland soils are key systems in global carbon budgets due to their high carbon-sequestration potential. It is widely accepted that clays are one of the soil components that have a significant effect on the stabilisation of soil organic carbon (SOC ...

Artificial Soils Reveal Individual Factor Controls on Microbial Processes
mSystems, 2022 Soil matrix properties influence microbial behaviors that underlie nutrient cycling, greenhouse gas production, and soil formation. However, the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of soils makes it challenging to untangle the effects of different matrix ...

WETLAND'S REVEGETATION IMPACT ON SOME SOIL PROPERTIS AT MANZALA REGION, EGYPT. [PDF]
Journal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2009 This study was done on wetlands of ManzalaLake, northeastern Nile Delta of Egypt, to evaluate the changes of some soil properties after rehabilitation and cropping for 10 years. Soil samples (0-80 cm depth) were collected randomly from selected sites in

Mineral Classification of Soils Using Hyperspectral Longwave Infrared (LWIR) Ground-Based Data
Remote Sensing, 2019 Soil mineralogy is an important factor affecting chemical and physical processes in the soil. Most common minerals in soils—quartz, clay minerals and carbonates—present fundamental spectral features in the longwave infrared (LWIR) region. The
