Visible and Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy for Investigating Soil Mineralogy: A Review
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.

The role of conservation soil management on soil and water protection at different spatial scales [PDF]
, 2006 Agriculture has a direct impact on the soil environment, altering soil properties, surface characteristics and erosion risk. This has led to a move away from conventional tillage to the adoption of conservation practices, aiming to minimise soil ...

Response of Soil Mineral Weathering to Elevated Carbon Dioxide [PDF]
, 2002 Understanding the rates of weathering of soil minerals and the factors that may either enhance or inhibit these rates is a crucial part of understanding many processes from the watershed to the global scale.

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

Mineralogical associations with soil carbon in managed wetland soils
Global Change Biology, 2020 AbstractCarbon (C)‐rich wetland soils are often drained for agriculture due to their capacity to support high net primary productivity. Increased drainage is expected this century to meet the agricultural demands of a growing population. Wetland drainage can result in large soil C losses and the concentration of residual soil minerals such as iron (Fe)
