Origins of the Pangkaimen Au Deposit in the Northern Great Xing'an Range, China: Evidence From Geochronological, Geochemical, Fluid Inclusion, and H–O–S–Pb Isotope Data

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The Pangkaimen Au–Ag deposits belong to the epithermal Au deposits, which are of great significance for guiding the research and development of this type of gold deposit. Metallogenic model diagram of Pangkaimen Au–Ag deposit. ABSTRACT The gold (Au) metallogenic belt in the northern Great Xing'an Range is characterised by the wide occurrence of the ...

Landslides in sensitive soils, Tauranga, New Zealand. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the Tauranga region sensitive soil failures commonly occur after heavy rainfall events, causing considerable infrastructure damage. Several notable landslides include a large failure at Bramley Drive, Omokoroa in 1979, the Ruahihi Canal collapse in ...

Analysing the Drivers of Cropland Footprint in Leading Agricultural Nations: Evidence From MMQR Approach

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change represents the biggest current challenge for us and for future generations. Its impact on agriculture is undeniable, considering the food security goal. Thus, the cropland footprint has been distinguished as a comprehensive index for assessing the impact of environmental changes in agricultural areas determined by the increased ...

Prediction of water retention of soils from the humid tropics by the nonparametric k-nearest neighbor approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Nonparametric approaches such as the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) approach are considered attractive for pedotransfer modeling in hydrology; however, they have not been applied to predict water retention of highly weathered soils in the humid tropics ...

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

open access: yesLethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Moessbauer Spectroscopy for Lunar Resource Assessment: Measurement of Mineralogy and Soil Maturity [PDF]

open access: yes
First-order assessment of lunar soil as a resource includes measurement of its mineralogy and maturity. Soils in which the mineral ilmenite is present in high concentrations are desirable feedstock for the production of oxygen at a lunar base.

Effects of Polyvalent Cations on FTIR Spectra of Organic Matter–Cation Associations

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The composition of soil organic matter (SOM) can be characterized by functional groups in the organic matter (OM). The carboxylic acid and carboxylate groups of OM show specific absorption bands in Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. However, cation–OM interactions may affect absorption bands and limit spectral interpretation
