Modelling photovoltaic soiling losses through optical characterization [PDF]
, 2020 The accumulation of soiling on photovoltaic (PV) modules affects PV systems worldwide. Soiling consists of mineral dust, soot particles, aerosols, pollen, fungi and/or other contaminants that deposit on the surface of PV modules.

Soil Surveys and Soil Analyses
The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1911 In undertaking a survey of the soils of a given district the methods of analysis and the classification to be adopted (which in its turn shapes the scheme of the work) must be determined by the purpose before the investigator at the outset. His end may be scientific–to assign the soils in question to their types, or practical–to give information to the

Soiling Modelling in Large Grid-Connected PV Plants for Cleaning Optimization
Energies, 2023 Soiling of PV modules is an issue causing non-negligible losses on PV power plants, between 3 and 4% of the total energy production. Cleaning is the most common way to mitigate soiling.
