In order to better understanding clay mineral evolution coupled with geochemical changes during weathering of igneous rocks under temperate conditions, the picrite basalt-derived soil in Dali (South China) was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and high-resolution transmission e...

There is considerable evidence that mineral dust has an important impact on alpine ecosystems, but the relationship remains unclear in some instances. In an attempt to fill this knowledge gap, we investigated 1) the mineralogical composition of dust components at Hochtor (Hohe Tauern, Austria), 2) its effects on soil formation and biological soil c...

Soil bacteria play a fundamental role in pedogenesis. However, knowledge about both the impact of climate and slope aspects on microbial communities and the consequences of these items in pedogenesis is lacking. Therefore, soil-bacterial communities from four sites and two different aspects along the climate gradient of the Chilean Coastal Cordille...

In stemflow, rainfall is collected and channeled to a concentrated soil water input. It can constitute up to 30% of incident precipitation in some ecosystems. However, the size of the zone influenced by stemflow is unclear, and statistically representative measurement of stemflow (on and in between sites) is scarce. Therefore, whether stemflow crea...

AbstractThe sequence of sediment accumulation of the first and second terraces of the Tarbagataika River and changes in the stages of incision and filling, as well as sedimentation and soil formation over the last 14 kyr in the river valley were revealed. The dynamics of the sedimentation stages and of the phases of their stabilization and pedogene...

Abstract—This paper presents the results of a study of soil cover in the Mari Chodra national park in the southeastern part of the Republic of Mari El. Magnetic properties of soddy-medium-podzolic sandy loam soils and soddy-podzolic loam soils are studied. Samples are taken along the shoreline of the karst Yalchik Lake and up the slope from the lak...

AbstractSoil microbial communities are subjected to significant changes over time. The most rapid changes caused by temperature and soil moisture alternations or the by the inflow of fresh organic matter occur during the several hours or days. They are mostly related to the soil microbial activity. Seasonal dynamics are caused by annual variations ...

AbstractThermokarst elements of topography—alases—are widely spread in areas of permafrost rocks and are represented by depressions of various sizes and shapes on the surface of plains. It has been found that their formation is related to degradation of the ice complex and subsidence and subsequent redeposition of the surrounding rocks. Complex pol...

Vpliv vetra pri nastanku tal je še precej neraziskano področje. Cilj diplomskega dela je predstaviti vse pomembnejše vplive vetra na nastanek in izvor tal. Na območju Evrope so imele velik vpliv ledene dobe. Vplivale so na več dejavnikov: pokritost tal, moč in smer vetrov, količino padavin, preperevanje kamnin, ter na vlažnost in strukturnost/povez...
