Soil adsorption of 2,4‐D as affected by the clay mineralogy

Infiltration in cracking clay soils as affected by initial soil moisture content

Biological weathering of sepiolite clay mineral as affected by the activity of an earthworm species )Eisenia foetida(

Sepiolite is an Mg-rich fibrous clay mineral which occurs in agricultural soils of arid regions. Although many investigations have been carried out on the formation and stability of this clay mineral, no information is yet available on the mineralogical changes of this mineral by earthworms. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the effect of Eisenia foetida earthworms on sepiolite wea...

physicochemical properties, micromorphology and clay mineralogy of soils affected by geological formations, geomorphology and climate

introduction: soil genesis and development in arid and semi-arid areas are strongly affected by geological formations and geomorphic surfaces. various morphological, physical, and geochemical soil properties at different geomorphic positions are usually attributed to different soil forming factors including parent material and climate. due to variations in climate, geological formations (quater...

Growth and chemical composition of three pistachio cultivars as affected by soil salinity and boron fertilization

Zinc Sorption by Acid, Calcareous and Gypsiferous Soils as Related to Soil Mineralogy

Zinc (Zn) availability and mobility in soils is controlled by its interaction with the soil matrix and amendments. Contradicting evidence has been reported for factors influencing Zn behavior in soils. The aim of this study was to investigate the Zn sorption in selected acid, calcareous and gypsiferous soils with different background electrolytes (Na+, K+ and H2PO4, NO3 and Cl backgrounds). Iso...
