Global extent, development and economic impact of acid soils

H. R. von Uexküll, +1 more
- 01 Apr 1995 - 
TL;DR: Acid soils occupy approximately 30% or 3950 m ha of the world's ice free land area and occur mainly in two global belts where they have developed under udic or ustic moisture regimes as mentioned in this paper.

Application of Geostatistics to Spatial Studies of Soil Properties

TL;DR: Geostatistical analysis of spatial variability is applied to estimation of ore reserves in the mining industry, water resources research, soil science, and archaeology as mentioned in this paper, and identifies some future applications of geostatistics to spatial studies in soil and agronomic research.

The podzolization process. A review

TL;DR: In this article, the major mechanisms proposed to explain podzolization are reviewed, such as the production of organic acids that form soluble complexes with aluminium/iron thereby enhancing weathering, followed by illuviation by precipitation/adsorption processes occurring at greater depth.

A Study in Rock-Weathering

TL;DR: In this article, the progress of the decomposition of residual clay is interpreted from a series of six samples of residual clays, and fourteen new chemical analyses of material from Medford, Massachusetts, diabase are presented as a check on the older data.
