Weathering and erosion slowly chisel ... When the glacier begins to melt, it deposits its cargo of soil and rock, transporting the rocky debris toward the sea. Every year, rivers deposit millions ...
Table 1: Common salts found in saline soils. Soils are naturally composed of inorganic minerals, including primary minerals (e.g., quartz, micas, or feldspars) and their weathering products, including ...
Managing soil pH is a crucial but often overlooked aspect of soil health and crop productivity, says Marla Riekman, a land ...
All plants require 17 elements to complete their life cycle, and an additional four elements have been identified as essential for some plants (Havlin et al. 2005). With the exception of C, H, and ...
When European-American settlers first began ploughing in Iowa, they found the weather and local geology had combined this organic mulch with sand and silt to form a nutrient-rich type of soil ...
Soil creep is a very slow movement, occurring on very gentle slopes because of the way soil particles repeatedly expand and contract in wet and dry periods. When wet, soil particles increase in ...
A new study reveals that implementing enhanced weathering (EW), the practice of adding crushed basalt to soils, with U.S. agriculture could remove between 160 and 300 million metric tons of carbon ...
Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) is a greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technology based on amending agricultural soils with crushed calcium- and magnesium-rich silicate rocks - like basalt, which is usually ...
