Methods of soil analysis.

TL;DR: Biosorbents have been recently gaining importance, with an increasing number of publications on their environmental applications, especially for removal of organic pollutants from aqueous media as discussed by the authors, and they have been used in a variety of applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed decision tree models for spatial prediction of soil classes in a 720 km2 area located in an arid region of central Iran, where traditional soil survey methods are difficult to undertake using the conditioned Latin hypercube sampling method.

TL;DR: Real-time data is reported illustrating the rapid formation of nickel aluminium-layered double hydroxide precipitates at the mineral-water interface in a flow environment in as little as 31-40 min.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of acidification of 6 alkaline vertic soils in the presence or absence of an anion exchange membrane sink on the dissolution of various calcium phosphate minerals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a modeling approach aimed at seasonal resolution of global climatic and edaphic controls on patterns of terrestrial ecosystem production and soil microbial respiration using satellite imagery (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer and International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project solar radiation), along with historical climate (monthly temperature and precipitation) and soil attributes (texture, C and N contents) from global (1°) data sets as model inputs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Century ecosystem model was applied to a series of forest and grassland sites distributed globally to examine large-scale controls over soil carbon, including soil texture and foliar lignin content.

TL;DR: In this article, the Rothamsted model is used to calculate the amount of CO2 that would be released from the world stock of soil organic matter if temperatures increase as predicted, the annual return of plant debris to the soil being held constant.

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of soil structure involves the physical forces of shrinking and swelling created by changes in water status of soils, freezing and thawing, tillage, or by movement of the larger biota in soils.
