Mineralogical composition and physical characteristics of marly soils from Heraklion Crete

Mineralogical Characterization of Lunar Highland Soils

Introduction: It has been theorized that the effects of space weathering during soil formation on the Moon are similar to those for many other airless bodies (e.g., Vesta, Eros) [1,2]. Therefore, the study of these effects on lunar soils may form the basis for our understanding of other heavenly bodies. This is a particularly valid axiom for reflectance spectroscopy of these soils. It has been ...

Physical, geochemical and mineralogical indicators of aging in Quaternary soils of Central Italy

In this paper, a set of physical, geochemical and mineralogical indicators are proposed for the correlation of soil age. The parameters studied allowed the highlighting of trends in soil aging as well as the relating of these trends to specific soil forming processes. Soil aging was marked by a progressive increase in clay content and a decrease in silt/clay ratio, a slight reduction in the CEC...

determination of some physical and mechanical properties red bean

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...

Centipede assemblages along an urbanization gradient in the city of Heraklion, Crete (Greece)

Global urbanization is a major force that causes alteration and loss of natural habitats. Urban ecosystems are strongly affected by humans and there is a gradient of decreasing human influence from city centers to natural habitats. To study ecological changes along this continuum, researchers introduced the urban-rural gradient approach. The responses of centipedes to an urbanization gradient (...
