The formation of fossil oil within clay minerals i.e. mineral-catalyzed decarboxylation, is a mechanism awaiting a thorough chemical explanation. To contribute to such an explanation, the study presented here investigates this mechanism at the level of first principles, electronic structure computations, employing density functional theory (DFT plus Hubbard U), planewaves, pseudopotentials and ...
Extracellular enzymes degrade complex organic compounds and contribute to carbon turnover in soils. We used physical fractionation procedures to investigate whether soil carbon is spatially isolated from degradative enzymes across a prairie restoration chronosequence in Illinois, USA. We found that carbon-degrading enzymes were abundant in all soil fractions, including macroaggregates, microagg...
Transport behavior of '37Cs in the environment is regulated by surface sorption reactions on clay mineral surfaces. To provide greater understanding of Cs transport processes, XAFS investigations of the local environments of 133Cs sorbed to clay minerals were conducted on Cs-Ca exchanged clay suspensions at the Cs LIII-edge. With decreased surface loadings of Cs, the Cs local environment exhibi...
We experimentally investigate the rotation of plate shaped aggregates of clay mineral particles immersed in silicone oil. The rotation is induced by an external electric field. The rotation time is measured as a function of the following parameters: electric field strength, the plate geometry (length and width) and the dielectric properties of the plates. We find that the plates always align wi...
X-ray analyses of the clay minerals from thousands of sediments indicate that any of the major clay minerals can occur in abundance in any of the major depositional environments and there is no consistent coincidence between specific clay minerals and specific depositional environments. It is concluded that the great majority of clay minerals in sedimentary rocks are detrital in origin, strongl...
Particles with nanometer dimensions (nanoparticles) are all around us. The finest particles of sand are blown by the wind over thousands of kilometers. The finest particles of soils are either eroded by the wind in extremely dry conditions or by water under wet conditions and deposited hundreds of kilometers or more from the origin. The air contains nanoparticles of carbon, ice, and oxides and ...
-Three methods were developed that allow for the imaging of any clay mineral in aqueous solutions with atomic force microscopy (AFM). The methods involve fixing the particles onto special substrates that do not complicate the imaging process, but hold the particles sufficiently so that they do not move laterally or float away during imaging. Two techniques depend on electrostatic attraction und...
اثرات پستی و بلندی و آبیاری بر تکامل خاکها و تنوع کانیهای رسی در برخی از خاکهای گچی استان خوزستان
This study was done to evaluate the effect of topography, water table, and irrigation on gypsc soil development and clay mineral diversity in Ram-Hormuz Plain, Khuzestan Province. To localize, 10 profiles in this region that covered all purpose irrigation and topography situation were described. The results showed that the soils could be classified in Entisols, Inceptisols and Aridisols orders....
Potassium (K) fixation in soil is an important process which affects the availability of K to plants. There is limited information on K fixation capacity (PFC) of soils in Chahar Mahal & Bakhtiary province. This study was carried out with the aim of determining PFC and its relation with soil characteristics in 10 samples of surface soils in Chahar Mahal & Bakhtiary province. PFC was determined ...
