Spatially extensive high-resolution soil moisture mapping is valuable in practical forestry and land management, but challenging. Here we present a novel technique involving use of LIDAR-derived terrain indices machine learning (ML) algorithms capable accurately modeling at 2 m spatial resolution across the entire Swedish forest landscape. We used field data from about 20,000 sites Sweden to tr...

I am delighted to announce completion of the second issue of the new journal of “Geopersia”, a product of the new era of replacing the Persian language journals with specific English-language ones. Our purpose is to provide a journal that offers a multi-disciplinary analysis of issues concerning Geology subjects (i.e. sedimentology, stratigraphy, paleontology, Petroleum Geology, Engineering Geo...

Peat and organic soils commonly occur as extremely soft, unconsolidated surficial deposits that are an integral part of the wetland systems. They may also occur as strata beneath other surficial deposits. These soils are problematic as they are very highly compressible and are of very low shear strength. In countries like Malaysia, peat and organic soils are found in abundance. Utilization of t...
