This study was undertaken characterize classify a singular resource for vineyard traditional viticultural region: Castilla-La Mancha, central Spain. under described sampled using standard survey procedures outlined by FAO, served pedologic window Gleyic Fluvisol (Calcar...

ABSTRACT In gypsiferous soils, potassium (K) undergoes leaching, precipitation and other reactions that reduce its availability. This study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical behavior of K in soils Salahaddin province (Iraq), twelve locations chosen according variation their soil physical chemical properties. The adsorption phenomenon was described by using thermodynamic parameters quantity-...

Gypsum karst problems in the Permian and Triassic sequences of England have caused difficult conditions for bridge and road construction. In Northern England, the Ripon Bypass crosses Permian strata affected by active gypsum karst and severe subsidence problems. Here, the initial borehole site investigation for the road was supplemented by resistivity tomography studies. The roadway was reinfor...

soils of the arid–semiarid karaj basin in north-central iran have formed on alluvium-colluvium derived from mixed calcareous-gypsiferous marls of miocene and basic igneous rocks of holocene age. in order to characterize and classify the soils and to determine the soil-landscape relationship in the area, sixteen pedons located on different physiographic positions have been described, sampled and...
