Pedological and geophysical field methods in combination with laboratory analyses were used in close proximity to the archaeological excavation site at Mintraching (near Regensburg, Bavaria). Studies about the terrace stratigraphy of the river
Danube and associated soil profiles provided data to determine the altitude of the ancient surface. Furthermore, the accumulation history of black sediments distributed nearby is described. Erosion and deposition of the black material give an indication
Palaeoenvironmental interpretation of geomorphological and pedological studies in the rain forest core-areas of Eastern Zaire (Central Africa)
Geomorphological studies on the Late Quaternary landscape evolution in areas of eastern Zaire indicated by pedological, sedimentological, and geochemical evidence that the recent rain forest of the region within the glacial core-areas was strongly
Use of soil profile truncation to estimate influence of accelerated erosion on soil cover transformation in young morainic landscapes, North-Eastern Poland
This paper elucidates the influence of accelerated soil erosion on soil cover in young morainic landscapes of North-Eastern Poland (Brodnica Lake District). Detailed pedological investigation were carried out within two study sites (forest
Climatic and non-climatic controls of aridity : the case of the northern Negev of Israel in Arid and semi-arid environments. Geomorphological and pedological aspects.
Influence of eolian sedimentation on soil formation in Egypt and Canary Island deserts in Arid and semi-arid environments. Geomorphological and pedological aspects.
The aim of this study is to produce a comparative basic pedological concept of the soils of the region in a catenary sequence. The catena studied is typical for the Mediterranean coastal areas covering surfaces, geomorphic units, formed
by neotectonic activity and the following processes related to pedology.
. The research is based on detailed pedological analysis of the Rokytka Brook catchment, on analysis of a peat bog ground water table time series and on data obtained by monitoring the water stage, discharge respectively, in the profile of the draining stream
Standortkundliche Typisierung des Graslandes in der DDR auf der Grundlage der Mittelmassstäbigen Landwirtschaftlichen Standortkartierung. (Pedological description of GDR grassland types on the basis of medium-scale agricultural mapping)
pedological grassland types have been classified in subgroups and described according to parameters for land unit regional types and the area covered. Decisive aspects are almost equal and stable site characteristics, such as soil conditions, essential water
The purposes of this study are to : 1) examine the macromorphology and micromorphology of surface accumulations of salts in the Salt Basin; 2) describe the pedological, chemical, and biological features associated with surface accumulations of salt
; 3) interpret the origin of salts crusts, salt flats, and saline wetlands using modern scientific data and historical accounts; and 4) compare pedological features of the Salt Basin with other soils in the surrounding area and with similar surface
The objectives of this paper are : 1) to summarize data for major soils, in particular the well-drained or zonal soils| 2) to examine soil-forming processes along a bioclimatic gradient| 3) to refine Tedrow's (1977) pedologic zones| and 4
) to compare pedologic zones of the Southern Circumpolar Region with those in the Northern Circumpolar Region.
