The Australian Soil Classification provides a framework for organising knowledge about
Australian soils by allocating soils to classes via a key. Since its publication in 1996, this …

Acid sulfate soils are one of the most environmentally harmful soils existing in nature. This is
because they produce sulfuric acid and release metals, which may cause several ecological …

Established international soil classification systems have not properly accommodated acid
sulfate soils (ASS) and soil materials in Finland and Sweden because:(1) in these soils …

Acid sulfate soils (ASS) are wide-spread in coastal and inland wetlands. When sulfidic ASS
are exposed to oxygen, sulfuric acid is generated which can threaten wetlands and …

Classifying soils for a particular purpose involves the ordering of soils into groups with
similar properties and for potential end uses. The classification of soil is a terrific conceptual …

Soil moisture content and soil pH values, especially in the surface layers of the soil play a
significant role in agriculture production in hydrological processes, meteorology observation …

Acid sulfate soils (ASS) cause big problems worldwide due to their potential to form sulfuric
acid during oxidation of sulfidic materials, resulting in very acid soil (pH 4.0). Impacts include …

In Finland, acid sulfate (AS) soils are regarded as a serious environmental threat towards
the Baltic Sea and watersheds situated in land areas that have emerged from the sea since …

Wetland soils, especially those under a semi-arid climate, are among the least studied soils
in the tropics. The hypersaline tidal flats on the north-eastern Brazilian coast, locally named …

Acid sulfate soils naturally occur in many coastal regions. However, the oxidation of acid
sulfate soils can decrease soil pH to< 4.0, affecting vegetation and aquatic organisms. Acid …
