Paleosols are ancient soils that have been incorporated into the geological record. Soils
form in response to interactions among the lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and …

Vertisols were examined from the standpoint of extreme pedology. The aim of this paper is
to: 1) estimate the variability of features, factors and geography of Vertisols and to better …

Significant portions of the global soil organic carbon (SOC) pool must reside on sloping
terrains where the spatial distribution of SOC reflects the combined effects of geomorphic …

Paleosols are an important component of the terrestrial stratigraphic record and are
increasingly utilized in stratigraphic analyses and paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate …

Vertic features result from shrink-swell processes, vertical mixing and lateral shearing, in
swelling clay materials under alternating wet and dry conditions. They are recognised in …

Abstract The northern Madrid Basin contains paleosols and lacustrine sequences composed
of ordered dolomite. Smectite-rich mudstones with analcime deposited in distal alluvial fans …

The stratigraphic record of distributive fluvial systems is commonly characterised by frequent
and complex interstratification of palaeosols among channel and overbank deposits …

Vertisols are complex soils with high clay content (> 30%), high shrink–swell potential, and
microrelief features known as gilgai We applied field and laboratory electrical‐resistivity …

Abstract The Maastrichtian dinosaur-bearing Chorrillo Formation in southern Patagonia (⁓
50° S, Austral-Magallanes Basin, Argentina) is a pedogenically modified fluvial succession …

Aeolian sand sheets, which are characterized by low relief surfaces that lack dunes, are
common in arid and semi‐arid climatic settings. The surface of an aeolian sand sheet can …
