Depending on the mechanical/physical processes of weathering (extension and shrinkage through temperature changes, or joint fracture by frozen water), including chemical processes in the solution of rock, different types and amounts of loose material are produced. The downward dislocation of loose ...

Responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi to mineral substrates Minerals in the soil may, however, also serve as nutrient resources for ectomycorrhizal fungi. Through combined chemical and physical processes fungi can affect nutrient availability by weathering minerals. This thesis describes a field ... A Rosli...
Although interstratified clay minerals have been intensively studied, their actual physical character remains uncertain and, from a thermodynamic point of view, it is still not clear whether they should he treated as single phases or as polyphase aggregates. In this paper the major types of inter...

The aim of this paper is to study the effects of weathering processes of dolomite outcropping in the Yuntai Mountain (Shibing, Guizhou, China). This work shows the dolomite's physical and mechanical characteristics, microscopic characteristics of rock and pore structure based on chemical and minero...
The role of thaw depth and the ability of saturated soils to maintain oxidizing conditions in organic surface layers highlight the importance of soil physical properties and hydrology in predicting biogeochemical processes and greenhouse gas emissions....
