Vertisols are soils characterized by clayey texture and dominance of smectite minerals, which allow for a high coefficient of expansion and contraction of the soil mass in wetting and drying conditions. Soil morphological, physical and chemical characteristics of Vertisols are closely related to the types and amounts of smectite and other clay minerals, but their identification and charac…
The Nhecolândia sub-region, located in the central southern portion of the Pantanal wetland, is distinguished by the existence of about 7000 fresh water lakes (baías) and 1500 alkaline-saline lakes (salinas), respectively associated with temporary channels (vazantes) and sand hills (cordilheiras). The high geochemical variability of waters associated with baías/vazantes and salinas/cordil…
Human actions interfere in the processes of soil formation in urban environments mainly by the introduction of anthropic materials, changing their morphological, physical, chemical and/or mineralogical characteristics. The soil structure is one of the morphological characteristics most affected by anthropic activities, and its destruction or degradation can significantly affect the hydrol…
Clay minerals of a freshwater lake supposedly originated by degradation of a saline lake will be studied aiming to establish possible genetic relationship with the clay minerals typically formed in the saline-sodic soils surrounding the saline lakes. The samples will be identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and chemically characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-…
The knowledge about the consequences of human modification in soils is still incipient in science, especially considering the major expectations in terms of ecosystem services provided by urban soils to face the main environmental issues. Among the main changes is the introduction of artefacts, i.e. anthropic material, including microplastic. Thus, the objective of the project is to carry…
