Top processes

Aluminium toxicity and liming of acid soils

6 steps

Cation exchange, pH and soil solution chemistry

3 steps

Volcanic ash parent material, short-range-order minerals and Andosol carbon

3 steps

Start: Volcanic ash parent material, short-range-order minerals and Andosol carbon
End: Volcanic ash parent material, short-range-order minerals and Andosol carbon
Allophane and Al-humus complexes bind organic matter so strongly that Andosols hold large Soil organic matter stocks with slow turnover

Sequential soil pH buffer systems

2 steps

Pyrite oxidation and acid sulfate weathering

2 steps

Volcanic ash weathering to allophane and imogolite (andic soils)

2 steps

Show 3 more processes

Base cation cycling (calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium)

1 step

Falling base saturation lowers pH buffering, raises Al3+ and hurts root growth

Biochar and charcoal in soil

1 step

Ash carbonates raise pH and reduce Aluminum toxicity

Living soil system

1 step

Volcanic ash parent material, short-range-order minerals and Andosol carbon
