    Soil micromorphology for construction science: the mortar archaeometry

    Get PDF
    Micromorphology revealed in depth evaluation of materials particularly soil micromorphology yielded numerous data on processes such as formation, neoformation and transformation of minerals and microstructure in soils, pottery and construction materials. Mortars, one of the first human made materials for construction of Byzantine and the Ottoman worlds were compared in terms of micromorphology and mineralogy

    Assessment of the changes in natural resource quality requires long term monitoring. This study outlines the changes achieved in soils and vegetation quality in a sand dune area of Central Turkey maintained since 1960s

    Polygenetic evolution and bioturbation: micromorphological study of a Terra Rossa soil in a traditional olive crop (Sardinia, Italy)

    The origin of Mediterranean red soils has been the subject of numerous studies. Complex genetic processes, and massive inputs of allochtonous materials such as wind-blown Saharan dust and volcanic ashes, have been advocated to interpret their genesis. The present study was carried out in a traditional olive grove nearby Sassari (Sardinia, Italy), where the land use remained unchanged for the last 150 years, on Terra Rossa developed on Miocene marine limestone
