Ocorrência de corpos silicosos em horizontes superficiais de solos de diferentes ecossistemas

Abstract: (4)RESUMO O entendimento dos processos que causam as diferentes distribuições de corpos silicosos no solo é essencial para a interpretação dos possíveis fatores ambientais responsáveis pela estabilidade deles, deposição de sedimentos, formação de paleossolos e para análise de sítios arqueológicos. Assim, a presente pesquisa objetivou identificar a ocorrência de corpos silicosos encontrados em horizontes superficiais de solos oriundos de diferentes ecossistemas terrestres. Amostras de horizonte superficial de 1… Show more

“…However, the percentage of the silt fraction can increase as a function of the deposition of silica, which is present in plants in the form of phytoliths. Costa et al (2010), who studied phytoliths in many Brazilian ecosystems, pointed out that they mainly occur in the silt fraction of soils. Although it was not the objective of this study, the process of ferrolysis, which may occur in this environment, can corrode minerals from the fine sand fraction, transforming them into the silt fraction.…”

“…A sílica, por outro lado, é comparativamente considerada pouco solúvel (FEITOSA e MANOEL-FILHO, 2000; ALBARÈDE, 2011) e sua elevada concentração, poderia ser associada aos intensos processos de lixiviação, em que os elementos mais eletronegativos já foram retirados do sistema, elevando a concentração relativa (e não absoluta) da sílica nas águas. Estudos mais recentes, porém, apontam para a possibilidade de um elevado percentual de sílica solú-vel de origem biogênica na mistura do solo, derivada da dissolução de fi tólitos (COSTA et al, 2010a). A solubilidade da sílica amorfa em água é dependente da ação microbiana, o que pode auxiliar na explicação dos teores relativamente elevados encontrados em águas de ambientes tropicais (COSTA et al, 2010b).…”

“…For the samples collected at depths, the isotope ratio was quantified by an isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) (Delta V Advantage) coupled to an IRMS elemental analyzer (Flash EA 2000), both from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Bremen, Germany), at the Carbon and Nitrogen Biotransformation Research Laboratory (LABCEN) of the Federal University of Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. In these samples, phytoliths were also extracted from the soil according to procedures described in Costa et al (2010), with modifications, which consisted of low speed spin cycles (1,000 rpm for 5 min) to avoid destruction of more sensitive morphotypes. Morphotypes were identified under an optical microscope using 40 × magnification lenses.…”
