“…A characteristic feature of carbonate-rich soils was high base saturation and especially large shares of Ca 2+ cations (Zasoñski 1992(Zasoñski , 1993Caravaca et al 1999, Jonczak 2010, Tomašiae et al 2013. The large content of Ca 2+ cations was related with abundance of CaCO 3 in parent material.…”

Carbonate-rich soils are characterized by great diversity in content of carbonate and non-carbonate mineral substances in soil substrate which largely influences soil properties. The study presents the analysis results of four soil profiles located at the area of Pieniny National Park. The aim of this study was to characterize and classify the soils developed from the mixture of carbonate and carbonate-rich rock material, formerly classified as pararendzinas. It was achieved by determination of morphological, physical, and chemical properties, as well as mineralogical composition of selected carbonate-rich soils occurring in the Polish part of the Pieniny Mts. Soils were classified as typical chernozemic rendzina (P1), typical eutrophic brown soils (P2, P4), as well as typical pararendzina (P3) according to Polish Soil Classification (2011).The parent material of studied soils P1, P2 and P4 were slope covers, with a dominant share of sandstone and minor share of limestone, whereas soil P3 was formed from variegated shale cut with multiple calcite veins. Soils were characterized by stable aggregate structure: crumby, angular blocky and subangular blocky. They were medium or strong skeletal, mostly with loam texture with great share of silt fraction. CaCO 3 content in genetic horizons ranged from 0.0 to 703.0 g⋅kg -1 . The reaction of studied soils was from weakly acidic to alkaline. Analysed soils were characterized by very high base saturation. Among determined exchangeable cations, Ca 2+ ions had the biggest share in all analysed profile. High base saturation, as well as high content of calcium carbonate was accompanied by content of organic matter and percentage content of clay fraction. Taking into consideration determined chemical and physical properties, it can be found that investigated soils were influenced by not only the in-situ weathering material but also by rock material which have been transported and deposited as a result of slope processes. Furthermore, the lack or lower content of CaCO 3 in surface and middle part of analysed soil profiles was most likely a result of the impoverishment of rock material during the transport on the slope.

“…Soil having high CEC can absorb and serve the nutrients in the colloid surface so the nutrients are hard to lose by water (Soewandita, 2008). The negative charge on the colloid surface is the subtraction of isomorfic substitution on a phyllosilicate structure or functional organic dissociation (Tomašić et al, 2013). Nitrogen that is used by plant comes from fixation N and mineralization, subtraction with organic nitrogen (Sheoran et al, 2010).…”

:The assessment of soil quality index is one of the parameters to evaluate the goal of land reclamation. The research has been done in the various age of soil of PT Adaro Indonesia and natural forest. The research used descriptive explorative method and open field survey. Purposive sampling was used to take the sample in research location that represented the condition of every location. Principal component analysis used to know the main indicator. The main indicator was based on Eigen value >1 and chosen by indicator correlation having the highest weight index. The main indicator chosen was called minimum data set. The result of the research showed that minimum data set consisted of pH, base saturation, bulk density, electrical conductivity, cation exchange capacity, available P, total N, and soil organic carbon. The main indicators contributing to soil quality index value were total N and cation exchange capacity. Variable linear analysis showed that the longer age of land reclamation was followed by the development of soil quality index. Soil quality index in 18 years old soil reclamation (0.651) was higher than that in natural forest (0.575). Soil quality index of > 0.5 is defined as sustainable reclamation.

“…The lowest and highestCEC values (6.58 and 62.56 cmol (+) /kg soil),respectively were recorded for the surface layer of soil profiles 9 and 13, respectively. High contents of both organic matter and clay result in high values of CEC.This soil components have a large number of negative sites on their surfaces which retain cations (Tomašić et al, 2013). Negative sites on soil colloids are also produced due to high pH dependent charges resulting in high CEC values (Bohn et al, 2001).…”

In Garb El-Mawhob area, northwest of El-Dakhla Oasis, New Valley governorate, Egypt, nine transects (≈ 5km away between two consecutive ones) containing 17 soil sites were designated to evaluate the available potassium (K)and its relation with some soil properties. Surface (0-30) and subsurface (30-60) soil samples were collected from each profile, air-dried, ground, sieved and then, kept for some physical and chemical analyses.The obtained results indicated that about 56, 65 and 41% of the total soil samples contained sand, silt and clay respectively of more than 60, 10 and 30%, respectively. The saturation percentage (SP) varied from 25 to 110% and increased whenever the clay or organic matter content increased. The organic matter content differed from 0.01 to 2.48 % and decreased with soil depth. The CaCO 3 content of these soils varied from 2.20 to 59.24%. The pH values ranged from 7.44 to 8.03.The electrical conductivity of the soil paste extract (EC e ) differed from 0.71 to 171.30 dS/ m with an average value of 20.33dS/ m. The soluble anions could be arranged in the descending order of Cl> SO 4 > HCO 3 . The soluble cations could be arranged in the descending order of Na >Ca> Mg > K . The sodium adsorption ratio of the soil paste extract (SAR e ) ranged from 0.31 to 85.20. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) values ranged from 6.58 to 62.56 cmol (+) / kg with a mean value of 29.44 cmol (+) / kg and it increased with soil depth.The available K ranged from 148.98 to 944.12 mg/ kg with an average value of 451.81 mg/ kg. About 47.06% of the studied soil samples contained a very high level of available K (> 450 mg/ kg),20.56% had a high K level (251-450 mg/ kg), 29.41% showed a moderate K level (151-250 mg/kg) and only 2.94% exhibited a low K level (86-150 mg/ kg). The available K was found to be positively correlated to silt content, clay content, SP, EC e , SAR e and CEC as well as soluble Na, Mg, HCO 3 and SO 4 . However, it was negatively correlated to both sand and CaCO 3 contents.
