Abstract Digital Soil Mapping includes quantitative estimations of soil attributes in areas with
little or no soil information, being important in remote landscapes such as the Antarctic ice …

Soil texture is one of the most important soil properties as it drives several physical,
chemical, biological, hydrological, and mechanical properties, and processes. In Antarctica …

Extensive areas of penguins' nesting (Pygoscelis sp.), on ice-free areas, account for vast
deposits of organic matter-rich guano in maritime Antarctica. One such area, at Harmony …

Despite progress in the last decade on periglacial geomorphology and permafrost research
in Antarctica, many areas in Maritime Antarctica remain unsurveyed. This study aimed to …

Coastal areas of Antarctica are subjected to anthropic contamination from around the world
by trace metals biotransported and accumulated by seabird excrements. To explore this …

The chemical weathering intensity in Antarctica is underestimated. As the chemical
weathering intensity increases, hydrological, geochemical and geophysical changes occur …

Abstract The Espinhaço Range is the scene of a long history of exposure to chemical
weathering and erosion processes since the Cretaceous. As a result, ferruginous duricrusts …

Maritime Antarctica is still pedologically unexplored by proximal geophysical sensors. In-
depth soil geophysical characterizations in depth can provide comprehensive information …

Abstract Vega Island in the Weddell Sea is characterized by a semiarid climate and peculiar
soil formation due to its transitional location between warmer and wetter Maritime Antarctica …

The majority of ornithogenic soils studied in Antarctica focus on the influence of penguins,
wherever little reports evaluated the influence of flying birds on soil genesis. This study …
