sodic

Also, columnar structure can be an indicator of sodic condition.

Such sodic soil tends to form columnar structures near the surface.

The second group is divided into two other subgroups, both using sodic ash but exploiting different plants.

Depression areas contain mainly poorly drained sodic and sometimes saline soils.

Sodic soils are dispersible and are thus vulnerable to erosion.

Sometimes these soils are also referred to as (alkaline) sodic soils.

What the plants do when grown on sodic soils is to release organic acids into the earth through their roots.

Influence of magnesium on aggregate stability in sodic red-brown earths.

If sodic feldspar is the dominant phase, the result is an antiperthite.

The clinopyroxene is sodic whose composition varies from hedenbergite to aegirine-augite.

It is only very rarely found and restricted to extremely sodic conditions of ultra-alkaline pegmatites.

It thrives in dry, saline or sodic soils.

As the Na (sodium) predominates, soils can become sodic.

Therefore, saline (sodic) soils mostly do not need gypsum applications for their reclamation.

The plagioclase is typically intermediate to sodic in composition, andesine to oligoclase.

Phenocrysts are sodic sanidine with minor albite and bipyrimidal quartz.

Restite feldspars will typically be a sodic plagioclase.

Sodic soil or soil sodicity may refer to:

Chamkaur Sahib and Kharar blocks have sodic soils.

Eclogite, a rock similar to basalt in composition, is composed primarily of sodic clinopyroxene and garnet.

Sodic soils are characterized by a disproportionately high concentration of sodium (Na) in their cation exchange complex.

This is light grey and contains sodic plagioclase, quartz, biotite, and muscovite.

Volcanic eruptions accompanying these collapses produced trachyte and a white, sodic rhyolite called comendite.

After growing sordan on sodic lands for about two years, farmers can often re-use the soil for conventional crops.

Soft water application in irrigation (surface or ground water) converts the fertile soils into alkaline sodic soils.
