Determination of chemical weathering and profile development indexes of soils formed on volcanic rocks in the Biga Peninsula, NW Türkiye
Chemical weathering and profile development indexes of soils formed on Ayvacik volcanites (pyroclastic, basalt, andesite, and ignimbrite) in the SW of Biga Peninsula were investigated in this study. Eight soil profiles (two representing each rock type) were excavated on soils formed on pyroclastic, basalt, andesite, and ignimbrite rocks. The profiles were described according to the Soil Survey Manual and classified according to the Soil Taxonomy and the World Reference Base (WRB). Within the study, morphological observations, physico-chemical, oxide, and mineralogical analyses were conducted, thin-section interpretations were carried out, and chemical weathering and profile development indexes (PDI) were calculated. In addition, statistical analyses were performed on all data. Chemical index of alteration-CIA, Parker weathering index-WIP, chemical index of weathering-CIW, plagioclase index of alteration-PIA, silica-titania index-STI, bases/R2O3, product index-PWI, Vogt index-V and Ruxton ratio-R were calculated. Relationships between chemical weathering and profile development indexes were tested with multiple statistical evaluations. According to the results of multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) the effects between chemical weathering indexes and PDI were statistically significant with CIA, WIP, CIW, PWI, and V weathering indexes. In contrast, the impacts of PIA, STI, Bases/R2O3, and R weathering indexes were not significant. These relationships between chemical weathering and PDI were supported by thin section and mineralogical analysis. With the integration of PDI and chemical weathering indexes, WIP was found to be the most suitable weathering index for evaluating soils formed on pyroclastic and basalt rocks, while PWI was found to be suitable for andesite and ignimbrite rocks. These findings provide a robust framework for selecting appropriate weathering indexes tailored to specific volcanic rocks in pedogenetic studies.
期刊介绍:
Catena publishes papers describing original field and laboratory investigations and reviews on geoecology and landscape evolution with emphasis on interdisciplinary aspects of soil science, hydrology and geomorphology. It aims to disseminate new knowledge and foster better understanding of the physical environment, of evolutionary sequences that have resulted in past and current landscapes, and of the natural processes that are likely to determine the fate of our terrestrial environment.
Papers within any one of the above topics are welcome provided they are of sufficiently wide interest and relevance.
