Processes of Stratification Breakdown and Restratification in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas by Xu, Yilang

“…Even though ice shelf basal meltwater can ascend to the polynya surface, much of it is mixed over the upper 100–200 m and does not have a significant contribution to the near-surface restratification. The surface runoff from the ice shelf surface melt could potentially contribute significantly to the near-surface restratification, but its magnitude is less constrained with high uncertainty. …”

Positive permanent charge in oxisols by Tessens, E., Zauyah, Siti

“…The existences of a positive permanent charge can be inferred from charge characteristics of highly weathered tropical soils; it was found to be related to isomorphous substitution of Ti(IV) for Fe(III) in iron oxides. Comparable near‐constant values were found from anion adsorption at pH 7.0 to 9.0. …”
