Ethnopedological knowledge and scientific assessment of earthenware pottery-making soils of southern Botswana for natural resource management

Yvette Matshameko et al.

Summary: This study explores the criteria used by indigenous potters in classifying pottery-making soils in southern Botswana and presents the pedological parameters of the soils. The major factors used for classification are color, texture, and plasticity. The findings show that the scientific analysis data align with the indigenous soil classification system, and the study emphasizes the importance of these findings in the sustainable soil management.

Geochemistry of soils of a deep pedon in the Okavango Delta, NW Botswana: Implications for pedogenesis in semi-arid regions

Peter N. Eze et al.

Summary: By analyzing the pedogenic parameters and geochemical compositions of the Okavango Delta soils, this study sheds light on the complex pedogenic processes in the area, including alkaline soil environment, gleying phenomenon, and the presence of minerals such as calcite, quartz, and opal-CT. It demonstrates the importance of soil morphological, geochemical, and mineralogical properties in evaluating pedogenic processes and classification.

Modelling the behaviour of sensitive clays experiencing large deformations using non-local regularisation techniques

Vikram Singh et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a methodology to simulate the strain-softening-hardening response of sensitive clays during extensive remoulding, using a non-local strain-softening technique implemented into a Finite Element Analysis software. The non-local model significantly reduces solution mesh dependency and proves to be important for analyzing the strain-softening behavior of clays.
