Performance of calcium lignosulfonate as a stabiliser of highly expansive clay
(Elsevier Inc, 2020-03)
The efficiency of calcium lignosulfonate (CLS) as an expansive soil stabiliser was studied. CLS is a bio-based polymer, obtained as a sub-product of the paper industry. Its use as a soil stabilizer not only enhances the ...

Tree encroachment into savannas alters soil microbiological and chemical properties facilitating forest expansion
(2016-10-01)
Forests have been expanding over typical savanna sites for the past 3000 years in the Neotropics. Such invasion can produce a series of environmental modifications on typical savanna; however, it remains unclear how ...
Métodos para controlar el potencial expansivo en suelos arcillosos de la ciudad de Cuenca
