Comparison of regolith physical and chemical characteristics with geophysical data along a climate and ecological gradient, Chilean Coastal Cordillera (26 to 38° S)

Abstract: Abstract. We combine geophysical observations from ground-penetrating radar (GPR) with regolith physical and chemical properties from pedons excavated in four study areas spanning 1300 km of the climate and ecological gradient in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera. Our aims are the following: (1) to relate GPR observations to depth-varying regolith physical and weathering-related chemical properties in adjacent pedons and (2) to evaluate the lateral extent to which these properties can be extrapolated along a hill… Show more

“…As the study areas exhibit similar granitoid lithology, the erosional parameters (Table A1) are kept uniform for both the study areas. However, parameters based on climate conditions, namely soil production rate (Schaller et al, 2018), MAP, and vegetation cover (Schmid et al, 2018) The porosity (0.2) used in this study is lower than the usual range for soil (0.3-0.4), as sediment produced as a result of weathering in the study areas is a mixture of fine-and coarse-grained regolith (Schaller et al, 2020). Manning's numbers for bare soil and reference vegetation cover are the same as used by Schmid et al (2018).…”

“…Together, these study areas span ∼ 1300 km of the Coastal Cordillera. These study areas are chosen for their steep climate and ecological gradient from north (arid environment with small to no shrubs) to south (humid-temperate environment with evergreen mixed forests) (Schaller et al, 2020). The study areas are part of the German-Chilean priority research program EarthShape (https://www.earthshape.…”
