“…The mean differences in bulk densities between NFS and SFS are pronounced but not significant, supporting the results of recent studies which did not find significant differences in most present-day physical and chemical properties of regolith on NFS and SFS in the Coastal Cordillera of Northern Chile (Bernhard et al, 2018;Oeser et al, 2018). Measured soil bulk densities and/or soil depths derived from study sites in the semiarid natural reserve of Santa Gracia, located ~120 km NNE of our study area, are very similar to those derived in this study (Bernhard et al, 2018;Dal Bo et al, 2019;Oeser et al, 2018;555 Owen et al, 2011).…”

“…The tendency towards lower values for ρB,f (and ρB,d, ρd in C1 and C2) and higher values for z on SFS than on NFS might be linked to slope exposure with respect to insolation, causing contrasting microclimatic conditions and thus the observed 540 differences in vegetation cover and presumed differences in soil properties (e.g. Bockheim and Hartemink, 2017;Dal Bo et al, 2019;Gutiérrez-Jurado and Vivoni, 2013;Jenny, 1994;Pelletier and Swetnam, 2017). We found that the aspect-related contrasts in measured densities are especially pronounced close to the thalwegs.…”

“…The amplitude of recycling varies from nutrient to nutrient and site to site. In the arid Pan de Azùcar, nutrients are primarily recycled via photodegradation of shrubs (e.g., Gallo et al, 2006;Day et al, 2015). In the remaining sites Rec X occurs through all organic-bearing soil horizons and increases from Santa Gracia to Nahuelbuta and is highest for Ca (increasing from 1 to 6), K (increasing from 6 to 15), and P (increasing from 5 to 30; Table 5).…”

“…These four study areas were investigated to qualitatively and quantitatively describe the differences between the four settings. Our previous work in these areas has identified from field observations and GPR-based methods an increase in pedolith thickness from north to south and major and trace element compositional variations within pedons (e.g., Bernhard et al, 2018;Oeser et al, 2018;Dal Bo et al, 2019). However, in our previous GPR work (Dal Bo et al, 2019) we were not able to present a detailed comparison of physical, chemical, and regolith observations, which has yet to be reported for these areas.…”

“…Different geophysical techniques have provided a non-invasive or minimally invasive approach to view pedolith variations down to the saprolith and bedrock interface (e.g., Parsekian et al, 2015). Whereas high-frequency GPR has proven suitable for investigating pedolith layering and thickness (e.g., Doolittle et al, 2007;Gerber et al, 2010;Roering et al, 2010;Dal Bo et al, 2019), other methods such as seismics (e.g., Holbrook et al, 2014), electrical resistivity tomography (ERT, e.g., Braun et al, 2009), and low-frequency GPR (e.g., Aranha et al, 2002) are better suited to image saprolith and bedrock interfaces (e.g., Parsekian et al, 2015). GPR methods were also previously used to indirectly measure water flow (e.g., Zhang et al, 2014;Guo et al, 2020) as well as root density (e.g., Hruska et al, 1999;Guo et al, 2013).…”
