“…For example, Toková et al (2023) examined the effect of biochar on selected physical and hydrophysical soil properties of an arable silty loam Haplic Luvisol in Slovakia. Klíč et al (2022) assessed the impact of land use (arable and forest) on the aggregate size distribution in a Haplic Luvisol developed on loess in Czechia during dry and wet sieving. Huang et al (2022) used disturbed samples of the A horizon from an arable Stagnic Luvisol derived from loess (Germany) to investigate the influence of soil structure on deformation, pore water pressure and air permeability during compaction and subsequent shearing.…”

Clay-illuvial soils with argic horizon and developed from loess or other silty deposits constitute high-quality arable land owing to favourable physical and chemical properties. There are thus numerous reports on such soils, considering their structure, compaction, erosion, water and air properties. However, there is still a lack of quantitative studies on structure and physical properties on analogous soils under forests. The aim of this research was therefore a comprehensive description of the physical state, including structure, water and air properties, of a forest Retisol developed from loess. Morphographic, morphological and morphometric parameters of structure, selected physicochemical and water and air properties and also relationships among the obtained parameters were analysed for genetic horizons O, Ah, AE, E, Bt/E, Bt, BtC and C. The fi eld survey and soil structure images indicated that the studied forest soil had an undisturbed sequence of genetic horizons. The soil structure was shaped by soil fl ora and fauna causing bioturbation. Qualitative and quantitative structure analysis revealed that the O horizon had a loose arrangement, the Ah horizon had an aggregate crumb structure, the AE horizon had zones of an aggregate crumb structure and non-aggregate structure (fi ssured or with channels), while the remaining mineral horizons showed essentially a non-aggregate structure with varying proportions and sizes of planes and biogenic pores (i.e. cracked or fi ssured structure and structure with channels, respectively). The morphometric and physicochemical parameters facilitated a detailed analysis of the Retisol's physical state. The Retisol's structure type and degree of aggregate development directly infl uenced its hydraulic conductivity and water retention capacity. Therefore, under simulated precipitation, the soil water content and effective saturation varied mainly in the topsoil (O-E horizons) and virtually no changes were observed in the subsoil (Bt-C horizons). The research resulted in a comprehensive analysis of the physicochemical and morphometric parameters, their relationships, and structure images that were previously unavailable in other studies, covering the physical state of the entire pedon of a forest Retisol. The results obtained may serve, for example, as a reference (control) for analogous soils located in non-forest ecosystems and become an element in space-for-time substitution scenarios aimed at assessing the intensity of anthropogenic transformation.

Microplastics, classified as emerging contaminants, are recognized for their pollution of various environments, including groundwater. This study focuses on Jakarta, a major city in Asia where some communities still rely on groundwater as their source of clean water. We analyzed 121 groundwater samples from West Jakarta and South Jakarta to assess microplastic abundance and characteristics including color, shape, size, and material. The study also explored the correlation between microplastic abundance and influencing factors such as distance to septic tanks, distance to temporary waste disposal sites, Escherichia coli concentrations, and total coliform concentrations. The results indicate microplastic concentrations ranging from 28 to 236 particles/L with averages of 104 particles/L in West Jakarta and 78 particles/L in South Jakarta. Fragments were the most common shapes (85.68%), followed by fibers (12.86%), films (0.8%), and microbeads (0.66%). Black (85.93%) was the dominant color of microplastics, followed by red (8.2%), transparent (3.13%), blue (1.76%), yellow (0.75%), and green (0.23%). Microplastic size ranged from 20 μm to 3.76 mm, with the dominant polymer materials being Tencel, cellophane, and polyethylene (PE). Further analysis showed a significant correlation between microplastic abundance and distance to temporary waste disposal sites, with closer proximity resulting in higher concentrations. Trends in correlations between microplastic abundance and distance to septic tanks, E. coli concentration, and total coliform concentration were observable but not significant.
