gley

The site covers 20 hectares most of which is made up of peaty gley soil.

The B horizon lacks the grey colours and mottles characteristic of gley soils.

Because of his discovery, parathyroid glands have sometimes been referred to as "Gley's glands".

In flat areas and valleys the groundwater had more influence on soil formation; in such places gley soils may be found too.

There are also - though very few - hydromorphic soils belonging to the group of gley - and humic planosoles.

Eugène Gley, physiologist and endocrinologist (died 1930).

Gley may refer to:

In the southern valleys there are hydromorphic gley and more fertile alluvial soils (DPN,1998).

Thanks to Dokuchaev's works a number of Russian soil terms are in the international soil science vocabulary (chernozem, podsol, gley, solonets).

Where Anaerobic organisms reduce ferric oxide to ferrous oxide, the reduced mineral compounds produce the gley soil typical color.

Gustaf Retzius and Eugene Gley compounded his research, the latter credited with the discovery of the function of the parathyroid glands.

Soils are alluvium to the North and Southeast, whilst to the East and West poorly drained non-calcareous gley soils predominate.

It came about a year ago, when Gaelan rode out of Dun Mhor to tend to his land, after the damages of a flooding of the Gley.

However, some ground-water gley soils have permeable lower horizons, including some sands, for example in hollows within sand dune systems, known as slacks, and in some alluvial situations.

In the Rochester Section, the Sangamon Soil is developed in Sangamonian colluvial sediments, called "accretion gley", that accumulated contemporaneously with the development of the Sangamon Soil.

Groundwater gley soils develop where drainage is poor because the water table (phreatic surface) is high, whilst Surface-water gleying occurs when precipitation inputs at the surface do not drain freely through the ground.

In geological view the soils are a mixture of mixture of peat, peaty gley and gley soils over horizontal layers of carboniferous shale, sandstone, and mudstone.

Under reducing conditions as those found in gley soils, or in deep environments depleted in oxygen, and often with the assistance of microbial activity, ferrihydrite can be transformed in green rust, a layered double hydroxide (LDH), also known as the mineral fougerite.

The aluminum and ferric iron compounds in the subsoil also tend to bind the soil particles together, giving a "pellety" fine structure to the soil, and improving permeability, so that despite being in relatively high rainfall areas, the soils do not have the grey colours or mottles of gley soils.

This collective work is called Recherches expérimentales sur les conditions de l'activité cérébrale et sur la physiologie des nerfs and describes some of the works of Albert Küss, Albert René, Maxime Drouot, Charles Mayard and Eugène Gley.
