Mixed Signals: interpreting mixing patterns of different soil bioturbation processes through luminescence and numerical modelling by W. M. van der Meij, S. Riedesel, S. Riedesel, T. Reimann

“…</p> <p>We focus on two main bioturbation processes: mounding (advective transport of soil material to the surface) and subsurface mixing (diffusive subsurface transport). Each process has a distinct effect on the luminescence metrics, which we summarized in a conceptual diagram to help with qualitative interpretation of luminescence-based depth profiles. …”
