A Comprehensive Review on Gypsisols: Characteristics, Genesis, and Environmental Implications
Abstract
Gypsisols, a distinct soil order recognized by the presence of gypsum as a primary soil-forming mineral, play a crucial role in shaping terrestrial ecosystems and influencing environmental processes. This research review provides a comprehensive examination of Gypsisols, encompassing their key characteristics, genesis, and the broader environmental implications associated with their presence. The paper delves into the unique physicochemical properties of Gypsisols, exploring the impact of gypsum on soil structure, fertility, and water retention. The genesis of Gypsisols is explored, considering factors such as climate, parent material, and biological processes that contribute to the formation of these specialized soils. Additionally, the review investigates the distribution of Gypsisols globally, highlighting regions where they are prevalent and the ecological significance of their presence.
