Our aims are the following: (1) to relate GPR observations to depth-varying regolith physical and weathering-related chemical properties in adjacent pedons and (2) to evaluate the lateral extent to which these properties can be extrapolated along a hillslope using GPR observations. Physical observations considered include regolith bulk density and grain size distribution, whereas chemical observations are based on major and trace element analysis. Results indicate that visually determined pedolith thickness and the transition from the B to C horizons generally correlate with maximums in the 500 and 1000 MHz GPR envelope profiles. To a lesser degree, these maximums in the GPR envelope profiles agree with maximums in weathering-related indices such as the chemical index of alteration (CIA) and the chemical index of mass transfer (τ) for Na. Finally, we find that upscaling from the pedon to hillslope scale is possible with geophysical methods for certain pedon properties. Taken together, these findings suggest that the GPR profiles down hillslopes can be used to infer lateral thickness variations in pedolith horizons in different ecologic and climate settings, and to some degree the physical and chemical variations with depth. 000888962 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$a255 - Terrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction (POF3-255)$$cPOF3-255$$fPOF III$$x0 000888962 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000888962 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)168555$$aDal Bo, Igor$$b1$$eCorresponding author 000888962 7001_ $$00000-0001-9436-0303$$aEhlers, Todd A.$$b2 000888962 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)129483$$aKlotzsche, Anja$$b3 000888962 7001_ $$00000-0002-2328-294X$$aDrews, Reinhard$$b4 000888962 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aFuentes Espoz, Juan Pablo$$b5 000888962 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)129561$$avan der Kruk, Jan$$b6 000888962 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2834892-8$$a10.5194/soil-6-629-2020$$gVol. 6, no. 2, p. 629 - 647$$n2$$p629 - 647$$tSoil$$v6$$x2199-398X$$y2020 000888962 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/888962/files/soil-6-629-2020.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000888962 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:888962$$pdnbdelivery$$pVDB$$pVDB:Earth_Environment$$pdriver$$popen_access$$popenaire 000888962 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)129483$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b3$$kFZJ 000888962 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)129561$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b6$$kFZJ 000888962 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-250$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-200$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bErde und Umwelt$$lTerrestrische Umwelt$$vTerrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction$$x0 000888962 9141_ $$y2020 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1060$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Agriculture, Biology and Environmental Sciences$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0113$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0700$$2StatID$$aFees$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0030$$2StatID$$aPeer Review$$bDOAJ : Peer review$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0561$$2StatID$$aArticle Processing Charges$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0160$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bEssential Science Indicators$$d2020-09-09 000888962 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bClarivate Analytics Master Journal List$$d2020-09-09 000888962 920__ $$lyes 000888962 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118$$kIBG-3$$lAgrosphäre$$x0 000888962 980__ $$ajournal 000888962 980__ $$aVDB 000888962 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000888962 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118 000888962 9801_ $$aFullTexts
