Abstract
Natural nanoparticles and nanocolloids are ubiquitous in soil environments playing important roles in many environmental processes, including soil genesis, nutrient cycling, dispersion/flocculation, sorption, precipitation, dissolution, contaminant transport, biogeochemical transformations, bioavailability, and various remediation practices (Christian et al., 2008).
