Soil hydrostructural parameters under various soil management practices

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2023
Hydrostructural parameters are driven by the characterization of the soil aggregates structure using a set of thermodynamic equations. Soil aggregates structure is unique for each soil type and can be affected by its physical, chemical, and biological ...

Soil Water Thermodynamic to Unify Water Retention Curve by Pressure Plates and Tensiometer

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2014
The pressure plate method is a standard method for measuring the pF curves, also called soil water retention curves, in a large soil moisture range from saturation to a dry state corresponding to a tension pressure of near 1500 kPa. However, the pressure

Impact of dairy wastewater irrigation and manure application on soil structural and water-holding properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The livestock sector contributes about 40% of global agricultural output and uses over 30% of total feed-crop land. The sector's continuing growth has led to increased technology and larger-scale, commercialized agriculture, and it correlates to growth ...

Physics of the Soil Medium OrganizationPart 2: Pedostructure Characterization through Measurement and Modeling of the Soil Moisture Characteristic Curves

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2014
Accurate measurement of the two soil moisture characteristic curves, namely, water retention curve (WRC) and soil shrinkage curve (SSC) is fundamental for the physical modeling of hydrostructural processes in vadose zone.

Investigation of Soil Hydro-Structural Parameters Under Various Soil Management Practices and Feasibility of Defining a Soil Quality Indicator: A Case Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Hydrostructural parameters are derived from continuously measured thermodynamic relationships which characterize the soil aggregates. The soil aggregate structure is unique and dynamic for each soil type and can be affected by the soil’s physical ...

A Framework for Soil-Water Modeling Using the Pedostructure and Structural Representative Elementary Volume (SREV) Concepts

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2014
Current soil water models do not take into account the internal organization of the soil medium and consequently ignore the physical interaction between the water film at the surface of solids that form the soil structure and the structure itself.

A Double Scale Methodology to Investigate Flow in Karst Fractured Media via Numerical Analysis: The Cassino Plain Case Study (Central Apennine, Italy)

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
A methodology to evaluate the hydraulic conductivity of the karst media at a regional scale has been proposed, combining pumping tests and the hydrostructural approach, evaluating the hydraulic conductivity of fractured rocks at the block scale. Obtaining hydraulic conductivity values, calibrated at a regional scale, a numerical flow model of the ...

The vulnerability of complex karst hydrostructures: Problems and perspectives [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2004
In the last 15 years some large karst aquifers of Italy were studied to realize maps of intrinsic and integrated vulnerability to pollution on the basis of the point count system model SINTACS.
