Field evaluation of a bent leg tillage implement in dry soil conditions

open access: yesResearch in Agricultural Engineering, 2023
Tillage operations in dry soil conditions have increasingly been used in Iran in recent years. However, due to the recent droughts, the choice of suitable implements to reduce the clod and draught force is still under investigation.

Predicting hydraulic conductivity changes from aggregate mean weight diameter [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2002
Rapid wetting of structurally unstable soils results in aggregate disintegration, soil densification, reduced porosity, and changes in the pore‐size distribution and intake hydraulic properties. Knowledge of changes in these properties is critical for use in hydrological, solute transport, or erosion models.

Mean‐weight diameter of aggregation as affected by initial screen size of two fine‐textured soils

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, 2023
Abstract Soil aggregation is considered a key indicator of soil health to protect soil against erosion, enhance organic C storage, and offer habitat for soil organisms. Various methods to assess aggregation may change interpretations of management, and therefore should be cross‐calibrated.

Effect of Organic and Chemical Conditioners on Aggregate Stability, Least Limiting Water Range and Integral Water Capacity under Wheat Cultivation in Saline Soils [PDF]

open access: yesمجله آب و خاک, 2022
IntroductionSoil salinity has a negative effect on physical, chemical and biological properties of soil. Salinity also affects the relationships between soil and plants, which in turn has a significant effect on plant growth. One of the solutions used to

The Effect of Zeolite on Aggregate Stability Indices

open access: yesمجله آب و خاک, 2016
Introduction: Soil structural stability affects the profitability and sustainability of agricultural systems. Particle size distribution (PSD) and aggregate stability are the important characteristics of soil. Aggregate stability has a significant impact
