Soil hydrology and CO2 release of peat soils
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, 2002A simple model to predict soil water components and the CO2 release for peat soils is presented. It can be used to determine plant water uptake and the CO2 release as a result of peat mineralization for different types of peat soils, various climate conditions, and groundwater levels.

Stabilization of Peat Soil with Vegegrout
International Journal of Sustainable Construction Engineering and Technology, 2023A common issue in the construction industry is peat soil. Peat soil is very soft soil with a very low bearing capacity and is quickly compressible if the load is acting on it. Peat soil can produce significant ground settlement when loaded.This study added bacteria-producing vegetable waste to peat soil in order to assess how this addition affected ...

Plant and Soil, 1982
Determinations were made by an iodometric method and by gas-liquid chromatography (g.l.c.) of inorganic bromide and total bromine in two soils of widely differing organic matter content, and in eight types of peat. The volumetric method is responsive to both bromide and iodide and gave a combined value. The g.l.c.

Abstract Peat and organic soils cover about 6% of the landmass of Great Britain and Ireland as a whole, with Ireland and Scotland having percentages of 17% and 10%; extensive deposits are to be found in many other countries worldwide, such as Canada, Russia, Finland and Indonesia, to mention a few.

Modeling Moisture Retention in Peat Soils
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1998Abstract Soil moisture governs many biogeochemical processes in peatlands. Modeling of those processes relative to climate and anthropogenic influences requires knowledge of the basic hydraulic properties of different peat soils in a function form.

Denitrification in the top and sub soil of grassland on peat soils
Plant and Soil, 1996Denitrification is an important process in the nitrogen (N) balance of intensively managed grassland, especially on poorly drained peat soils. Aim of this study was to quantify the N loss through denitrification in the top and sub soil of grassland on peat soils.

The Occurrence of Carbazole in a Peat Soil
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1967Abstract A sample of Rifle peat soil was extracted with benzene‐methanol (10:1). The yield of extracted material was 1.5% (dry soil weight). This material was fractionated according to solubility in petroleum ether and ethanol. Carbazole was identified in the fraction soluble in both solvents.

Geotechnics of Organic Soils and Peat
2014Peat and organic soils commonly occur as extremely soft, wet, unconsolidated surficial deposits that are an integral part of wetland systems. These types of soils can give rise to geotechnical problems in the area of sampling, settlement, stability, in situ testing, stabilisation and construction.

GRASS PRODUCTION ON PEAT SOILS
Grass and Forage Science, 1970ABSTRACTWorld literature relating to grass production on peat soUs is reviewed. If initial nutrient deficiencies are adequately corrected the grass potential is high. DM yields of 6500 kg/ha are attainable with moderate fertilizing. A high level of output must he maintained to justify the cost of reclamation.
