Soil hydrostructural parameters under various soil management practices

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
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 ...

The Impact of CeO2 Engineered Nanomaterials on the Soil-Water Holding Properties: A Pedostructure Characterization Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
With the increase in the demand for food and clean water, non-conventional water reuse has taken a lot of attention recently. However, the impact of the reused water is still being researched. A widely used variety of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have

Quantification of Available Water Content Comparing Standard Methods and the Pedostructure Concept on Four Different Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the pedostructure soil concept to determine the available water within soil. Specifically, the hydro-structural behavior of the soil in the pedostructure is compared to standard methods of determining ...

Hydrostructural Pedology, New Scientific Discipline Allowing for Physical Modelling of ‘Green Water’ Dynamics in the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere System

open access: yes, 2018
Using a new paradigm of soil characterization and modeling in agro environmental sciences, named hydrostructural pedology, we were able to show that the “green water” concept of agronomists corresponds exactly to the pedostructural water concept which ...

Estimation and evolution of the pedostructure parameters

open access: yes, 2009
The pedostructure concept is an improved method of predicting the behavior of the soil-water media by characterizing a soil based upon physically-based soil structural properties.

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 ...

Effect of Municipal Treated Wastewater and Brackish Groundwater on the Water Holding Properties of a Clayey, Calcareous Soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Wastewater reuse is a practice that has been gaining attention for the past few decades as the world’s population rises and water resources become scarce.

Impact of Microplastics on Soil Health: Soil-Water Retention, Shrinkage and Holding Properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
While microplastics in the ocean have been heavily studied, their impact on soils have not. Current research suggests microplastics are just as prevalent in freshwater and land as in the ocean and should be considered a pollutant due to the potential ...

Determination of soil hydraulic properties using the soil pedostructure concept

open access: yes, 2003
The observed soil water properties such as Field Capacity, Permanent Wilting Point, Water Potential and Hydraulic Conductivity are expressions of the internal soil structure and are all connected to Water Matric Potential.
