A novel heat-pulse probe for measuring soil thermal conductivity: Field test under different tillage practices [PDF]
Accurate soil thermal conductivity (λ) measurements are needed in experimental agri-environmental research. This study design and build of new heat-pulse probe (HPP) based on transient state technology to measure λ.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Pedotransfer function for calculating the potential of volume changes in soils
The volume changes in the soils are manifested both by the formation of cracks and by the vertical movement of the soil surface. Both of these could be generally negative for engineering constructions.

Modeling for Estimation of the Field Capacity Moisture of Different Soils in Semi-arid Area [PDF]
Modeling of water flow through vadose zone under unsaturated conditions necessitates the knowledge of soil hydraulic properties, which are water retention curve and water field capacity of soil.

Abstract Soil organic carbon (SOC) storage represents one of the most critical ecosystem services provided by soils, yet scientific assessments frequently focus on surface layers, overlooking deeper horizons. In this study, we investigated SOC stocks and spatial patterns of soil δ13C across three contrasting land use and land cover (LULC) types in ...

Abstract Understanding how temporal patterns of moisture and temperature variability influence biogeochemical responses remains a central challenge in modeling the Earth system. Jensen's inequality provides a mathematical framework for quantifying when nonlinear processes cause the response to average conditions to differ systematically from the ...
