Soil mixing of stratified contaminated sands
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2000Validation of soil mixing for the treatment of contaminated ground is needed in a wide range of site conditions to widen the application of the technology and to understand the mechanisms involved. Since very limited work has been carried out in heterogeneous ground conditions, this paper investigates the effectiveness of soil mixing in stratified ...

Sand Content of Sand‐Soil‐Peat Mixtures for Turfgrass
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1979Abstract Soils subjected to intensive foot‐traffic in areas used for sports usually require modification in order to maintain physical properties conducive to turfgrass growth. Commonly this is achieved by mixing soil with large quantities of sand and often some peat.

Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommendations for Sugarcane Production for Sugar on Florida Sand Soils
EDIS, 2016Sands used in sugarcane production in Florida have low levels of organic matter, silt, and clay, and they provide little nitrogen (N) through mineralization of organic matter and possess a low capacity for N retention as a result. Because these soils are

Soil microbial community of abandoned sand fields
Folia Microbiologica, 2002Microbiological evaluation of sandy grassland soils from two different stages of secondary succession on abandoned fields (4 and 8 years old fallow) was carried out as a part of research focused on restoration of semi-natural vegetation communities in Kiskunság National Park in Hungary.

Growing Sand‐Based Sod Using Transported Sand over Native Soil
International Turfgrass Society Research Journal, 2017Turfgrass establishment on sand‐based rootzones is routinely accomplished using sod produced on a fine‐textured native soil. As a result, soil layering occurs, potentially causing initial reduction in water infiltration, rooting, aeration, playability, and overall turfgrass quality.

Chain-Soil Interaction in Carbonate Sand
Offshore Technology Conference, 2016Abstract The design of mooring anchors of Floating LNG systems on Australia's North West Shelf (NWS) is challenging due to the high mooring loads and the seabed which comprises carbonate soils. Anchors with an embedded padeye require engineering of the chain inverse catenary and management of interfaces between the anchor and mooring ...

Phosphate Removal by Sands and Soils
Groundwater, 1977ABSTRACT Phosphate retention by soils is especially important for tile fields and rapid infiltration systems near lakes where eutrophication is a problem. The use and application of the phosphate adsorption isotherm test to estimate a soil's phosphate removal ability will be discussed.

Expansive Soil Improvement with Weathered Sand
ICTE 2013, 2013An innovative modification method by adding weathered sand into expansive soil was proposed based on the characteristics that the expansive soil would swell and shrink with super-hydrophilic property and low-permeability under the condition of increasing and decreasing water content, respectively.
