Morphology of rain water channelization in systematically varied model sandy soils [PDF]
We visualize the formation of fingered flow in dry model sandy soils under different raining conditions using a quasi-2d experimental set-up, and systematically determine the impact of soil grain diameter and surface wetting property on water ...

Multiple benefits of manure: the key to maintenance of soil fertility and restoration of depleted sandy soils on African smallholder farms [PDF]
Manure is a key nutrient resource on smallholder farms in the tropics, especially on poorly buffered sandy soils, due to its multiple benefits for soil fertility. Farmers preferentially apply manure to fields closest to homesteads (homefields), which are

Interactions between metals and soil organic matter in various particle size fractions of soil contaminated with waste water [PDF]
Only scarce field studies concern the consequences of natural soil organic matter (SOM) and metal interactions on SOM dynamics in soils. We investigated the interactions of four metals (Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd) with the SOM associated to five different size ...

A Rhizogenic Biostimulant Effect on Soil Fertility and Roots Growth of Turfgrass
The excessive use of chemical fertilizers can lead to severe environmental damages. In recent decades, the application of biostimulants to improve soil composition and stimulate plant growth has contributed significantly to environmental preservation. In

INFLUENCE OF TEXTURE ON THE PHYSIOLOGICAL PROFILE OF SOIL ON FOREST VEGETATION [PDF]
The establishment of a wisely fertilization system in forest crops is only possible if soil characteristics are distinguished, which determine to a large extent the ability of plants to use nutrients in soil.
