Soil sodicity as a result of periodical drought

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2010
Soil sodicity development is a process that depends nonlinearly on both salt concentration and composition of soil water. In particular in hot climates, soil water composition is subject to temporal variation due to dry–wet cycles.

A review of sodicity and sodic soil behavior in Queensland

Australian Journal of Soil Research, 1994
The occurrence of sodic soils in Queensland is more related to soil genetic factors of the past than to the current rainfall pattern, with lower sodium accessions and smaller occurrence of saline lands than other areas of Australia. A soil sodicity map of Queensland is presented.

SODIC HAZARD

Soil Science, 1984
The authors studied the effect of salinity and sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) on the modified Gapon selectivity coefficient (k/sub g/') using Yolo loam soil and two (sodic) coal mine overburden materials designated surface and deep. The SAR treatments varied in value from 5 to 80 (mmol/L)/sup 1/2/ in an electrolyte solution (NaCl + CaCl/sub 2 ...

Use of langbeinite to reclaim sodic and saline sodic soils

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2000
Abstract Langbeinite is a soluble potassium‐magnesium sulfate mineral (K2SO42MgSO4) found as an evaporite in many regions of the world. Langbeinite was used as a reclaiming material in a fine textured (clay loam) saline sodic soil (Grabe Series). This amendment can be dissolved and directly into the irrigation water, displacing sodium (Na) quickly with

Irrigation and sodicity

Australian Journal of Soil Research, 1993
The productivity of irrigated agriculture in Australia is low for most crops and one important factor is the physical and chemical constraints caused by sodicity in the rootzone. Over 80% of the irrigated soils are sodic and have degraded structure limiting water and gas transport and root growth.

SODiCS on Challenged Communication Environment

2014 Eighth International Conference on Innovative Mobile and Internet Services in Ubiquitous Computing, 2014
Through we experienced at the Eastern Japan Great Earthquake on March 11, 2011, a disaster information gathering systems are strongly needed to widely collect the disaster state around the evaluated areas, correctly analyze the degree of damages and quickly make decision of disaster recovery response.

The effect of sodicity on the strength of a soil surface

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, 2002
Concern that sodicity developing at a soil surface might increase soil strength, and thus have an indirect adverse effect on germination, stimulated this investigation. The aim was to investigate the link between the strength developing at a soil surface
