Improving aggregate stability and hydraulic properties of Sandy loam soil by applying polyacrylamide polymer

, 2021
Improving soil properties, especially in arid and semiarid regions, is an urgent need for sustainable food production. This study aims to evaluate the effect of applying two types of anionic polyacrylamide polymers (PAMs) with different molecular weights

Effect of Grazing Exclusion and Rotational Grazing on Soil Aggregate Stability in Typical Grasslands in Inner Mongolia, China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Soil aggregate is extremely important for soil health and sustainable land management. Overgrazing has caused serious degeneration of grassland in the past decades and how to restore the degraded soil through grazing management is urgently needed.

Soil Aggregate Stability in Salt-Affected Vineyards: Depth-Wise Variability Analysis

Land, 2022
Soil aggregate stability is an ideal integrative soil quality indicator, but little is known about the relevance of such an indicator with soil depth for salt-affected soils.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal hyphal networks and glomalin-related soil protein jointly promote soil aggregation and alter aggregate hierarchy in Calcaric Regosol

Geoderma
The Loess Plateau of China (LPC) is one of the most severely eroded areas in the arid and semi-arid regions of northern China. Improving soil aggregate stability and hierarchy in Calcaric Regosol is vital for mitigating soil erosion.

Quantifying the contribution of the root system of alpine vegetation in the soil aggregate stability of moraine

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2017
One fifth of the world's population is living in mountains or in their surrounding areas. This anthropogenic pressure continues to grow with the increasing number of settlements, especially in areas connected to touristic activities, such as the Italian ...

Effects of freeze-thaw cycles on the size distribution and stability of soil aggregate in the permafrost regions of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Environmental Research Communications, 2023
As the basic units of soil structure, soil aggregate is essential for maintaining soil stability. Intensified freeze–thaw cycles have deeply affected the size distribution and stability of aggregate under global warming.

Aggregation characteristics and maturity of Peak District soils [PDF]

, 1969
Soil aggregation and aggregate stability are fundamental factors in determination of soil erodibility. The aggregation characteristics of soils in a region of high erosion potential are measured, and controlling factors examined.
