Soil aggregation under different management systems [PDF]
, 2012 Considering that the soil aggregation reflects the interaction of chemical, physical and biological soil factors, the aim of this study was evaluate alterations in aggregation, in an Oxisol under no-tillage (NT) and conventional tillage (CT), since over ...

Effect of Crop Residue Decomposition on Soil Aggregate Stability [PDF]
Agriculture, 2020 The decomposition of fresh crop residues added to soil for agricultural purposes is complex. This is due to different factors that influence the decomposition process. In field conditions, the incorporation of crop residues into soil does not always have a positive effect on aggregate stability.

Abiotic and Biotic Factors Influencing the Effect of Microplastic on Soil Aggregation [PDF]
, 2019 Plastic is an anthropogenic, ubiquitous and persistent contaminant accumulating in our environment. The consequences of the presence of plastics for soils, including soil biota and the processes they drive, are largely unknown.

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.

Gas Displacement and Aggregate Stability of Soils [PDF]
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1985 Abstract When surface soils are dry, O 2 and N 2 are adsorbed on the external mineral surfaces. In the process of wetting the soil, water molecules displace the adsorbed O 2 and N

Assessment of selected soil parameters in a long-term Western Canadian organic field experiment [PDF]
, 2007 A long-term field study was used to compare soil nitrogen and phosphorous status, and soil aggregate stability in organic and conventional cropping systems. Two rotations were tested: a grain only and a grain-alfalfa hay rotation.

Wet Aggregate Stability in Soil v2
, 2023 The wet sieving technique measures the percentage of water-stable aggregates in soils. It is a soil quality assessment analysis. Aggregate stability refers to the ability of soil aggregates to resist disintegration.

Response of hydro-physical properties of a Chromic Luvisol in Ghana to different methods of application of Mucuna pruriens as a soil amendments [PDF]
, 2017 The study assessed the response of hydro-physical properties of Chromic Luvisol to different methods of application of Mucuna pruriens as a soil amendments in two separate experiments. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications was

Quicklime application instantly increases soil aggregate stability
International Agrophysics, 2016 Abstract Agricultural intensification, especially enhanced mechanisation of soil management, can lead to the deterioration of soil structure and to compaction. A possible amelioration strategy is the application of (structural) lime. In this study, we tested the effect of two different liming materials, ie limestone (CaCO3) and quicklime (CaO), on soil
