Aggregate stability in soils cultivated with eucalyptus. [PDF]
, 2019 The objective of this work was to evaluate the aggregate stability of tropical soils under eucalyptus plantation and native vegetation, and assess the relationships between aggregate stability and some soil chemical and physical properties.

Higher plant diversity enhances soil stability in disturbed alpine ecosystems [PDF]
, 2018 Plant diversity is hypothesised to increase soil stability by increasing the diversity of root types. To test this hypothesis, we took soil cores from machine-graded ski slopes and from the adjacent undisturbed vegetation as a control.

Using factor analysis to distinguish between effective and ineffective aggregate stability indices [PDF]
, 2012 Several existing aggregate stability indices are commonly used to represent aggregate stability of soil. Consequently, there is a need to determine how well these common indices characterize or represent aggregate stability.

DOC trail: soil organic matter quality and soil aggregate stability in organic and conventional soils [PDF]
, 2000 Conclusion Soil organic matter quality is affected by the agricultural systems of the DOC trial. System effects on the chemical composition, however, were smaller than those on the living organisms in soil and their functions.

The relationship between plant species richness and soil aggregate stability can depend on disturbance [PDF]
, 2018 Aims: Plant diversity has been shown to significantly increase topsoil aggregate stability of machine-graded ski slopes. We hypothesise that this effect is specific for these disturbed sites and that at sites of low and no disturbance the effect ...

The influence of organic amendments on soil aggregate stability from semiarid sites [PDF]
, 2016 Restoring the native vegetation is the most effective way to regenerate soil health. Under these conditions, vegetation cover in areas having degraded soils may be better sustained if the soil is amended with an external source of organic matter.

Soil Aggregate Stability: Its Evaluation and Relation to Organic Matter Constituents and Other Soil Properties [PDF]
, 1996 The purpose of this study were: 1) to compare the aggregate stability of individual aggregate size fractions, 2) to determine the interrelationship and efficiency of several aggregate stability indices, and 3) to determine the relationship and ...
