Soil Water in Amended Landscape Soils [PDF]
HortScience, 2004 This study determined the effect of soil amendments on plant available water (PAW) and readily available water (RAW). Intact soil cores were collected from a Cecil sandy clay loam soil landscape planting beds that had been amended annually for 5 years with 5 cm (25% by volume) of pine bark and broiler litter.

Effect of Wheat Straw Biochar on Thermophysical Properties of Loessial Soil [PDF]
Nature Environment and Pollution Technology, 2021 Soil thermophysical properties are the key factors affecting the internal heat balance of soil. In this paper, biochars (BC300, BC500 and BC700) were produced with wheat straw at the temperatures of 300, 500 and 700°, respectively. The effects of biochar
