Modeling the Impact of Rhizosphere Bulk Density and Mucilage Gradients on Root Water Uptake
Frontiers in Agronomy, 2021 In models of water flow in soil and roots, differences in the soil hydraulic properties of the rhizosphere and the bulk soil are usually neglected. There is, however, strong experimental evidence that rhizosphere and bulk soil hydraulic properties differ

Modeling soil bulk density at the landscape scale and its contributions to C stock uncertainty [PDF]
, 2012 Soil bulk density (Db) is a major contributor to uncertainties in landscape-scale carbon and nutrient stock estimation. However, it is time consuming to measure and is, therefore, frequently predicted using surrogate variables, such as soil texture ...

Considering the soil compaction status on logging areas in a Hyrcanian forest
Journal of Forest Science, 2015 This paper deals with the issue of soil compaction during timber harvesting operations on cutting areas. Soil compaction was assessed following the logging operation in Darabkola forest area by measuring soil bulk density.

Soil compaction caused by 450C Timber Jack wheeled skidder (Shefarood forest, northern Iran)
Journal of Forest Science, 2007 In forest harvesting operations usually after using skidding machinery (skidders), traces of soil damage in the form of soil compaction and wheel and logs ruts can be seen in the forest soil. Soil bulk density, which represents soil compaction, decreases
