Measurement of Soil Bulk Density and Moisture

Transactions of the ASAE, 1987
ABSTRACT BULK density and moisture content of soil influence the soil conditions created by tillage, vehicle trafficability, soil compaction caused by vehicles, water infiltration and drainage, and crop growth. Measurement and description of soil conditions are necessary for correct management decisions to create soil conditions that will maximize ...

Computing bulk density of swelling soils

Soil Technology, 1989
Summary A procedure for computing bulk density of a soil with swelling clays at any moisture content between saturation and shrinkage limit is presented. The method is simple and involves only one sampling at any field moisture content above the soil's shrinkage limit.

Grassland management effects on soil bulk density

Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science, 2004
Abstract Various grassland management regimes have been and are being utilized in northeastern Kansas, all of which could impact soil properties. Differences in one such property, soil bulk density, could indicate differences in soil quality. Five regimes of privately managed grasslands (cool-season: hay or grazed, warm season: hay, grazed or ...

Bulk Density Sampler for Deep Soil Profiles

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1975
Abstract A bulk density sampler, adapted from a conventional commercial type, was constructed and used to obtain soil samples at more than 50 sampling sites from depths to 30 m. This sampler increased the speed with which samples were taken because it was readily added to or detached from the drilling unit between sequences of ...

Use of Soil Cores in Determining Bulk Density

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1971
Abstract The bulk density of soil samples obtained with a hydraulic soil coring machine, for both core segments and clods, was compared to the bulk density of soil samples obtained with a Uhland sampler and natural clods taken from a soil pit. Subsurface, upper B, and lower B horizon samples were compared.

Organic Matter as a Measure of Bulk Density of Soil

Nature, 1966
THE compactness of a soil is known to be related to its content of water and air, and to the temperature and the supply of nutrients1,2. Although a rough estimate of compactness is sometimes obtained with penetrometers, bulk density provides a more correct overall picture of the physical conditions of a soil.

SOIL BULK DENSITY EFFECTS ON RUNOFF ESTIMATION

Influence of Soil Bulk Density on Matric Potential

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1962
Abstract Unsaturated soil samples were compressed at three different moisture contents and temperatures to evaluate these interrelations with soil moisture matric potential. It was found that in all cases increasing bulk density, at constant moisture content and temperature, resulted in an increase in soil moisture matric potential ...

BULK DENSITY EQUATIONS FOR SOUTHERN ALASKA SOILS

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 1989
A close relationship between organic-carbon content and bulk density was utilized to develop equations for predicting the bulk densities of inorganic soils around the Gulf of Alaska; for example[Formula: see text]where Db is the bulk density (Mg m−3) of fine-earth and OC is the organic carbon content (g kg−1).
