Determination of bulk density of soil clod by saturation

Geoderma, 1971
Abstract A method for the bulk density determination on soil clod is described. Clods are oven-dried, weighed and equilibrated over water saturated sand columns. Total volume of the clod is computed from the volume of its components - solid, and air. Air volume is calculated from the increase in weight of the dry clod on saturation.

SOIL BULK DENSITY ESTIMATION FOR TILLAGE SYSTEMS AND SOIL TEXTURES

Transactions of the ASAE, 1998
Soil bulk density ( .b) is a physical property related to many phenomena, such as plant root development and solute transport in soils. In this study, a comprehensive data search of literature from 1980 to 1997 was made to examine .b as influenced by soil organic matter (OM), soil texture, primary tillage and secondary tillage practices and tillage ...

A STUDY OF BULK DENSITY AND WATER IN A SWELLING SOIL

Soil Science, 1964
In this examination of the character of the contraction of an undistrubed field soil, models for three-dimensional and undimensional contraction were set up from which changes in bulk density with moisture content could be predicted and the predictions compared with measured values.

Determination and Use of Soil Bulk Density in Relation to Soil Compaction

1994
Summary Bulk density and some related terms which quantify soil compactness are defined and discussed. Methods for measuring bulk density are considered in two groups. Direct methods involve the measurement of sample mass and volume, while indirect methods are based on the effect of soil on nuclear radiation.
