The spatial pattern of soil bulk density in the grasslands of northern China largely remains undefined, which raised uncertainty in understanding and modeling various soil processes in large spatial scale.

Modeling the Impact of Rhizosphere Bulk Density and Mucilage Gradients on Root Water Uptake
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

Bulk density of forested mineral soils. [PDF]
Relationships between bulk density and organic matter (OM) content, textural properties and depth are described for forested mineral soils from Central and Northern Finland. Core samples were taken of 0â5, 30â35 and 60â65 cm layers at 75 plots. Three measures of bulk density were calculated: the bulk density of the < 20 mm fraction (BD), the bulk ...

Machine-Learning Classification of Soil Bulk Density in Salt Marsh Environments
Remotely sensed data from both in situ and satellite platforms in visible, near-infrared, and shortwave infrared (VNIR–SWIR, 400–2500 nm) regions have been widely used to characterize and model soil properties in a direct, cost-effective, and rapid ...

Modeling soil bulk density at the landscape scale and its contributions to C stock uncertainty [PDF]
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
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)
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

Effects of Wetting-drying Cycles on Bulk Density and Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of Soils
【Objective】 Changes in density and hydraulic conductivity of soil not only modulate subsurface hydrological processes but also affect root growth and root uptake of water and nutrients from soil.
