Soil compaction and vegetation cover in a Scots pine stand at the Mediterranean rangelands [PDF]
, 2011 Right development of ROOT SYSTEMS is essential to ensure seedling survival in the initial stages of natural regeneration processes. Soil compaction determines this development both because of its influence on soil Tª & moisture dynamics and for its ...

Foam used during EPB tunnelling in saturated sand, parameters determining foam consumption [PDF]
, 2012 The amount of foam injected during drilling with an EPB-shield in saturated sand is quite often based on experience and/or empiric relations. A method is presented in to calculate the amount of foam needed to create a muck with limited or no grain stress.

THE VOLUME AND POROSITY OF SOIL CRUMBS
Journal of Soil Science, 1966 Summary A simple and inexpensive apparatus (a test‐tube, burette, and pin) is described for measuring volumes by liquid displacement to an accuracy of greater than 0.5 per cent. This has been adapted to measure soil crumb porosities, ε c
