Software for micromorphometric characterization of soil pores obtained from 2-D image analysis

Scientia Agricola, 2016
Studies of soil porosity through image analysis are important to an understanding of how the soil functions. However, the lack of a simplified methodology for the quantification of the shape, number, and size of soil pores has limited the use of ...

Adsorption of Forever Chemical Pollutants: The Physical Chemistry of PFAS Near Surfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Current adsorption‐based remediation techniques for removing per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water are limited by knowledge gaps on PFAS behavior near solid surfaces. This review provides a state of the art on theoretical and experimental aspects of PFAS adsorption.

Effects of Biochar and PGPR Application on the Physicochemical Properties and Humus Components of Soil Used for Planting Fruit Mulberry Seedlings Under Salt Stress

Biology
Biochar can act as a carrier and a soil carbon source for rapid colonization by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). However, the effects of a combined application of biochar and PGPR on soil physicochemical properties, humus components, and ...

Acute Sensitivity of Landslide Rates to Initial Soil Porosity

Science, 2000
Some landslides move imperceptibly downslope, whereas others accelerate catastrophically. Experimental landslides triggered by rising pore water pressure moved at sharply contrasting rates due to small differences in initial porosity. Wet sandy soil with porosity of about 0.5 contracted during slope failure, partially liquefied, and accelerated within ...

Grass Clippings Mulching Improves Infiltrability of Low-Permeability Dryland Soils

Air, Soil and Water Research
In arid and semiarid regions, the high compactness and poor water permeability of the soils severely limit agricultural production. This study aims to shed light on techniques to enhance the permeability of these soils—specifically, by improving soil ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.
