Cultivar-dependent differences in tuber growth cause increased soil resistance in potato fields [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Since soil compaction of potato fields delays shoot emergence and decreases total yield, the causes and effects of this compaction need to be better understood.

Effect of Dynamic Earth Vibration on the Behavior of Laterally Loaded Single Pile Embedded within Unsaturated Soil [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2021 Most of the studies of laterally loaded piles focused on the behavior for piles subjected to static or cyclic lateral loading embedded within dry or saturated soils, few studies investigate the behavior of piles embedded within partially saturated soils ...

Soil resistivity and ground resistance for dry and wet soil [PDF]
Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2015 In this paper, soil resistivity and ground resistance at two different sites near an electrical substation are measured using a grounding system grid with and without rods. With the Wenner four-pole equal-method, the soil resistivity is measured at both selected sites, one of which contains wet soil while the other contains dry soil.

Assessment of agro-morphological, physiological and yield traits diversity among tropical rice [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an essential staple food crop, but the per acre average rice yield is less than its substantial potential in many countries. Rice breeders and growers would benefit from a robust genotypes with better morpho-physiological and ...
