Characteristics stochastic analysis of long and narrow deep excavations under soil spatial variability [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe mechanical properties of soil, resulting from the weathering of rocks through physical and chemical processes, exhibit spatial variability. This variability introduces uncertainties in the design and characteristics of excavation projects. To address

Effects of soil spatial variability on structural reliability assessment in excavations
Underground Space, 2020 In this study, the effects of soil spatial variability in braced excavations are investigated by focusing on three structural responses: wall bending moments, wall shear forces, and strut forces. The soil spatial variability is modeled using random field

Spatial variability and its scale dependency of observed and modeled soil moisture over different climate regions [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Past studies on soil moisture spatial variability have been mainly conducted at catchment scales where soil moisture is often sampled over a short time period; as a result, the observed soil moisture often exhibited smaller dynamic ranges, which ...

Geological influence on the spatial variability of soils
International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2021 An evaluation of the spatial correlation length of two geological formations known as mudflows and residual soils has been conducted using standard penetration test (N1)60 values. The spatial correlation length is an important property in reliability-based design, in addition to the mean and standard deviation of soil parameters, but it is rarely ...

Spatial variability in soil pH and land use as the main influential factor in the red beds of the Nanxiong Basin, China [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Soil pH is the main factor affecting soil nutrient availability and chemical substances in soil. It is of great significance to study the spatial variability of soil pH for the management of soil nutrients and the prediction of soil pollution.

Spatial mapping of soil respiration using auxiliary variables. A small scale study [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2021 Soil respiration is a significant contributor to the global emissions of CO2 and is governed by many soil factors. Reliable estimates of CO2 emission on different scales (e.g., field, regional level) are hard to obtain due to the expressed spatial and ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Species diversity has spatial heterogeneity in ecological systems. Although a large number of studies have demonstrated the influence of soil properties on species diversity, most of them have not considered their spatial variabilities.
