The role of conservation soil management on soil and water protection at different spatial scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Agriculture has a direct impact on the soil environment, altering soil properties, surface characteristics and erosion risk. This has led to a move away from conventional tillage to the adoption of conservation practices, aiming to minimise soil ...

Experimental Study on Relationship between Free Load Swelling Rate and Water Content of Medium Expansive Soil

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Expansive soil has the property of water swelling, which is related not only to the hydrophilic mineral composition of soil particles and the microstructure of soil, but also to the initial moisture content, dry density, and overburden condition of soil.
