Impact of Duration of Land Abandonment on Infiltration and Surface Runoff in Acidic Sandy Soil

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Sandy soils are less fertile and, therefore, often abandoned in the Central European region. Land abandonment can cause the recovery of ecosystems by the replacement of crop species by vegetation that disperses from surrounding habitats and will be ...

Spatiotemporal Variability of Soil Water Repellency in Urban Parks of Berlin

open access: yesSoil Systems
Urban green spaces are important components of city spaces that are vulnerable to degradation in soil–water–climate processes. This vulnerability is exacerbated by current climate change and park usage density.

Modelling Water Flow and Solute Transport for Horticultural and Environmental Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
During the past 10 years, the simulation model SWAP (Soil, Water, Atmosphere, Plant) was developed by the Sub-Department Water Resources of Wageningen University jointly with the Department Water and Environment of Alterra Green World Research.

Initial water repellency affected organic matter depletion rates of manure amended soils in Sri Lanka

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2014
The wetting rate of soil is a measure of water repellency, which is a property of soils that prevents water from wetting or penetrating into dry soil.

Eucalyptus reforestation induces soil water repellency [PDF]

open access: yesSoil Research, 2015
There is an increasing interest in eucalypt reforestation for a range of purposes in Australia, including pulp-wood production, carbon mitigation and catchment water management. The impacts of this reforestation on soil water repellency have not been examined despite eucalypts often being associated with water repellency and water repellency having ...

Impacts of grass removal on wetting and actual water repellency in a sandy soil

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
Soil water content and actual water repellency were assessed for soil profiles at two sites in a bare and grasscovered plot of a sand pasture, to investigate the impact of the grass removal on both properties.

Water repellency reduces soil CO2 efflux upon rewetting [PDF]

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2020
Carbon dioxide (CO2) efflux from soil represents one of the biggest ecosystem carbon (C) fluxes and high-magnitude pulses caused by rainfall make a substantial contribution to the overall C emissions. It is widely accepted that the drier the soil, the larger the CO2 pulses will be, but this notion has never been tested for water-repellent soils.
