ORIGEM DOS COMPOSTOS HIDROFÓBICOS E SEUS EFEITOS EM FLORESTAS DE Pinus E Eucalyptus

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2015
Hydrophobicity can be understood as the soil water repellency or difficulty to soil wetting. This is associated with the coating of soil particles by hydrophobic organic substances and currently there are numerous reports of water repellency in forest ...

Mortars From Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto: Materials, Formulations, and Technology

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents an archaeometric investigation of 18 hydraulic rendering and bedding mortars from Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto (NW Sicily). The research aimed to characterize raw materials, reconstruct manufacturing sequences, and evaluate technological proficiency through mineralogical and petrochemical analyses.

Measurements of water repellency and infiltration of the soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Soil water repellency is a reduction in the rate of wetting caused by the presence of hydrophobic coatings on soil particles. The occurrence of the absorption of water from the surface of the ground in its interior is called infiltration.

Soil water repellency decreases summer maize growth

open access: yes, 2019
A two-year summer maize irrigation experiment was conducted in soil lysimeters under a rain-shelter to analyze the effects of water repellency on soil moisture, evapotranspiration, crop growth, and yields.

Attractiveness of Melon Genotypes to Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Mediated by Foliar Morphological and Biochemical Traits

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study identifies melon genotypes resistant to Bemisia tabaci by integrating morphological and biochemical leaf traits. Using free‐choice and no‐choice assays, we demonstrate that resistance is primarily mediated by antixenosis. Genotypes CNPH 11‐1071‐43, CNPH 06‐1047‐343, CNPH 13‐1076, and BG MEL 16 significantly reduced whitefly settling and ...

Natural and fire-induced soil water repellency in a Portugese Shrubland

open access: yes, 2011
Post-fire land degradation is often attributed to fire-induced soil water repellency, despite the fact that soil water repellency is a natural phenomenon in many soils and is therefore not necessarily caused by fire.

Pesticide Leaching from Agricultural Fields with Ridges and Furrows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the evaluation of the risk of pesticide leaching to groundwater, the soil surface is usually assumed to be level, although important crops like potato are grown on ridges.

Application of minidisk infiltrometer to estimate water repellency in Mediterranean pine forest soils

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
Assessment of soil water repellency (SWR) was conducted in the decomposed organic floor layer (duff) and in the mineral soil layer of two Mediterranean pine forests, one in Italy and the other in Spain, by the widely-used water drop penetration time ...
