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

, 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.

Assessing various wetting agents on golf putting greens comprised of calcareous and siliceous sand-based rootzones

, 2019
Maximizing the amount of water that reaches the rootzones is important for maintaining healthy golf greens. This study compared various wetting agent treatments on calcareous and siliceous sand putting greens to determine their capabilities of reaching ...

Intensity and Persistence of Soil Water Repellency in Pine Forest Soil in a Temperate Continental Climate under Drought Conditions

, 2018
Although soil water repellency (SWR) has been reported under different soils, climates, and vegetation types of the world, especially in forest land and following wildfires, the understanding of this variable continues to be rather limited.

Mitigating the detrimental impacts of low- and high-density polyethylene microplastics using a novel microbial consortium on a soil-plant system: Insights and interactions

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
The accumulation of polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) in soil has raised considerable concerns; however, the effects of their persistence and mitigation on agroecosystems have not been explored.

Water quality and surfactant effects on the water repellency of a sandy soil [PDF]

, 2011
Differences in irrigation water quality may affect the water repellency of soils treated or untreated with surfactants. Using simulated irrigations, we evaluated water quality and surfactant application rate effects upon the water repellency of a Quincy
