Physical Properties of Sandy Soil Affected by Soil Conditioner Under Wetting and Drying cycles [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 1998 Information on the effectiveness of soil conditioners over a prolonged period is scarce. A laboratory experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of a polyacrylamide (Broadleaf P4) soil conditioner on the physical properties of sandy soil ...

Deterioration of the Internal Structure of Loess under Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 To understand the structural damage evolution process of loess under the action of dry‐wet cycles, a triaxial test of a dry‐wet cycle was performed by considering three influencing factors: initial moisture content, amplitude of the dry‐wet cycle, and number of dry‐wet cycles.

Prebiotic condensation through wet–dry cycling regulated by deliquescence [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 AbstractWet–dry cycling is widely regarded as a means of driving condensation reactions under prebiotic conditions to generate mixtures of prospective biopolymers. A criticism of this model is its reliance on unpredictable rehydration events, like rainstorms. Here, we report the ability of deliquescent minerals to mediate the oligomerization of glycine
