Dry–wet cycles increase pesticide residue release from soil [PDF]
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2012 AbstractSoil drying and rewetting may alter the release and availability of aged pesticide residues in soils. A laboratory experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of soil drying and wetting on the release of pesticide residues. Soil containing environmentally long-term aged (9–17 years) 14C-labeled residues of the herbicides ethidimuron (ETD)

Effect of wetting-drying cycles on soil desiccation cracking behaviour
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 Better understanding the desiccation cracking process is essential in analysing drought effects on soil hydraulic and mechanical properties through consideration of the atmosphere-ground interaction.

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019 Compacted soil is widely used in road and railway subgrade, while alternation of seasons can cause fluctuations in moisture content of soil (i.e., wetting-drying cycles) and influence the performance of soil.

Drying-Wetting Cycles: Effect on Deep Soil Carbon [PDF]
Soil Systems, 2018 In the Southeast United States (U.S.), the climate is predicted to be warmer and have more severe drought in the summer. Decreasing rainfall in summer months should create more severe soil drying, which will eventually affect re-wetting cycles deeper in the soil profile.

Aging of recycled aggregates mortars by drying-wetting cycles
Construction and Building Materials, 2021 ABSTRACT: Due to the large amount of CO2 emissions produced nowadays by the construction sector, the scientific community is looking for measures that will bring constructions to the be as environmental-friendly as possible. One of the most popular lines of research is the use of construction waste as recycled aggregates for the production of recycled ...

Nonequilibrium Wet–Dry Cycling Acts as a Catalyst for Chemical Reactions
The Journal of Physical Chemistry BRecent experimental studies suggest that wet-dry cycles and coexisting phases can each strongly alter chemical processes. The mechanisms of why and to which degree chemical processes are altered when subject to evaporation and condensation are unclear. To close this gap, we developed a theoretical framework for non-dilute chemical reactions subject to ...
