Soil organic matter, effects on soils and crops
Abstract. Manurial treatments and cropping history have remained unchanged for many years in classical and long‐term experiments at Rothamsted and Woburn, in some cases for more...
Analysis of Factors Controlling Soil Organic Matter Levels in Great Plains Grasslands
Abstract We analyzed climatic and textural controls of soil organic C and N for soils of the U.S. Great Plains. We used a model of soil organic matter (SOM) quantity and composi...
Modeling Surface and Subsurface Stormflow on Steeply-Sloping Forested Watersheds
Abstract: A simple conceptual rainfall-runoff model, based on the variable source area concept, was developed for predicting runoff from small, steep-sloped, forested Appalachia...
MOISTURE TENSION, DIFFUSIVITY, AND CONDUCTIVITY OF A LOAM SOIL DURING WETTING AND DRYING
Soil moisture tensions, diffusivities, and conductivities in packed columns of Grenville silt loam during wetting were compared with those during drying. In the moisture range 0...
Evaluation of the Palmer Drought Index on the Canadian Prairies
Abstract Drought on the Canadian prairies is the single most limiting factor to crop yield. Several indices have been developed that indicate the onset, severity, and persistenc...
