Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity (Ks) is an important parameter for agriculture. Some
authors have studied Ks anisotropy in soils with different results. Several methods have …

Soil hydraulic conductivity is a property that describes how easily water can move through a
porous space and its determination is important because it controls many soil hydrological …

Soil compaction has been recognized as a severe problem in mechanized agriculture and
has an influence on many soil properties and processes. Yet, there are few studies on the …

Determination of soil physical quality (SPQ) is very important because it is related to many
important soil processes. However, it is not clear which indicators should be considered in …

Determination of soil hydraulic properties under non-saturated conditions is crucial in order
to describe soil water dynamics in the field. The objectives of this work were: i-to determine …

The concept of soil physical quality (SPQ) is currently under discussion, and an agreement
about which soil physical properties should be included in the SPQ characterization has not …

Soil water sorptivity (S) is an important property that measures the soil capacity to take water
rapidly under capillary forces. Usually S is not included in soil laboratory routine …

The area under the no-tillage system (NT) has been increasing over the last few years.
Some authors indicate that stabilization of soil physical properties is reached after some …
