Compaction of agricultural soils is a concern for many agricultural soil scientists and farmers
since soil compaction, due to heavy field traffic, has resulted in yield reduction of most …

Agricultural management practices can significantly affect soil hydraulic properties and
processes in space and time. These responses are coupled with the processes of infiltration …

The aim of this paper is to clarify the effect of soil aggregation on soil physical and chemical
properties of structured soils both on a bulk soil scale, for single aggregates, as well as for …

Tillage and traffic modify soil porosity and pore size distribution, leading to changes in the
unsaturated hydraulic properties of the tilled layer. These changes are still difficult to …

There is considerable discussion about the influence of soil management techniques on soil
erosion, water use and conservation, and more recently carbon dioxide sequestration and …

A qualidade física de solos agrícolas pode ser afetada pelo sistema de manejo, sendo a
magnitude das alterações dependente do tempo de uso do solo e das condições …

Compaction disrupts soil structure, reducing root growth, nutrient and water uptake, gas
exchange, and microbial growth. Root growth inhibition by soil compaction was originally …

Dans ce tome, les principales connaissances sur les phénomènes physiques et chimiques
dont le sol est le siège sont exposées. Elles sont complétées par la description du rôle des …

No sistema de plantio direto, a ausência de revolvimento do solo, aliada ao tráfego de
máquinas, promove a compactação excessiva do solo em superfície. Com o objetivo de …

The water retention curve (WRC) of arable soils from the southeastern United States at
different levels of compaction (no compaction, and 10 and 20% increases in soil bulk …
