Composted organic materials used to stabilize roadside embankments in Texas promote rapid revegetation of soils disturbed by construction activities. Yet, adding compost to soil may increase total and soluble plant nutrients available for loss in runoff water. Composted municipal biosolids and dairy manure products were applied to soils in Texas according to prescribed Texas Department of Transportation specifications for stabilizing roadside soils. The specifications included a method for incorporating compost into soils prior to seeding or applying a compost and woodchip mix over a disturbed

Abstract:

A laboratory study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different factors on ammonia volatilization losses in flooded alkali soils (ESP 26 & 82). Incubation studies in these soils showed that the losses were largely governed by pH/alkalinity of the system. The duration of presubmergence decreased the cumulative ammonia volatilization losses from 19.2 to 13.5 per cent in ESP 26 soil and 22.5 to 16.0 per cent in ESP 82 soil at 0.5 and 10 cm floodwater depths, respectively. Flooding of the soil decreased the soil pH resulting in lower losses from 23.9 to 16.9 per cent in ESP 26 soil and 27

Abstract:

Soil moisture and Olsen P concentrations play an important role in phosphorus (P) losses in runoff. Under moisture-rich anaerobic conditions, the reduction of Fe-oxides dissolves P from the soil into solution that may be available for loss by transport processes. Under very dry conditions, soil hydrophobicity induced by soil organic C can exacerbate infiltration-excess surface flow and soil erosion. Our hypotheses were as follows: (1) rainfall applied to a dry soil would cause greater particulate P losses in surface runoff due to hydrophobicity; (2) P losses from a wet soil would be dominated

Most soils suitable for dryland agriculture in north-west Australia occur in the Daly Basin. These are sesquioxidic soils which include red, yellow and grey earths, and soils related to yellow and red earths. The potential, for these arable soils to be degraded by highly erosive rainfalls, common to the region, is high. Farming practices strongly influence the soil surface characteristics (vegetation cover, roughness, soil strength), which in turn control surface runoff, and sediment detachment and transport.

Effluent-irrigated tree plantations are becoming a popular alternative to the direct discharge of sewerage effluent into inland rivers. However, when irrigated at the water-use rate of the plantation, nitrogen (N) applied in the effluent often exceeds the demand of the trees both in the early stages of growth and after canopy closure when much of the N is supplied from the decomposition of litter. With the ample supply of water and large loadings of N, conditions are conducive to significant N losses.

Abstract:

Background In order to counteract the eutrophication of waterways and reservoirs, a basic risk assessment of phosphorus (P) losses in the surface runoff from agricultural land should be included in water management plans. A new method has been developed to assess the risk of P losses by estimating the degree of P saturation (DPS) based on the P concentration of the water extract water-soluble P. Methods The risk of P losses in surface runoff from agricultural land in the Puck Commune on the Baltic Sea Coast was assessed with the DPS method. The results were compared to an agronomic interpretat

Abstract:

SummaryVolatilization of ammonia from urea applied to rice on a soil of pH 9·3 was measured during 1982 and 1983 at Karnal. For three moisture regimes (continuous submergence, and irrigation 1 day and 4 days following subsidence of ponded water) mean ammonia losses varied from 28·2 to 31·8 kg N/ha. For urea applications between 40 and 120 kg N/ha, mean ammonia losses varied from 26.1 to 33.7 kg N/ha. Ammonia losses were highest on the second day following urea application and dropped to near zero 7–8 days after application.

The volatilization, photolysis, microbial degradation, and field persistence of imazethapyr were studied using formulated and14C-labeled imazethapyr. Volatilization losses from soil were less than 2%. Photodecomposition losses of up to 8% occurred from soil and up to 52% from a glass slide with no soil. Significantly greater photodecomposition occurred with chain-labeled than ring-labeled14C-imazethapyr. The amount of14CO2evolution from soil treated with either ring- or chain-labeled14C-imazethapyr was not significantly different. The total14CO2evolved from the soils ranged from 2.4 to 3.6% of

A physical model was used to assess the effects of surface waterlogging and soil salinity on the productivity of winter cereals and irrigated dairy pastures on irrigation farms in the Berriquin and Wakool Irrigation Districts of the Murray Valley region of New South Wales. Parameters describing the physical properties of major soil types were combined with statistically derived estimates of rainfall excess over evapotranspiration to establish the incidence of waterlogging. Soils predisposed to waterlogging occupy 150000 ha of Berriquin District (45% of District) and 24 800 ha of Wakool Distric

Experiments using cultivars with differing degrees of striga resistance were conducted at two sites at Kamboinse in 1988 and at two locations (Kamboinse and Kouare) in 1989 in the Sudan-Savannah region of Burkina Faso. At each site, striga-free (SFP) and striga-infested plots (SIP) were selected. Two factors, location and genotype, were found to be associated additively with yield losses in soils infested by striga. The location effect was probably due to lower soil fertility in the SIP than the SFP plots under farming conditions. Yield losses in SIP relative to SFP ranged from 3·1%, at the ex

Abstract:

Irrigation is likely to increase water losses from hillslopes, particularly on loess-derived soils with impeded drainage. This is important as irrigation of these soils in New Zealand is increasing. A field site was established to measure runoff from a pasture hillslope irrigated by a centre-pivot in South Canterbury. Between November and March, 161 and 199 mm of irrigation was applied, with 23% more at the bottom of the slope. Runoff varied with position in the hillslope, with 3.5 times from the bottom plot (52 mm) compared to the top. Over the length of the slope (40 m) this represents a pot

Abstract:

In a 10-year laboratory experiment on columns, the migration mobility of calcium remaining in dolomite-reclaimed sod-podzolic soil after harvesting crops was studied. A “fund” of calcium compounds capable of migration in years with average long-term, excessive and insufficient levels of moisture has been identified. It was found that an increase in the volume of drained moisture contributed to an increase in unproductive calcium losses. The higher the dose of dolomite and the smaller the particle size, the greater the eluvial calcium loss. It is shown that the bulk of the calcium capable of mi

Abstract:

Sustainable land management requires that water and matter (nutrients and base cations) are efficiently recycled within ecosystems so that irreversible losses of matter from topsoils are minimised. Matter losses are connected to water flow. The division of water into evapotranspiration that is loss-free, and seepage to groundwater or surface water flow that both carry material losses, is decisive in determining total losses of dissolved matter in a given catchment. Investigations of areal matter losses confirmed the instrumental role of vegetation cover. Areal matter losses measured in agricul

Cs-137 redistribution data have been used to estimate the extent and the pattern of long-term soil erosion in the Québec City area. Mean annual net soil movements ranging from a deposition of 10.8 t ha−1 yr−1 to a loss of 31.8 t ha−1 yr−1 were estimated. The slope steepness and the land use significantly influenced the estimated rates of soil movement, while soil texture was less important, probably because of the soils’ sandy texture or the high content of organic carbon, which kept their erodibility low. The net soil losses estimated from Cs-137 data were consistently higher than those predi

Abstract. Pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) plays an important role as a stable carbon (C) sink in the soils of terrestrial ecosystems. However, uncertainties remain about in situ turnover rates of fire-derived PyOM in soil, the main processes leading to PyOM-C and nitrogen (N) losses from the soil, and the role of N availability on PyOM cycling in soils. We measured PyOM and native soil organic carbon losses from the soil as carbon dioxide and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) using additions of highly 13C-labelled PyOM (2.03 atom %) and its precursor pinewood during 1 year in a temperate forest s

Context Soils irrigated with wastewater are generally phosphorus (P)-enriched. P losses from these soils may impair surface water quality. However, wastewater applications also alter soil pH and P availability. Aims We investigated if amending soils with aluminium (Al), iron (Fe) or calcium (Ca) sorbents could decrease the potential for P losses despite altering soil pH and potentially increasing soil P availability. Methods Seven soils (pH 5.3–6.9) were incubated with lime, gypsum, hydrotalcite, alum sulfate, ferric sulfate, and ferric chloride at rates of 0:1, 0.25:1, 0.5:1 and 1:1 molar rat

Abstract. Biogas digestate (BD) is increasingly used as organic fertilizer, but has a high potential for NH3 losses. Its proposed injection into soils as a countermeasure has been suggested to promote the generation of N2O, leading to a potential trade-off. Furthermore, the effect of high nutrient concentrations on N2 losses as they may appear after injection of BD into soil has not yet been evaluated. Hence, we performed an incubation experiment with soil cores in a helium–oxygen atmosphere to examine the influence of soil substrate (loamy sand, clayey silt), water-filled pore space (WFPS; 35
