Abstract:
This paper reports a comparison of several methods for estimating the K (erodibility) factor for the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) on the basis of laboratory measurements of soil properties. All methods used the nomograph of Wischmeier et al. (J. Soil Water Cons., 1971, 26, 189-93) to calculate K on the basis of laboratory data, but the data inputs ranged from: dispersed particle sizes as originally used in the nomograph; non-dispersed particle size, measured after shaking in water; and equivalent sand size distributions, based on settling velocity distributions of particles (aggregates

Abstract Soil particle size distribution is a fundamental physical property affecting other soil properties. This research aims to determine the distribution of soil particles and the composition of clay minerals on each layer of the horizon in four soil profiles (P1, P2, P3, and P4) with different parent materials in the dryland of Aceh Besar district which includes Entisols Jantho, Andisols Saree, Inceptisols Cucum, and Oxisols Lembah Seulawah. Particle size distribution (or texture) and bulk density (BD) were analyzed in the laboratory. Soil structure and consistency were observed directly

Abstract:
Abstract The control of maximum dry density is an important issue for over coarse-grained soil. A theoretical formula of the maximum dry density for over coarse-grained soil was derived, which is related to the maximum dry density of the original soil, particle density, and mass fraction of giant particles in the mixed soil. Maximum dry densities of seven groups of mixed soil were calculated by the discrete element method (DEM) and theoretical formula, and the results showed that the maximum dry densities obtained from the DEM were always lower than the results calculated by theoretical formul

Abstract:
Particle density is used to calculate total soil porosity and related measurements such as macroporosity and water storage capacity. Methods for measuring particle density often advise using dry samples. This study measured particle density by displacement of water using both field-moist and oven-dry samples from 4 New Zealand Allophanic Soils. There were significant differences in particle density between the 2 methods. Oven-dry samples under-estimated particle density by up to 0.33 Mg/m 3 and as a result, calculations of porosity were under-estimated by up to 0.05 m 3/m 3 . Under-estimation

A substantial number of models predicting the soil moisture characteristic curve (SMC) from particle size distribution (PSD) data underestimate the dry range of the SMC especially in soils with high clay and organic matter contents.

The soil particle packing density was considered as a metric of soil structure and used to define a soil particle packing scaling factor. This factor was

Therefore, it is important to examine how OM structures influence their association with soil minerals, and to characterize other protection mechanisms. Several techniques, w
