Streszczenie:

The present work is a contribution to description and understanding of the distribution and movement of water in swelling soils. In order to investigate the moisture distribution in swelling soils a detailed knowledge of volume change properties, flow characteristics and total potential of water in the soil is essential. Therefore, a possible volume change mechanism is first described by dividing the swelling soils into four categories and volume change of a swelling soil is measured under different overburden pressures. The measured and calculated (from volume change data) overburden potentia

Efforts to manage eutrophication of surface waters should recognize that macropore flow transports significantly more phosphorus (P) to surface waters via tile drains than water that percolates through the soil matrix. For the watershed-scale SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model to describe phosphorus transport through tile drains, SWAT needs to partition percolation into macropore flow and matrix flow. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of a new macropore flow algorithm on the partitioning of hydrological flows, using input data that are readily available, consiste

The success of wetland restoration projects depends in part on the length of time that a soil is in a reduced redox state.

When plants and animals die they are decomposed into microscopic particles of organic carbon.

We explored soil properties and phosphorus forms in the soils of 16 operational BRFs in Portland, OR. Since soil hydrology can significantly impact P retention, we selected BRFs along an infiltration rate (IR) gradient.

The work presented in this thesis investigates the effects of precipitation chemistry on the chemical characteristics of upland organic soils in the UK and their associated drainage waters. It also describes effects on a number of microbially-mediated processes and concludes with a study on methods for the amelioration of peat acidification. Data presented in chapters 3, 5 and 6 have recently been published or accepted for publication (Sanger et al. 1993 a. 1993 b and 1993 c). The first chapter describes the nature of soil acidity and reviews the relevant literature on the effects of acidic de

Fruit growers in Utah and other areas across the Intermountain West are faced with growing production challenges stemming from declining soil quality and water resources. Population growth presents challenges in terms of the cost and availability of land, but also presents opportunities in the form of new marketing options such as organic fruit. Few certified organic fruit orchards are operating in Utah currently, which is attributed to a lack of locally tested and adapted organic management practices. An organic peach orchard trial evaluated the effectiveness of different organic management a

The potential of proximal soil sensing methods for high resolution investigation of soils in the landscape has been investigated. This addresses the need for improved environmental monitoring and management of soils within their environs. On-the-go electromagnetic (EM) mapping has been used to map soils, providing a high resolution (< 10m) spatially defined soil apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) datalayer. Vis-NIR field spectroscopy has been trialled for in situ analysis of soil carbon, nitrogen and moisture. The portable spectroradiometer has been used at 6 sites in the Taupo-Rotorua reg

The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is a resource-conserving rice production system that uses intermittent flooding and organic fertilization. The SRI is emerging as an alternative to conventional rice production systems that use continuous flooding and mineral fertilizer only, however yield improvements with SRI have been highly variable. The objective of this research was to determine if soil properties control the yield improvements with SRI and, if so, the underlying chemical and biological mechanisms. A meta-analysis of 72 SRI vs. conventional system trials from 16 countries found a

Stormwater runoff from existing impervious surfaces needs to be managed to protect downstream waterbodies from hydrologic and water quality impacts associated with development. As urban expansion continues at a rapid pace, increasing impervious cover, and climate change yields more frequent extreme precipitation events, increasing the need for improved stormwater management. Although green infrastructure such as bioretention has been implemented in urban areas for stormwater quality improvements and volume reductions, these systems are seldom monitored to validate their performance. Herein, we

The rapid expansion of oil palm cultivation in Southeast Asia raises environmental concerns. Oil palm growers in Indonesia are faced with the challenge of sustaining high yields to keep pace with the growing global demand for oil and fats, while reducing the environmental impacts of oil palm cultivation. Environmental impacts associated with the deforestation at the initial phase of an oil palm plantation establishment are well documented, however the impacts of mature oil palm plantation on water quality remain poorly investigated. Oil palm is a perennial crop cultivated predominantly on wea

The objectives of this research were to develop and evaluate a field method for in situ measurement of soil properties using visible near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (Vis-NIRS). A probe with an independent light source for acquiring soil reflectance spectra from soil cores was developed around an existing portable field spectrometer (ASD FieldSpecPro, Boulder, CO, USA; 350-2500 nm). Initial experiments tested the ability of the acquired spectra to predict plant root density, an important property in soil carbon dynamics. Reflectance spectra were acquired from soil containing ryegrass roo
