Management practices for control of runoff losses from cotton furrows under storm rainfall. I. Runoff and sediment on a black Vertosol.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) was grown on some 550000 ha of inland New South Wales and Queensland in 1998-99, with 82% of the area irrigated, predominantly by flood irrigation in furrows (Cotton Yearbook 1999). In the...
Management practices for control of runoff losses from cotton furrows under storm rainfall. II. Transport of pesticides in runoff.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
In 1998-99, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) was grown on some 550 000 ha in inland New South Wales and Queensland, with 82% of the area irrigated predominantly by flood irrigation in furrows (Cotton Yearbook 1999). Given high...
Effects of agricultural management on tenosols in northern Tasmania.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Tenosols are soils with weak pedologic organisation, apart from the A horizon, and a weakly developed B horizon with
Tenosols are used for sheep and cattle grazing over large parts of Australia and to a limited extent for...
Effects of agricultural management on dermosols in northern Tasmania.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Dermosols are soils with structured B2 horizons and lacking strong texture contrast between A and B horizons (Isbell 1996). In the northern Midlands of Tasmania, these soils are formed on gently undulating hills and terraces...
An overview of land application of pig effluent-P using soil P chemistry and mass balance calculations.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Agricultural industries are being closely scrutinised worldwide as sources of water and soil resource contamination (Sharpley 1995; Abbozzo et al. 1996; Burkholder et al. 1997). Researchers have focussed considerable attention...
Dryland salinity in south-western Australia: its origins, remedies, and future research directions.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
The mechanisms causing dryland salinity in south-western Australia have been known for a long time. Wood (1924) thought that the zone of in situ, completely weathered rock at the base of the regolith contained a saline aquifer...
Clay mineral associations in melanic soils of South Africa.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Well-defined diagnostic horizons form the basis for present-day taxonomic soil classification systems (Soil Classification Working Group 1991; Soil Survey Staff 1998; WRB Working Group 1998). For the sake of practical...
Carbon turnover in two soils with contrasting mineralogy under long-term maize and pasture.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Maintenance of organic matter levels is a key factor in both the sustainable use of soils and the sequestration of carbon (C). Cultivation and cropping of soils often reduce soil C levels, because the input of C from the crop...
Changes with time of zinc forms in an acid, a neutral, and a calcareous soil amended with three organic zinc complexes.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Different chemical forms of zinc (Zn) are found in soils and these have different reactivity, solubility, and availability to plants (Viets 1962; Chowdhury et al. 1997). In native soils, most elemental Zn occurs in the...
Mineralisation of organic matter in intact versus sieved/refilled soil cores.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Surface-irrigation of agricultural or domestic effluents onto soils has recently become the preferred treatment option in Australasia (Schipper et al. 1996; Bond 1998; Magesan et al. 1998; Speir et al. 1999). Lysimeter studies...
Sulfur forms in bulk soils and alkaline soil extracts of tropical mountain ecosystems in northern Thailand.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
Maintenance of sufficient levels of sulfur (S) for plants and animals involves a complex biogeochemical cycle in which S is converted among various organic and inorganic forms. Nearly 95% of total S in most non-calcareous...
Measuring peat moisture content using the dual-probe heat pulse technique.(Statistical Data Included)
January 1, 2002... Introduction
There has been significant recent interest in the hydrological properties and processes of organic soils. Peatlands cover almost 3 000 000 [km.sup.2] of the Earth's surface, and New Zealand has approximately 1660 [km.sup.2] of...
