The prediction of soil carbon fractions using mid-infrared-partial least square analysis.
March 1, 2007... Soil organic carbon content is normally measured using some form of chemical oxidation (e.g. Walkley and Black 1934) or by dry combustion (e.g. Leco carbon determinator, Merry and Spouncer 1988) as total carbon. TOC values, however, may not...
An analytical tool for understanding the properties and behaviour of variable charge soils.
March 1, 2007... Introduction
Although the fundamental properties of soils, and the processes occurring within them, change only slowly over time, the same cannot be said of our actual understanding of these properties and processes. Successive generations...

Oxygen transport in soil and the vertical distribution of roots.
March 1, 2007... Introduction
For most plants to grow in soil, a proportion of the pore space needs to be filled with air (Glifiski and Stepniewski 1985). This allows for the exchange of oxygen ([0.sub.2]) and carbon dioxide (C[O.sub.2]) gases between the...
A specialised soil corer for sampling tree roots.(Short Communication)
March 1, 2007... Introduction
To develop biomass and carbon prediction equations for whole trees, it is necessary to measure both above- and below-ground biomass of sample trees. However, exposing and measuring entire root systems is generally not...
Sandblasting damage of narrow-leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.): a field wind tunnel simulation.
March 1, 2007... Introduction
In the last 20 years, narrow-leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) has been developed into a major dryland crop species in Australia. Previously, cropping systems in southern Australia involved either continuous cereal or...

Phosphorus accumulation and other changes in soil properties as a consequence of vegetable production, Sydney region, Australia.
March 1, 2007... Introduction
Vegetable production is common in many peri-urban areas around the world and is important from many agricultural, historical, cultural, social, economic, and environmental perspectives. For example, vegetable production within...
Assessment of the influence of soil structure on soil strength/soil wetness relationships on Red Ferrosols in north-west Tasmania.
March 1, 2007... Introduction
Soil degradation is an important issue in soil conservation management in the north-west region of Tasmania, Australia (Cotching et al. 2002). Cultivation when soils are wetter than the plastic limit, or loading the soil with...
