New models are presented to characterize the behavior of light nonaqueous phase liquids (LNAPL) and determine their specific volume in soils with a multimodal distribution of pores making an adaptation of the information ...

Degradation of the physical-hydric quality of the soils is one of the great obstacles to agricultural production in this country. Inadequate pasture management is one of the main factors that promote soil degradation, by ...

No-tillage (NT) systems have been increasing during the last several decades. Development of a near-surface layer of laminar structure under NT has also been reported. The objectives of this work were to determine whether ...

The conventional system for soil management and preparation has the intensive mechanization as its basic principle and that changes soil properties, especially physical ones, faster and significantly. This study aimed to ...

In this paper we present modifications to previously published models for determining the specific volume of non-aqueous phase liquids (LNAPLs) in the subsurface at and near the groundwater table following a spill or leak ...

Zero-tillage (ZT) is being increasingly adopted globally as a conservationist management system due to the environmental and agronomic benefits it provides. However, there remains little information on the tillage effect ...
