A wind-tunnel study on saltation and PM10 emission from agricultural soils
(Elsevier, 2016-09)
PM10 emission depends on the texture and the aggregation state of a soil. A decisive but less studied factor is the saltation fraction of the soil (fraction between 100 and 500 μm). Six soils of contrasting textures were ...
Soil dry aggregate stability and wind erodible fraction in a semiarid environment of Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2010-10)
The size and stability of soil aggregates are primary factors that affect the soil susceptibility to wind erosion. Relationships among several soil properties and both the wind erodible fraction (EF) and the dry aggregate ...
Soil organic carbon sequestration potential of Pampean soils: Comparing methods and estimation for surface and deep layers
(CSIRO, 2020-12)
Estimates of soil carbon sequestration potential can help identify areas where appropriate use and management practices can be applied to convert them into carbon sinks. We estimated the carbon capacity of Pampean soils ...
Soil dry aggregate stability and wind erodible fraction in a semiarid environment of Argentina
(2010-10)
The size and stability of soil aggregates are primary factors that affect the soil susceptibility to wind erosion. Relationships among several soil properties and both the wind erodible fraction (EF) and the dry aggregate ...
Safflower productivity as related to soil water storage and management practices in semiarid regions
(Taylor & Francis, 2001-12)
In semiarid regions the availability of water has an important influence on dryland crop productivity. Water availability is closely related to soil organic matter (SOM) content, texture and soil thickness. Safflower ...
Soluble silicon in differently textured mollisols of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
Soluble compounds of silicon (Si), such as monosilicic acid and polysilicic acid, affect many of the soil chemical and physicochemical properties of the soil. In Argentina the Chaco Pampean Plain is hugely important as it ...
Effect of the intensification of cropping sequences on soil organic carbon and its stratification ratio in contrasting environments
(Elsevier, 2021-01-19)
In environments where continuous agriculture leads to soil organic carbon (SOC) depletion, intensification practices (i.e. polyculture, cover crops (CC), and crop fertilization) have been suggested as strategies to improve ...
Investigating nitrate dynamics in a fine-textured soil affected by feedlot effluents
(Elsevier Science, 2016-10)
Feedlots concentrate large volumes of manure and effluents that contain high concentrations of nitrate, among other constituents. If not managed properly, pen surfaces run-off and lagoons overflows may spread those effluents ...
Fibrous-clay mineral formation and soil evolution in Aridisols of northeastern Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2007-04)
Recent studies of soil–landscape relationships in northeastern Patagonia identified fibrous-clay minerals in calcic and petrocalcic horizons developed on old fluvio-glacial plains called “Rodados Patagónicos” (RP). The ...
