| dc.description | The tropical soils of the humid region studied in this investigation have been grouped into two broad categories: (a) Lateritic and (b) nonlateritic. Regression equations are presented which may serve to predict any of the moisture constants considered, namely, maximum saturation, field capacity, moisture equivalent, permanent wilting percentage, and hygroscopic coefficient, on the exclusive basis of the clay content of the soils. Very high correlations were obtained in all cases for lateritic soils. Very high correlations were also found for the nonlateritic soils of the humid Tropics, excepting the values for maximum saturation. | en-US |
| dc.description | Los suelos tropicales de la región húmeda de Puerto Rico que se usaron en esta investigación fueron agrupados en dos categorías: (a) Lateríticos y (b) no-lateríticos. Se presentan ecuaciones de regresión que pueden servir para predecir, a base del contenido de arcilla de los suelos exclusivamente, las constantes estudiadas, a saber: Saturación máxima, capacidad de campo, equivalente de humedad, punto de marchitez permanente y coeficiente de higroscopicidad. Se obtuvieron índices de correlación altamente significativos en cada caso para suelos lateríticos. En suelos no-lateríticos la correlación fué también altamente significativa en todos los casos con excepción de la correlación entre la saturación máxima y el contenido de arcilla. | es-ES |
